Pirating is a crimnal activity. Therefore they should expect no respect off other players. There is some sort of honour thing that pirates like to think they have where they rasome you in exchange for not podding you but to be honest never trust any pirate when they ransome even if they are the type that keep there word although in my experience most dont.
Dont get me wrong pirating is fine if you choose it but I just dont like them to complain on forums when they get podded. I would personaly use any underhand tactic to pod a pirate including podding them even if we had come to an arragement that I'd let them go for a fee.
Why would i do this? simple because you a crimnal pirate scum and the less profit you make from piratting the better.
My experience of pirates in eve
1. Most just pod you and are not bothered with ransomes 2. If you do pay the ransome they hardly ever respct there own supposed honour code. 3. Often use insulting smack talk in local
Pirates presume because they think they have some sort of honour code that non-pirates must respect this code as well I personally dont niether should any other player.
In conclusion DEATH TO ALL PIRATES YARR!

Hello alt.
If you would break your word against a pirate then you have no grounds to complain against those that do the same for you. A ransom is a mutual trust.
Your experience of pirates seems quite limited, perhaps you should consider moving systems or just staying in the 0.5+ "sandpit"

Agreed, I've very rarely heard of a pirate complaining about being podded. We at ATUF keep to our word, however... if I meet you somewhere my friend, you won't be getting a ransom demand

I wouldnt call gankers pirates theres a difference there. imho Gankers = they attack everything and pod you. Pirates = they ransom and dont blow you up if you pay...
Some are honorable some are not. Stop generalising.

Sure in an ideal world a pirate would take a ransom and honor it and go yarrr, but really pirates in rl are equivilent to the modern day criminal. Takes what he can get and if he finds out that a victim will happily pay 5 mil to let his industrial ship pass he isnt in some popular pirate corp that honor the code and he already has -10.0 security status what does he have to lose.

A True pirate wouldn't complain about being podded, as he understands that it is simply one of the risks of the occupation. Likewise with respecting a ransom. If one intends to live off of the money they get from piracy and they want to do it off of ransoms, then building up respect and trust with their clients is the only way to do it. Acting like a professional is the key. ______________________________

Uhmm what about the pirates repuation? even if hes not in a famous corp if the pirate dosnt honour the ransom they run the risk of having their name pasted all over the forums! This is bad for pirates who pirate for mony.
I always pay ransoms! In fact i wish the NCP gate rats had ransomed me last nite before tey blew up my iteron. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Lav ya lots! -Aleria |

Cearbear Scums:
1. When you ransome their ship or pod they often log off. 2. If you then kill em they usually send you some lame hatemail, saying you are an crap pvp pilot because you killed them logged off and not online... 3. They often make lame posts about pirates. 4. They say they will hunt you down with thier alliance and kill you, but never happens...

The only problem I have with pirates is that they destroy others people hard work/time, up to several month. And this is exactly why they are human waste and need to be removed from space. Keep the universe clean

I've been around a lot of "evil pirates"
Make no mistake the smack comes from the victims, not the pirates.
There are always exceptions though.

"Hahahahaha I totally just owned your defenseless Iteron f'ing noob! You suck at EVE!! Oh, now give me 10mil for your pod" I'm sorry but I don't see that being very...helpful. As it's been stated, pirates who pirate for money will always try to make money rather than lose it. Thus, they will keep to their word, though there ARE exceptions, but when aren't there?

jesus..........
first off, why do you assume pirates do anything for respect? quite frankly, i dont give a rats who i kill, or if i get killed. why wouldnt i ransom you? because id rather watch you cry over losing your implants and sending me tons of eve-mails calling me incredibly offensive things in russian or something.
secondly, why are you complaining when "pirates" complain about getting podded on the forums? isnt this exactly what you're doing right now? whining because you died at the hands of a pirate?
your experience of pirates in eve?
1 most pod you, because its funny when you whine. 2. most pod you regardless, because its funny watching you whine. 3. most smacktalk in local, because its funny watching you whine.
hmm.....
and lastly, why do you proclaim to hate pirates so much, and then conclude your post with "YARR"? Einstein. ----- Inappropriate Signature image removed, please contact us at [email protected] if you have any questions - Imaran

Can i correct you? please?
Its about killmails not ransoms. Kill mails make your Knob bigger not ransoms. The whole PVP coummiunity is obsessed AFAIS with kill mails.

Cheese and fricken' rice!
1. If I pod you, it's because you didn't pay the ransom. TWICE! Yes, I give you two chances - one to save your ship, and another to save your pod. When you block my convo request the 2nd time, you get podded. Geddit?
2. See above. I do not kill either the ship or the pod if the ransom is paid. Unfortunately, about 0.0000001% of my targets currently agree to a ransom.
3. I don't speak in local unless it's with somebody I know. I do, however, get smacked in local an lot because I destroyed a 400mm plated 'Phoon in my Caracal. "OMGNOES! You ******** ***** I'm new you ****!" So why the feck you flying a Phoon you tit? I wouldn't hit you if you were in a Rifter FFS!

i like pirates! as a miner/production they are the virus that keeps the galaxy running. when a pirate blows up a ship i get payed, when the pirate dies i get payed, when alliances of pirates declare war on each other im rich.
its the stupid pirates that need to be tough a lession. you know the ones whop come up and ask for ~1billion isk. i dont know maybe the dumb pirate think every player they come across is loaded with cash when really they only have few million. ive come accross more stupid pirates sadly then smart ones. maybe the dumb ones hang around .4 to .1 space. could some of you OMGWTFBBQPWNZ pirates plz kill these ppl they are getting on my nervs... - - -

This topic gets official "Kuolematon Approves"-seal.
Whenever you attack someone or being under fire by someone .. DONT TALK TO THEM!! It's key factor here as I have always said.
Most piwates here works like school bullies that gets their "vibes" from the whines and hatemail you give 'em in form of smacktalk. Don't do it.
There are some few persons out there who one might consider to be a "real pirate" but most of people are just after killmails and frags.
Enjoy your PUBLICKILLBOARDSYNDROME!

Edited by: Grimwalius d''Antan on 16/01/2006 09:27:03 Pirates would ransom if it weren't for: 1. Sentrys 2. Morons who think they are being anti-pirate by smacking you and telling you you don't deserve their money 3. Morons who think an average ransom is 300k, as opposed to 3-30 mil depending on their ship size, which makes them resiliant to pay because they expected to get away with nothing 4. People who don't even notice the pirate is trying to ransom them, perhaps because they have never come across this sort of thing before 5. The asswipes who has pretended to be pirates only to pod someone after a ransom, which makes carebears believe EVERY pirate does this 6. That practically the only people you can manage to capture long enough to ransom are morons or just newbies who don't have any ISK to begin with 7. Higher chance of success if the goal is just to loot
If you really think pirates should ransom you instead of just loot you, TELL THEM. Don't expect a pirate to go through all the trouble of convoing you while he is in a rough spot (tanking sentrys). Most people don't want to pay anyhow. If you're willing to pay to save your ship: MAKE THAT OFFER. It is pretty the same thing much how you gotta give up if you want the police to arrest you rather than take you down. Or wave at the taxi rather than just stand around and expect him to pull up and ask you if you need a ride. Be quick also. If you don't pay within 10 seconds, you're gonna lose your ship if the pirate is tanking sentrys. Don't mess around, follow the fast demands and hope for that he is not one of the (few) morons who doublecrosses ransom victims.
I also think pirates should be given no mercy. Keep that to the actual acts of revenge however, don't smack and discriminate the player. The player is a person just like yourself, he does not deserve your bull**** attempts at self justification.

In the game you will always get someone that doesnt' keep there word, I for one always do and i've not know a pirate not to yet ! if we ransomed people and then podded them after then soon no one would pay a ransom.
To be honest I only ransom when in a pack as I would rather take your corpse home, or some of you aren't worth the hassle of a ransom and a few million is nither here or there !
Steven Gerrard seems to have been podded this weekend, o so touchy, did you pay a nice fat ransom only to be podded? with your attitude I might have broken the code and given you the ransom back !
Good luck ransoming a pirate as being podded is something we accept hence no implants !
