Alaska Opinion Poll

[Laowai]

If they realistically get the codes (at least not hostile to Hackers, if nothing else, but green to either Hackers or Order would be preferable) then you are right, no matter how risky something is some people will try it. In an ideal world, this would be fine- those that RPd actually having the codes should be allowed to take that risk. Unfortunately, we live in a world of money grubbers who rarely care for RP on their traders/smugglers. They don't give a damn, if they target it, F3, and they dock, then as far as they care they have the codes. We need to deal with these idiots in a way that leaves the former, nicer group (like yourself, your previous posts indicate a respectable expectation of what should happen) still able to RP how they choose, so long as it isn't ridiculous or stupid. That's the issue here, and one suggestion that seems to be good (by popular consensus) is to alter the route so it is RPable and profitable, but not profitable enough to generate whoring. Not too hard to do, doesn't require a playerwipe, and as far as we can tell gives everyone what they want most.

Hmm ok cool.
My key issue in all this is that people who Role Play well shouldn't be penalised. And i would REALLY like to see more guarding of the gate in New York.. sometimes when i come through that gate.. i have all this RP in my head for what i will do if there are Lawfuls waiting for me... and there never are! I mean.. i know if im caught there its like being caught with my hands in the cookie jar, but it would be funny as.....
I also think more guarding of the gate at that end when and if you liberty guys can will nip a lot of this in the bud... that minefield entrance is a natural kill zone... you HAVE to fly straight out of it, you cant dodge, cant avoid anything, the only thing you can do if there is a BS or something waiting is turn around and run back to Alaska, and by that point..... you have wasted your time and money getting there.
We are never gonna stop power traders really, even if the route is changed people will probably still abuse it in some ways. There are many options to fix this issue, the ones i've said.. but another one i think would help, which is a little contrary to what i have said in previous posts, in that it would require game modding. But that would be to increase smuggling prices in other systems to attract people away from that route.. particularly with artifacts... which, lets be honest, are pointless to run anywhere else other than liberty if you want money.

Either way - there are other sneaky ways into liberty:)
