Pirates vs RP?

[Aoyagi]

Back when I was doing an LD-14 blockade, I mostly wanted to chat with the people. I gave them 3 options. Pay 6 millions for their cargo and ship, turn around and sell the stuff in the next system with no loss at all or be shot. I made some statistics for myself:
- 37 "pirated" ships
- 2 payed
- 1 chose to get shot ("kill me, I have no cargo anyway")
- 8 wanted to turn around (minor RP, but present) but then went to LD-14 above/below the plane or around the sun
- 4 turned around and went to sell the Boron (I think) to New London
- 4 actually RPed and were let to pass
- 5 started to shoot at me after or during I was typing out the lines
- 8 didn't bother to RP at all and just cruised away (ending up in flames...well one did manage to escape)
- 5 F1'd

I think there is a better chance of having a good RP session with a pie rat then a trader.
