That is good to hear, Dusty. I was gonna say that I support the buff, but I'll hold that until .86 I guess.
About activity. I've found that setting goals gets people moving. Trading is about making money, but once you get to a certain point where you are comfortable and don't need credits the motivation is gone.
A few months ago OSI was almost dead. All of us were rolling in credits and running the same route over and over was boring as hell. That's when I came up with the monthly contracts that we run now. At the time they were just so we would have a little ingame representation of us being the primary Freeport suppliers. But now they have expanded to many factions. The side effect was that, with set goals, activity skyrocketed.
Just a little something for the other trading factions to think about.
