Hello to my fellow pilots Cool

I'm curious to know your thoughts about pirating in eve online?

Are you a pirate? If so what is that makes you enjoy killing and destroying
The innocents?

If your not a pirate and dislike them what can you do to get revenge
On the pirates that ruined your day? They seem to all hide and come
Out when an easy kill jumps through the system.

What are your thoughts on this matter?

I wasn't so much a pirate as a merc. It was something I just phased out of and stopped doing, no other reason.

My alt is a pirate. Feels good to get tear mails. Disregard concord, acquire beetches. Whenever I get hate mail I always reply, "u w0t mate?! Fight me irl!" That usually gets another rise.

Everytime you read this you are required to send 100 million isk directly to me.

The only real pirates of this game are those that steal ore from the kingdom of James 315 without paying for a mining permit.


See Bio for isk doubling rules. If you didn't read bio, chances are you funded those who did.

Respect. Cool


Nope not a pirate. I sell war goods mainly, so pirates are one part of my customer base.

I am not really sure what being "innocent" has to do with the random number generator of being a random victim of a crime? "Innocent" people are killed everyday in RL, not sure what your point is here?

Not a pirate, don't dislike them or any other profession in EVE, but the standard way of seeking revenge in EVE for whatever is to kill them or pay to have them killed repeatedly....

My general thoughts about pirates in EVE is neutral in the good vs evil paradigm, but I LOVE player interaction because without it, I could not rake in the profits from marketing like I do. Lol

I'm not a pirate by any means, but I can understand the pirates being part of the game, its really no different from the tall ships pirates days that preyed on merchant ships. They also preyed on easy marks, generally they left alone the ships that has a escort or too many guns.
Pirates is part of the risk of Eve. and something you just have to live with.

The issue of Pirates preying only on the week was summed up for me by Abssm years ago...

PVPers look for the fight

Pirates look for the profit.

No profit in losing your ship.

Piracy can be a profitable occupation with the right corp. As for revenge Pirates by their nature will do all they can to avoid being caught, but there are ways.

Scammers are currently selling killrights on this toon for up to 5mil, if you have paid for this service demand your money back at once.

Killing me should be for free.

What if you're not a pirate, but don't hate pirates?

Now, more than ever, we need a dislike button.
