It is a damn game. scamming more than the run is worth is pointless.
There really needs to be some regulation on pirating. And if you did take 4000/5000 cargo, should I carry on with the trade or just die? Obviously dying is the better option, I get to restart the run.
Anyway, many of you have clearny not read my posts, if the pirate blows me up after paying, HOW THE HELL AM i SUPPOSED TO HAVE KNOWN THAT? Oh and also I played diablo 2, nop no scammerz there.
While most pirates are ok and are reasonable people behind the screen, note that there is potential for griefing here. Less so but same with navy. And trust me when I play as navy even though I may fly recklessly I always consider what impact my actions will have on the other player's discovery experience. Smuggle? Make good RP and get out of my sight. I wont KOS. Pirates, get out and I wouldn't repeatedly kill you on your exit.
