Traders: "Kill me now" OORP?

[Darkwolf475]

Is it better to get 3 mill cred's from one trader and have to kill 10 others or is it worth more to get 500k from everyone? Heck even a mill cred's isn't too bad on some loads.

Honestly, most pirates never ask for 3 millions credits (personally I think my max has been like 1 mil from someone who had ticked me off by running away before). You still realize that even if a pirate takes 3 mil from a trader on one run they still make a profit of well over a milllion credits generally 2mil? (this is going off you numbers of profit per run) Also, regarding the "most priates in old earth naval terms weren't rich"...in Disco you kind of need to be rich to pirate considering the transports most traders use (max lvl shields, mark vii armor upgrade, all transport turrets lvl 4). It takes a good ship with high strength weapons to convince one of those traders that its worth it to stop rather than run away.

(If the above paragraph is just a jumble of nonsense I blame my headache and fever)
