This is a slightly sore topic as I've got a pair of Widows sitting in low-sec which have proved to
be a less than effective investment.

I'm not currently active but over a three year period my friends and I made Aeschee and its
surroundings a hub of piracy.

As a pirate fleet in low-sec, you are typically looking to keep eyes on local gates
with a view to producing a surprise for enemy forces that you can deal with.

The Black-OPs fleet jump gave that possibility but the practicality did
not add up because of their short range and high fuel cost. It was simply
more effective to manouever fleets through the normal
jump network,

blackops is used for herassment and sniping. Jump in, kill, jump out. They are very very good at it. Stats say it all.
if you are not effective at this, then you are doing it wrong. If you want tips, look at BURN EDEN. They are the masters at it!

The only thing I could see would be a slight (maybe 1 LY) buff to range. Thats it. They are a tool, not a weapon.

i had this assembly hall topic on the old forums running with some rly good buff ideas inside. it should still be around somwhere. i kinda gave up on it a year ago after running that topic for 2 yrs. expect no love anytime soon...

If relativity equals time plus momentum, what equals relativity, if the momentum is minus to the time?

I don't thnik Black Ops need much of a buff. We've discussed that on Twitter and I have even written a blog post about it. I could agree with a small jump range buff, but nothing more. Black Ops are very powerful if used correctly, and they fulfill their role (nasty surprise) perfectly.
