Traders/Smugglers ignore 4Hour rule?!?!

[Appsly]

I've seen these things happening .

I read a lot on the forums here. More reading than in game time actually. I am trying to learn as much as I can.
Would it be possible to get these clarifications posted in one thread or added to the rules themselves to help clear up some of the confusions. As a newer player I understand just how hard and confusing it all is starting out.
