' Wrote:I don't think you should attack a trader just by the ship he flys, there could be many RP reasons why he flys that ship and if he is not carrying anything dodgy then he really has done nothing wrong.
Yes its suspicious but not braking the law.
My trader flys a pirate train because for one i like the look of it and for two its good in asteroids.
But how is that RP? Most people don't RP their traders, so you have to depend on their ID, tag, and equipment to decide who they are.

I agree. As to maintaining radio silence, that gets you in trouble with real life police, so why wouldn't it do so here? And as far as ships, a quick question can be shot toward them asking for an explanation. If they respond adequately, let it go. If they don't, treat them as a non-trader flying that ship. (I.E. treat unresponsive trader flying pirate transport like a pirate- KoS for most law enforcement.)
It may be a little harsh, but letting it go promotes abuse. Plus, if someone genuinely RPs, there should be no problems.
