Powertrading etc

[cmfalconer]

I also agree with Zapp (an epidemic is spreading). PowerTrading is a term that gets thrown to a lot of people. I've seen it said to correctly tagged and ID'd ships that are just buzzing around hauling Cobalt or Ship Panels...not exactly huge-profit there, but nice money and in RP as well.

I enjoy the peace of trading once in a while. I will be around flying my Whale through the Omegas or through Liberty as well. If you want to RP, fly a Whale. Only the stupid pirates will blow you up...you're not much of a threat to them. I've been blowed up by several pirates whom i've tried to RP with, and I've had some of the best experiences on Disco with pirates who accept the offer. I've delivered, under Corsair escort, ship-fulls of food, water, fertilizer, etc to Crete several times in lieu of the 2million usually charged. It creates fun for many and a chance to go where i normally wouldnt.

If you want some fun as a trader, take the road less travelled. Deliver some Counterfeit software to Omega49 (as long as the Liberty lol-fuls aren't camping Manhatten). Or run the gauntlet between Rheinland and Liberty, or Bretonia and Kusari.

Or hire some of the GMG as escorts through some bad space, haul a load of H-Fuel through Rheinland to Bretonia...or anywhere. Make things exciting.

It's not always about the money. (there goes my IND application)
