i just thought of this and im extrememly tired so i hope it comes out alright.
ok, we all want some form of affirmative action to take place on us if we are engaging in illegal
activities in the open or heck maybe in a cantina. what the Devs should do is, place an undercover npc/gaurd/imp whatever, in
the cantina, for example, someone who is unclickable or maybe is and they tell a story or is some kind of vendor. maybe hand
out some kinda mission, a usuless one. anyway, if we start slicing in a cantina with the npc around, that will increase the percentage of being agrod. they could even be placed around towns and cities. though, im sure people will just pay attention
to their names , but they could do random name spawns or something. maybe have the npc just roam around, go in and out of places. course there should be more than one placed around cites/towns.
sound good?

Wouldnt that be the same effect as the random cantina raids they have now? I know when I am slicing I am not looking at my radar so I would probably get caught not paying attention by the normal searches.

how about at any said time 2% of the npc's on a planet including trainers are narcs and they randomly shift around. If you trade a sliced item within 32m of said narc you are then reported and a special police force is sent after you?

I want to be on a terminal for slicing into a govermental database, not for slicing some dudes sidearm.
Come on. It makes no sense to get on the terminal for slicing one weapon in public. But stealing information from the empire, yes.

While I do want to eventually end up on the Bounty Hunter terminals, I want it to be because I was Smuggling. I also don't want it to happen before a Smuggler is capable of standing up to a Bounty Hunter.

My sentiments exactly... Of course, then it would be hilarious as we watch BHs FD on us.

What would be funnier is if that FD'ing BH realized that the Smuggler they're fighting has a line of Commando and proceeds to flame him to black bar heaven!

yes I didn't think getting on the terms for slicing weapons and armor was good which is why i went more of a crackdown approach in my post...
Also though when they do eventually put us on the boards I hope they institute some more fast talking/bribery type options as well.
Actually could be a cool escape tool to be able to bribe the local authorities to attack your attacker or detain him in a case of "mistaken identity"
