This isn't right at all. Why should I spend the time to get the ship that costs millions 108 to be exact and then buy the freight just to loose it why should I even bother playing the game it's now a waste of time. You will loose more and more RP'ers if this continues. 1 on 1 is fine I can deal with that but when 2 or 3 attack it's impossible. The scale of the game has turned South.
So if someone wants to be a pirate make them pay for it anyone who is a pirate put up a bounty board on all and anyone who is a pirate the full list and who is online at the time. Make the bounties high enough so it's worth while. Highlight in game on the chat channel in red when they are a pirate.
Place bounty at 4 million for low class and upwards to their ranks the higher the rank the more $$$. It isn't fair that traders suffer the most and we don't know who is who. I say this because I'm getting tired of loosing all kinds of credits because this wasn't thought through enough. If it continues I will leave the game. I'm on Skype Djoser197007, or my regular connection here, I would like some feed back
Thanks for your time
I enjoy the game play NPC's attacks are boring all I'm saying is that any ship and a pilot with skills can take on a pirate, but when your swarmed and attacked from all sides you have no chance. In real life ask yourself can you take on 2 + more attackers all at once. I bet you can't.
I really want to see a online bounty board with anyone who is a pirate posted and online at that moment wanted for undesirable attacks.If this is suppose to be as real as possible then this should be posted. In real society look at your Local police Bulletin Board they have wanted posters, and the Boarder Patrol. I'm just saying the scale is not balanced.
I have seen allot of negative response so that is good. It tells me I hit a nerve with the pirate community, and you all don't like the fact that it won't be so easy. Now you will have to duck and cover. The space flights aren't so free and rewarding.
That is my opinion..... What goes one way must go the other way to keep the scale balanced.

First and foremost,
the amount of pirates is more than low,is...almost none existing,at least compared to the amount of liberty navy police,which keeps a big stronghold of 50% of players logged at times(some really needs to organize pirates again.. )
Secondly you said that you can deal with 1v1 encounters,which of course it is true because transports gained a big buff with current version which forces pirates to hunt in groups than do it alone
Third ,bounty..well..there's plenty of them(blanket bountys which are set on Player ID and not Names) but as a bounty hunter i can tell you this..i do not log because there's nothing to hunt..pirates numbers are just low..
Last thoughts: Pirates disturbing your safe journey?
News Break: Space is Dangerous . Deal with it !
The journey would be boring without pirates. It's not right when a clan attacks that is so pathetic, I'll take on 20 if only one comes at a time if I loose I loose, I'm ok with that gang jump a person/ship is a cowards way

If you can't handle space being dangerous, that's your problem.
That is a negative attitude pilot your a pirate right you don't like the fact this was brought up because the lucrative easy money may disappear Hey I enjoy a good challenge PVP that is allot of fun. Even if I loose I still have a smile because it was a rewarding play. I just don't like it when I'm jumped by multiple players all at once. That is not right and you must agree with that.

Traders can trade in groups. Lawfuls can enforce the law in groups.
Therefore, is it so unfair that pirates can pirate in groups?
Ganking is part of the game. I used to hate it, just like you. I manned I up and carried on with my experience rather than continously complaining about it.
Also, if you really hate pirates this much when you are flying around on your trader, once you die just log something completely different. Maaaaaaybe not a lawful who's local in the area, because it's not cool to go straight and kill said pirates. Perhaps log a lawful in a different house, play a zoner, maybe play an unlawful yourself!
Oh man I really hit a nerve on that last post. Yowza...... I enjoy a fun conflict way more fun than NPC's, but what I mean is if 1V1 that is fine, I'm good with it, I'm happy even if I loose. I am still smiling because I played against another person. I don't like when a whole group attacks, there is a un written rule that should be followed it is cowardliness when a whole group has to attack. It says that your weak. If you can't stand to your opponent alone 1 on 1.
That's what we are trying to explain to you. It's called teamwork. using number advantage.
It's fine that you don't like it. It's not fine that you want to force such situations from happening.
If a group of criminals with 5 bombers are online, why should 3 of them not attack the transport? The faster they deal with uncompliant trader, the faster they can get back to their routine. It's plain and simple teamwork. Simple strategy of using number advantage to win a skirmish.
