Over Zealous Federal Agents.... Why cant they communicate between themselves ?

I recently took on a salvage mission for personal effect recovery. No sweat, located within 5 mins, and it was legal salvage. I went back to the system where the mission needed to be handed in, and guess what... interdicted 9 times on the way to station by federal agents, saying "Suspected felon", or "Suspected smuggler", etc. So giving in and allowing to be scanned was fine. Once perhaps or maybe even twice. Don't these guys speak to one another ? .... "I repeat suspect is clean, suspect is clean".

It took 4 attempts to to eventually get to the station, as each time I was interdicted and then went back on my way, I was further away from the station than I was when I got interdicted previously. OK, made it fun, but I would have thought that after one search it would have been enough. Just as well I am not a smuggler!!

Unfortunately, it seems to be lazy programming that is causing this. Each time you go into SC the instance is reset, so new Feds and stalkers are spawned with no memory of the previous instance.
.
I'm being plagued by the Feds at the moment. I'm trying to gain rep with a criminal group to get a permit. But I'm having trouble finding any stolen goods as I keep getting interdicted as soon as I spot a WSS.
I dropped into a SSS and rescued a couple of Fed Vipers from four pirate Vultures. It's a pity they don't have the smarts to thank you for doing this or at least raise your rep with them for a while.

Had this happen to me to. After the fourth interdiction I started bleeding the security ships up. Didn't stop the instructions but it made me feel better ��
