we would eventually degenerate down to having only busses, except for those elite few how hold their ships longer than anyone else..

Hmmm, it seems to me like every1 is whining about pirates this and pirates that lately, so i can up with a great solution, every1 become a pirate, it is so simple and easy, making the game alot more fun for those who got killed befor, and it gives every1 an equal chance to get killed! Well... mabey not for the ppl who cannot pirate for their lives, like me, but what ever, go with what works!

Hmmm... It seems to me that everyone is whining about "pirates this" and "pirates that" lately, so I came up with a great solution. Everyone should become a pirate. It is simple and easy. It makes the game a lot more fun for those who got killed before, and gives everyone an equal chance to get killed! Well, maybe not for the people who can't pirate well, like me, but whatever! Go with what works!

Ummm... NO. Where would the pirates get cargo from? Other pirates? That doesn't work too well, since they just sell it. Everyone would lose money from constantly dying, and there would be nobody actually making money (from trading). Thus, everyone would be dirt poor, except for the elite few. Oh yeah, and it would suck. So, how about... NO. It's really nowhere near as simple as you would think, and it's not a very good solution at all. Sorry if that sounded like a flame, but...

/me tries to become a pirate and gives up after his tri-flare valk is killed by a 50point bot

***sigh***

Minimus

Pirate, an armed ship or vessel which sails without a legal commission, for the purpose of plundering other vessels on the high seas.

Now, if we all are pirates, who will we pirate? Pirates usually don't have valuables for long, so the universe would have an economic stand still.

Pirates would pirate bounty, which we would all have in great amounts due to the killing and such... /me regrets he even tried to reason with you guys...

~Nendain~

Exactly, Scuba. Kyrphro, your bounty only goes up by 15 for every kill you make.

Should I even start with the POTC lines? Or will you all just assume I know the whole movie by heart and make me like the God Of POTC?

POTC=Pirates Of The Carribean

You cheated.

Pirate!

-----------------------


Okay, this is the conversation I had with a pirate today. He kept saying I was ramming and I kept pointing out - if you pirate, don't get on me about ethics...

-----------------------

Sorry about the off topic, but the POTC lines...reminded me...

I won't be a pirate. :))) But i think that i must be (in future.. i'm noob, what a hell then? ).

I'm trading every day but i can't get over 300k creds cause every 4th traderun i'm pirated...

I just lost 250k.. Was pirated buy evhun, damn!!! DARN!! so i must be pirate, or i'll be out of cash.... Forever. But i don't want :))) What shall i do? :)

Just stop trading whenever there are too much pirates on, and trade whenever it's ¨calm¨. If you have the money and are willing to spend it, get yourself in a valk and shoot some pirates ;) If you do have the money, but don't have the I-can-shoot-pirates-skills, give away bounties to anyone who CAN shoot pirates (both work for me :)

Also there are just too much pirates, sometimes I think there are more pirates on than traders.... that will ofcourse never work.

All those traderoutes havent got good profit... I don't want to have 5k per traderun....

Crap.. I'm getting pirated from evhun, sf1, blitz, aka, icarus. And that's all. :)

Hirnfuhler: Pirating is not luxiurious, especially not now (for Serconian pirates, that is), as we cannot attack Neutral traders. We seldom get as lucky as I were yesterday, when I got the hold of your load of rare metals and sold them for 8k/each.

hirnfuhler: fly LONG trade routes, you will certainly find some routes with 20k profit for every run for sure then. Also don't sell all your cargo immediatly, just unload it, fly the route say 4 times, then quickly sell all your stockpiled cargo, that gives you more profit >:)

Archon, excuse me, but rare metals took evhun.. :) Or U and evhun are same man? ;)

2Sheean. I know how to trade.... I get 90k per traderun. What about not selling immidiatly? Thats good idea... thnx... :)

Yeah, Archon is Evhun.

LOL....

no comment :)

Excuse ME, but we don't have a language filter in here. Clean it up boys!

Yes master. ;)

pirating: you kill trader, steal cargo, sell cargo, gain money, and repeat

sounds like what a person does to wash dishes: scrape, scrub, rinse, dry, and repeat

no food on a plate, no dish to wash; no trader to kill, no cargo to pirate
