New player here that started a week ago. Today I warped into another system and a freighter fleet was being attacked by pirates. Ok, I’ll be your savior! Almost die in a firefight with SEVEN enemies, and what happens at the end? “Civilian fleet engaged. sentinels on route” um what? I just SAVED YOU from the pirates trying to kill you, and your thanks is… Sicking these damn robots on me? Let me guess why… A stray laser hit your shield while I was barrel rolling in 19 different directions fending off these pirates… FOR FREE! I didn’t last much longer being out of fuel and 15% shield left, but I’m sure those very nice traders made good use of my scrap metal from my ship.

Yeah, it’s a hard pass from me, from now on, yall enjoy being a smoldering wreck on the ground.
