What's your opinion on this? I run a pretty standard trade route from Lusonda to LTT 8517. Buying crop harvesters in Lusonda to sell in LTT, buying slaves in LTT 8517 to sell in Lusonda. Overall, the profit is around 430,000Cr(90% being from the slaves).
Like, I know it's a videogame, but when I started it felt a little dirty. You know, trafficking humans and all that. But I got over that as soon as the money started rolling in(430k is pretty good for me, I'm not [i]that[/i] far into Elite).
To trade slaves to make that bank or to not trade slaves because it's a shitty thing to do?

I don't care what's in the canisters as long as they're paying for them. Could be dead baby kittens for all I care.

I'm from the south so it's pretty natural for me

How did you smuggle into Lusonda. Did you just book it full speed?

Money talks, bullshit walks, and I like $$$$

Im going to get into Trading at some point, but I flat out refuse to get involved in the slave trade. The only time you'll catch me selling slaves is if I just blew up a wanted slave trader. I couldnt leave em to die in space, I'll sell them to a legitimate trader. I get my bounty, a bit of extra on top, and the mild satisfaction of knowing that the innocents who were caught up in my crossfire still have the chance to earn their freedom.

What ship do you use? I've said it before, I was against it from a moral standpoint but I find myself in need of credits and a better ship so... Who needs morals in space?

"He started in to dealin' with slaves and something inside of him died..."

Edited by Kankunation: 9/1/2015 5:18:47 AMMy take? Generally my rep, influence and wallet go up when I smuggle them. Systems get economic booms. If everyone is ok with it then so am I. Though there was that one time I jetisoned a load of them into a nearby star...

What color and gender are the slaves? #gamergate

Looks like I'm getting an Xbone for this.
