Why traders don't pay?

[Antonio]

I've never really had a problem with traders not paying. Just blow them up, get a free blue and move on. That is of course, if the trader actually stopped and you had an alright RP conversation after which he refused to pay.

The real problem are silent traders who don't even try to do any kind of interaction and either immediately engage you as soon as they get in range or continue to thrust away to the nearest lane, thinking they'll live. And those who actually stop when you tell them to usually just say something along the lines "what u want" or "hurry up". Those need to somehow be informed that pirates don't mean your immediate death, nor will the world end if you lose 5 minutes on a conversation instead of trading.
