My selfish request involving ships and shipping

So there really isn’t a RECURRING shipping industry. A group is still trying to push it, but what if we could dismantle our ships and get parts. I think that would help the shipping industry. And maybe theres other ideas for this too why it would be good. Some people may want to get some cash for their ships.

Also, speaking of shipping, it would be cool if you could setup recurring shipping contracts. Instead of having to create individual ones.

Additionally, I have gifted a lot of PRO time for the purpose of new players doing shipping. I think players who have been given PRO are more likely to purchase PRO later if gifted PRO at some time. Atleast I’ve found they had fun doing shipping contracts, but what if there was a trial period of PRO for one month? I think a trial period may make the game more money and increase conversion. And it gives the new player something to do, search for a shipping contract and find the best local LM deals. Please let me know what you think.

Counterpoint: Too easy for new players to be pirates if given free PRO

The issue with giving any amount of free PRO is that it makes it trivial for a single pirate to grift everyone’s contracts by creating new accounts from random IP address.

That’s a good point. What about a faction contract based on rep?
