I am too, as a proud member of the Slaver's union, I've discovered that the faction, and the ID in general, is mostly pointless. I'm much better off with a smuggler's ID, as the tradeoff for losing the ability to dock...uhm, on 90% of lawful bases is that I could steal things from people...and I have, just once, encountered someone I could steal from. People are not moved around enough to make the slaver ID a worthwhile addition to the mod, which is quite frankly, very sad.
HEY GUYS I HAVE AN IDEA to kill two birds with one stone!
Simply edit the Slaver ID to also allow Slavers to demand non-human cargo from Liners only.
That way, there will be less of an incentive to use liners, and give Slavers more opportunities to interact.
Less incentive to use Liners -> allows room to increase the efficacy of Liners without worrying so much about Loliners.
Personally, it's somewhat annoying to be on my slaver and watch an OSC-tagged ship full of luxury food simply pass by in silence... Although it's probably not annoying to the OSC pilot.
To ensure that my opinion is not too biased: I have a ship in the Slavers Union and an OSC Luxury Liner.
