So in the end, Barge / Corvo changes - useful or no?

[Findarato Veneanar]

Without jump trading they are way worse than 5kers, the basic speed:cargo ratio is about equal to that of a 5ker, but they couldn't really be used with trade lanes(the old model could, but i never saw anyone do it with the newer model, though perhaps some of the bargemasters might have been able to do it with enough time), a lot of bases were a pain to line up the quickdock with(normal docking generally doesn't work with barges), they liked to get stuck in jumpholes(idk about jumpgates), they were a pain to get through asteroid fields, i swear the devs coded it so that npc flight paths would generate in the barges path, npcs would constantly spin them around, the turning speed was slower than that of the planets, people would try to pirate them for heaps of credits, many players would be pingases if they didn't have a pirate ID by ramming them to make them spin or(*gasp*) CD them, the cruise took several minutes to charge.
All around they were the worst ship ever seen in discovery, only the most masochistic of pilots willingly flew them.

Basically i agree with sin, bring them back without the ability to jump or dock at POB's.
And then make them buyable for the general public freelancers included.
