So guess what? I just encountered my first player in a long time, and you know what? He tried to blow me up,... in the station... with 100 tons of basic medical supplies, lol. Guess some people just want to see the world burn. Oh well, to solo to do the objective I guess. He was in a Vulture, and literally just attacked me while I was in auto-docking. Pretty ballsy. He was probably killed by station security, but I didn't stick around long enough to see. or at least I hope... I would name him, but naming and shaming, you know. Just be warned, there is a Vulture in ELEU killing defenseless traders. Real shame, I was excited to finally see another player in so long.
Pirates/Murders will always show up at CG's for profit/lolz. I recommend trying to recruit some BH's/White Knights to run security in the system. Maybe find some combat escorts for the trade ships. As much as you may not like it, this is part of the game. It is tempting to go to solo but it is so more satisfying turning the table on them.
Good luck CMDR's
I have only just begun the game but if this is still ongoing and i can get on later i might join in the drops. Not sure yet, i have only got a basically equipped sidewinder (yes i am that new to dangerous)
On route in a maxed vulture if someone wants to wing up. NO TO PIRATES
Mavrac need anyone else
