Pirate etiquette

[Exsiled_one]

I'ld never pirate anyone for 500k. Actually, I just take cargo, it is shame to take cash... Really no need for that. Maybe if they're really on my way while i go to sell what I pirated.

I pirate around 1500 Cargo for 4.5-5k cargo ships, I pirate 1000 for less. Zoners, usually ones on route that goes directly trough 41, get pirated for 2k cargo, hoping they'll change their route or start cooperating with the Corsair bases. I dont mind if he never comes around, there's more of those I pirate that will come back.
I'ld pirate a lvl 40 camara for his 25 of 200 engine components, just so he knows who he has to deal with eventually. I have no issues with that, I take a cutt, and I take it to whoever. Only thing I don't touch is things that aren't of profit to Corsairs. But for real. Alien Organisms? Never.
I don't know how can you pirate for 500k, there's no point in it. People just pass trough then, pay you, and come to you freely, without any fear from you. I get the thrill of the chase. Outwitting and some occasional skirmish with brave few that take escorts. Besides, small piracies on well known routes encourage powertrading.
