Hello, I'm an "old" player. I used to mine casually and invest in more and more skills. For years I've been training skills but never actually played. And with the Omega system, I've got my skills training until November. I've got 33.8m points with very little playtime utilizing the actual skills.

However, I wanna play the actual game for a change. I used to be a very small-time pirate in low sec, but that was probably 4 years ago, and I can't even remember the basics.

Can anyone point me to a good resource on pirating, or a good corporation for it? I'm looking for someone to mentor me again on my pirating.

Well, you can check out my blog (see sig), in particular my posts starting from around September, when I too came back to the game after a long absence.

What I ended up doing was joining faction warfare for a while. You make a little isk, and you lose some cheap ships. Eventually it all comes back to you.

If you like reading about low sec piracy or wormhole pvp, you might enjoy my blog.

Will check it out for sure. Thanks!

I think I was in the same corp as you in the past. I distinctly remember Suleiman Shouaa because he and Leo Solunar taught me how to do piracy with a Minmatar Frigate. Either same corp or same Alliance.

Will see how I can get back into it and if any of my ships are still relevant anymore.

Interesting. You and Sulei don't share any corp history, but the Tuskers have historically been happy to help new players learn to pvp. There are many examples of us blowing someone up and then inviting them to come roaming with us. Pirate

Yep. That's probably what happened, back in 2011.

Oh wow! Yes I remember that. Leo took me out on my first low-sec incursion after I read some guides, then he threatened to destroy my pod if I didn't give him like 5 million ISK (I think he did). After that him and Suleiman used to take me with them to learn how to pirate.

Man...memories...
