to wake the RP on the server what you think of contraband scanning on traders from the navy/police clans?

they can choose what kind of commodities that should be contraband

it would be cool :D

Well I tought the navy was already doing that... at least they used to. Maybe the question is, what navy? Is there any navy left?

Btw, all commodities already have a description of either they are illegal or not. No point in having to choose wich ones are what.

:D BBD when they were Navy did it very succesfuly in New London.  Mind you we do seem to be short on Navy at the moment - who have we still got?  n*o (well they are Order realy) 4S and SEF, SF even ..... Where did the rest go to - remind me please.   I like the idea  - "Do Your Duty!"   The problem is an old one "rp or not to rp? Tha is the question..."  Good luck with it chaps, its go my backing.
;)

Good that you mentioned this Wolfie, we should start do scanning again but in Omicron Aplha I will kill more traders than pirates I guess  :D

Maybe an official list of what is illegal, and where, and what is legal and where could be created.

To add to the RP, maybe navy clans could set up commodity bans, and someone caught carrying a certain commodity in a given area will be asked to drop their cargo.

As things like Mezzrat Warriors, Counterfeit equipment etc are very rarely carried because they have no value in trade (as far as I know) then they would really become useless for this kind of thing.

Maybe if some new, long, and profitable routes for these items were to be created, they would be very good for including RP, as the Navy AND pirates will harrass/attack these traders. We might even end up with pirate convoys, if some trade routes like this were created, the RP that follow them could be immense.

i think you all forget one of the largest clans on the server is navy, " Dacia".

there are some very good paying trade runs for contraban and you can run the mezz wariors and make almost a 1million from and to the right base. but it is a little bit of a long run. same goes for the females.
classified alein research has a good run in combination with temp alloy and niobuim over 2 million credits.

so there are alot of 2 million plus profit runs out there, but hey you all dont want to go look in the new systems so it is your loss. plus you ever seen a zoner mission "NO" not in the old 64 systems you wont but in the new systems you can find zoner missions against the pirates that pay up to 990k and really help you rep with zoners and almost ever other npc except the pirates ,nomads and fugitives. :D  :D

but back to topic i think it is a good ideal to scan, navy use to do it all the time.
