It occures to me that in EVN (Escape Velocity Nova). You are able to bribe stations, planets, and even pirates to leave you alone. (I believe this worked on nation ships to, I can't remember because I liked blowing them up.) So I was thinking, why not impliment a bribe system in the game? Say you have a strike force chasing you, you /msg one of the strike force with 'bribe' and then they send you a number, if you pay that, they'll leave you the heck alone. Good idea, bad?

I don't know...

I really try to restrain myself from making too many suggestion that shove VO in the direction of EVN (here's hoping it shows... or doesn't show, rather).

That's partially because I don't want a carbon copy of EVN (for one, it's a single player game, secondly it's intellectual property) and partially because I can't imagine the devs being ignorant of the game and its features.

Its not like I want it to be a carbon copy, and its not like a bribe system is that much to ask. Bribes are payed everyday in our legal system, I see no reason why I shouldn't be able to bribe the fighters off my arse.

Look at all the people pushing for capturable capital ships, go yell at them, cappys are gonna be way more expensive in here than in EVN.
