The attitude that is killing the server is allowing pirates to be ****s to traders.
We didn't have this problem back in the day when there were strict demand limits, as soon as those were gotten rid of pirates started demanding 5 mil, 10 mil, often even more, since then all pirates have wanted is blue messages, before that they were great, they'd demand a few mil, you'd pay, and everyone would be happy because everyone got a few credits and no one had all their time wasted.
Whoa. I've been here for, like, twelve seconds, and I can tell you that you're playing the game wrong.
You can't win at Disco (just like my Uncle Bruce used to say about the seventies ). It's not like the person with the most credits at the end of the month gets a free t-shirt. (edit: I assume... even though that would be awesome)
Personally, I've been running the Gallic blockade of Leeds for three days, and literally no one has even tried to stop me. Profitable, but boring as all getout. So I guess all those poor refugees are going to be left stranded while I go look for some resistance to my making buckets of cash. It's just more fun that way.
