Trading - Brainstorming Changes

[Benjamin]

Make it faster and more brutal. have money made faster, have pirates kill you/charge more/take all your stuff more often. If people veer away from freelancers/independent traders/zoners, they get relationships. Friends, enemies. bretonian and kusari corporations can attack each other, right? Why's no one running with that? It's basically combining piracy and trading.
If people played corporations more like actual factions in their own right, rather than just trading factions, I think there'd be more of that. Inter-corporation fighting would be great. Having your personal enemy pirate (like Hackers for Ageira) being fed info by some plucky ALG patriot to hunt you down.
Have tradeships more eminently killable, but also more deadly themselves.
Make it fast, make it focused on player interaction, make it fun.

Basically, this idea i have right here isn't enough of an idea to take seriously. It would need dynamics. Corporations being able to shut off their bases/commodities from other factions as alliances move around. Corporations being able to attack other people more freely. Traders needing to lose their protections (not the ones against caps though, that would still suck).
