I have to say something, if it counts.
Many people do not want to RP the merchant/miner. Due to the fact that they need money, they are forced to make one. their heart will never be into it, and they will never really be able to RP him. Either that, or the Boredom stuplifies them. When someone forced into a tedious task that they never wanted to do or RP as in the first place, they will react VIOLENTLY, to any increase in the amount of time required.

I completely agree with this statement. Alot of people see trading or mining as a means to an end. I like to RP and fly my ships. I have to trade or mine to support those ships and support changes in storylines. Personally I absolutely abhor trading, it is monotonous, tedious and above all boring as hell. Then you get lolpirates who go 2mil or dai and that just makes things stupider. Now a person has to trudge through trading for countless hours to fund a ship they want to fly. Not everyone has the time to in order to make money with the current system. Most people just want to play the game. So what if a field is a bit better than others? I would rather there be a few above average fields or trade routes spread over the houses then everything be dead equal with the total profit per hour equaling less than what a homeless guy with a sign asking for money on the street could make.
