' Wrote:All i have to add is, STOP ROBBING TRADER's WHO ARE EMPTY!!!. Make's no sense. I even fly alot with no bat's/bot's, so i will loose nothing. I find it ooRP, so i will say to pirate //kill me then. i have no cargo/ammo to loose, so why pay you.:angry:
It depends on where you are. Sometimes a pirate might just need money to fund a raid, or maybe they don't like you there in the first place? Sometimes it is OoRP for a pirate to pirate an empty trader (like a Rogue), but sometimes it makes more sense than you might think.
' Wrote:ryoken, one question, you are not roleplaying when you are empty? as empty trader you loose. your life.....
He's right on that. Is your life not as important as some cargo? Escape pods don't have a 100% survival rate...'
And on topic: If any pirate asks you to pay from 10k away, they have no clue how to pirate. Better to ignore them, then, or, better yet, roleplay an argument with him. Those are fun!
Also, don't be static with RP when playing a trader. If a pirate is pirating you, and you have been there for five minutes, the pirate is going to be annoyed or afraid in RP. What kind of a pirate wants a pirating run to take a long time? Not I. Probably not any other ones, either. Remember, pirates have bigger priorities than whether or not you make money or whether or not you're comfortable with paying them. They want your money, end of story. When you ask a lot of questions, it takes longer, and it makes the pirate less comfortable, and he's the one with the guns.
