Edit: Nicely done there, burning traffic control!! Just got fined me as I overshoot my landing pad, fly over another burning pad.
Fining ambulance for speeding IRL would be very much appreciated.
I feel they are short for Gasoline, need bring them more.

If you are near my FC and have some tritium to sell, let me know, I could max the price for a short trade window.Wow, looking at yo guys balance make missed the money transfer function between players in other games(namely eve online) so much..... that I would beg some from you guys

What is your max cargo capacity?
Just promoted to Lt. Cmdr, waiting for next federal navy xxx mission
I've done it again. 10.5kLs to a station to find I'm looking at the Sell page, not the Buy.
A self inflicted grind through not reading the small print, while getting allied (way past friendly) with the Party of Yoru in the wrong system. Finally got an invite to hang out with Zach Nemo and his exotic menagerie, while also tweaking the Pacifier. Phew! Just got to go see Broo now and the hard points will all be dastardly
Ok, I'm going BBQ again. Post Cmdr now at 54%. 9 Rep+++ missions (was 10... 1 accidental click on influence reward... 
) raised it 64%. I need some Ice + Beers.

Honestly, now that you talk about it, the people we save... there should be a hefty bonus for having cold beer to serve on board.Ok, I'm going BBQ again. Post Cmdr now at 54%. 9 Rep+++ missions (was 10... 1 accidental click on influence reward...

Why do you think they (usually) pay that 100k bonus per group?
These m__erf____er !? But yes, most of them are generous enough to give 100k & rep+++
Btw, the end is near!!!
Spent some time stacking massacre missions and did Empire and Federation rank missions in between. End result? 2.7 billion creds, Empire Baron and Federation Petty Officer ranks. Now grinding away at the CG supporting the Scriveners clan, 17,668 tonnes hauled so far.
Trading profits are excellent today, and I need some space bucks to buy Tritium for my carrier. I used a fair amount on my last exploration excursion, so I want to top off the supply.
As always, Big Tony (my T9) was happy to do the heavy hauling.
I had something happen today that never happened before, though. I often get interdicted by pirates when doing trading runs, it comes with the territory. But it's always been just 1 pirate, or rarely 1 pirate per system I jump through. I've never had 2 pirate attacks in the same system while traveling to the sell station.
The only time I've had multiple attackers like that was when on a mission, which is expected. The system was Low Security, so perhaps that mattered. No cops showed up to help, that's for sure.
Big Tony does not run from pirates. He blows them up or drives them away. So I wound up having 2 fights on the way to sell my cargo. My shields weren't even recovered from the first fight when the second began.
The second pirate even had hatchbreakers. The little bastage managed to pry 3 tons of my cargo out and loaded them into his own ship during the battle.
Pirate #1 went up in a plume of smoke and fire. Pirate #2 did the same, and when his ship exploded the cargo he stole from me was released into space.
I could have picked it back up, but I left it there for his children to gather. I wouldn't want them to go hungry.
Besides, his bounty was worth considerably more than the 3 tons of lost cargo.
Each run looked like this, nearly 31k profit per unit. I remember when 3k was considered fantastic. But back then I didn't have Tritium to buy for freaking 49k per ton. 4000 Tritium costs nearly 200 million credits these days. So I guess it all balances out.
All in all, it was a good day of trading.

Extra points for thinking of the children!
You know they're gonna grow up to be pirates like their dad, right?
Future generations of Elite players will suffer for this.
Just think of the bounties!
But how are the future elite players going to become Elite if there are no pirates to shoot?
We still have system authority vessels to shoot in CZ??
They are on the highway for a quick unite in the afterlife man..... You......

My CG participation at exactly 35,000 tonnes right now. I'm at a point where my brain does all the required movements without active thought, as in, I have no idea what's happening, things just get hauled in front of my eyes.
