Honestly, Piracy was killed of by the huge influx of immature smack talking griefers who call themselves pirates, all the honest pirates have left or moved to the background.
Faceless alt 1, Crime and Punishment 0.
When you know where to look, piracy is still very much alive in Eve.
Sadly most of the mainstream stuff seen now is people craptalking eachother, sitting in gatecamps podding rookies and bigging themselves up with alts in an attempt to create some form of reputation.
I remember a time when this forum was full of genuinely funny stories, when people wrote piracy guides for rookie pirates and when people traded punches for real reasons.
I'm glad I decided to distance myself somewhat from this forum, it's done nothing more than turn into the lowsec version of COAD.
Bring back the glory days of piracy with Jexter and Fist, Shamis Orzoz, Drosssk, Fairlane, Zap, TBone, Siddy, Ikvar, Trey Azagthoth Tank and Daakkon along with m0o, The Jokers, Frick and Snigg, to be honest. What's around now isn't a patch on the character those guys had, and the stories they created.

The only people I recognise on these boards is Verone and Kublai.
I think the two of us, along with kublai, kehmor (<3), ikvar since his return and a couple of others are the only ones left from all that time ago. Most have quit, or sold out to large alliances and become sheep with a number branded on their ass.
It's sad to see really. Most pirate corps don't tend to last that long these days, they generally tend to die out after 6-8 months as people find they can't handle being outlaw.
There's a few corps out there who've been surprising resiliant though, mainly due to sheer numbers giving them the staying power.
Lowsec is quite a different place than it was a four years ago, unfortunatley.
