Cargo piracy

[Anathema]

If a pirate asks 1 million of any of my traders, I'm happy. I'll pay instantly. The problem is the average demand in the last 2 months has been 7 million. That's the demands I've had, averaged.

Just remember there's someone on the other end. If you demand all of their cargo because you think they'll whine anyway, you might not be right.

Personally when I'm pirating, I pirate for 1 million or less. Because I play pirates for the RP, and I don't like people being upset as a result of me. If I want to make money, I'll log on my trader.

As for cargo piracy, I've just had people sit on the sale point side of gates / holes at the end of a long run. It's worth it. But I'll tell you what, make an over the top demand, and you'll get a runner, or if the trader's smart, some very charred cargo.

QFT.

There are unreasonable demands, and getting all cargo from a ship is among them. If you demand all cargo from a trader, he will run 100% of the time... and with a very good chance will blow up his cargo instead of giving it to the pirate.

Treat other people with respect and reasonably and all will be fine. Do not, and we will have a crapload of threads complaining either about pirates or traders.
