Pirating, amount of money

[BaconSoda]

But you won't be stopping goods getting into Kurari if you are extorting the pirates(Farmers are ment to stop forren traders not extort them). Pirates steal goods to eather use or sell or because there a rival on there patch which they are trying to "defend". Pirates don't Extort drivers.

Think about it like this: If I take your money, you make no profits, and don't want to come back. No one gets hurt, the KNF has no evidence and can keep turning a blind eye, and the gaijin leave quietly, it's a win-win. Otherwise, I would be destroying the cargo, and that is also a plus, but sometimes us farmers need money too.

TBH i don't care if there in a bomber or a fighter, both can get shields down easily if they hit the target. Turret mode is less accurate then normal mode, when ur in it gives a trader NO Manoverability, so there is no chance to dodge any shots, fighters on the other hand can easily dodge shots, one thing to remember is that transport guns don't fire fast, so a fighter can easily dodge them if he actualy uses the Horizontal and Vertical thrusters.

I'm not going to argue about transport vs fighter anymore. I made a poll about that earlier in the year.

Guess you have never watched any Sci-Fi. People don't go, oh look my ship is getting blown to bits, ill just stay here. Insted they run to the escape pods when the ship is extremely damaged.

You know, I never thought about something like escape pods elsewhere. I thought too simplistically there, and you're completely right.

Never would a "Bandit" extort a trader and let him go on his merry way, especialy a Farmer, whos goal is to STOP forren traders on there patch, not tax them. If you can find instances in real life where lorry drivers have been extorted for about half the sale price of goods there carrying and then let go on there merry way then ill stop saying its OORP.

You don't seem to understand. Mugging happens when your a person on the street who is only carrying a wallet. Mugging would only be compairable in FL if its a Fighter mugging a Fighter. You don't mug a lorry driver who is carrying 50 grands worth of PC's in the back and leave them there. Your argument is extremely flawd.

See above about the farmers. If I can't carry the stuff on my other guys, then why should I try and take it? I could more than happily take your money instead. Why should I try and take 5,000 Diamonds or Boron when I know I can only take 65 units of it? I would much be much happier just taking money instead. It's kind of more of a reverse mugging in the terms you described mugging in...

Since groups like the LSF etc just camp one system, as long as you stay out of the main "home" systems you don't rearly have any risk.

That's just Liberty. When the RM hear about an LWB or Hessian in Stuttgart, they jump on us. I have first hand experience about that matter....

For the 50th time, crooks rob transports cargo, they don't extort the drivers for half the sale price of the goods and then let them go because the transport driver WOULD NEVER HAVE THAT MUCH MONEY ON THEM. What is so hard to understand. Boy people need to learn what RP is.

It seems that we're both going around in circles with the same arguments, yes? Why not just agree to disagree instead of making personal attacks on whether or not the other knows how to RP or is capable of comprehending things?

EDIT: I do believe that the LN & LSF are moving around more. Afterall, who pirates at Manhattan besides Xenos? There is always a Dready patrol right outside...
