' Wrote:So in other words if you are a trader it is shut up pay up and don't bother to role play because pirates are allowed to role play it as much as they want but a trader is just supposed to pay up and get out right?
If i am stopped and RP'ing with you in open chat it is highly unlikely i am calling for the cops. Personally if i stop i am going to pay up because there is not much chance of getting away once you stop. So why not RP it out and get paid instead of blasting me the instant you decide it is time to. I can see where if a trader is close to a gate and is inching towards it that you might need to open up on them but if the guy is dead in space and chatting he will most likely pay up. Unless like one of the posts above you make outrageous demands before you kill him. (which if i have read correctly is against the rules and can get you sanctioned)
I have run into several pirates who RP very well and some who could use just a bit of improvement and then there are the ones who all you ever hear from them is "HALT 2 mil or die". We each have our own style and role we like to play so we need to have a little more fun with it and see how it goes. You never know you might enjoy the game a lot more and maybe just maybe more players will start trying to RP better instead of the dreaded "2 mil or die" crap that you see much to often.
Not quite like that but dont exspect an epic tale. They have the gun to your head. You have a few choices and not long to make them.
If your empty, your crew can still be sold as slaves to the Junkers and OC.
