About 8 months ago I posted about Reviving Pirate Ship Logs and tying it to exploration content. Since then, the concept has received overwhelming positive support with only one person having issues with the idea.

I think this simple idea has a lot to offer long term and it would be great if the CSM would bring this up with the CCP devs at some point. I know that Malcanis is aware of the idea (he thought it was pretty good, iirc), but I don't know if it has had any movement since then.

TL;DR - Restore pirate ship logs to the loot table. Allow them to be bought and sold on the market. They can be used / analyzed to create an expedition. Future iterations on the concept may include special mission arcs for pirate factions, and combining a set of logs for special expedition.

This concept could even be used as a way to find the new "Ghost Sites" being released.

CCP Sreegs is my favorite developer.

I still think its a pretty good idea! As soon as S I get properly back online I'll try and pursue it.

I can't make any promises; the PvE team might well have their own plans in mind that don't include pirate logs, but I'd like to at least see them brought back to empire. They could be a valuable tool in encouraging newer players into exploration and visiting non-CONCORD space.

As much as I am PvE averse myself I know many who would welcome this as interesting content.
