Edited by: Gnulpie on 27/05/2009 16:02:16 Define 'Top 10' please.
Corp with the most kills? Best k/d ratio? Most isk destroyed? Fewest losses to enemies? Most members? Corp with the highest bounties on their members? etc. |

You know that cant be right garmon. There are 2 triumvirate corps in that list, and last I heard is that they were the worst pvp'ers out there. Insignificant and fight using tactics that only allow them to win, and do not fight toe to toe lined in up in old colonial war fighting style.

Top 10 is ******ed, netherless.
In no order:
Genos, BYDI, United, Black Rabbits, Heretic Army, Elements of PL, The Bastards, Invicta and GIS (they actually a pirate corp or not?)
are all good corps or by extension alliances. There are others but these spring to mind.

It depends who you actually consider pirates. People who hang in low sec gates in large blobs and kill everything that comes though are not pirates.
Good old fashioned solo roamers, ransomers, and small gangs, if in low sec or 0.0, those are the true pirates. --- http://www.scrapheap-challenge.com |

Heh once every few months this topic gets brought up and most of the time its just a way for most Pirate corps to use their alts to boost their own egos. Honestly who cares...There will be arguing over what a true "pirate" is and then people smacking other corps etc.
Many pirate corps are good at what they do. Invicta is good at just being evil The United are good at smartbombing, Sniggwaffe is good at camping the station in Tama and so on....
If you really want to find out if your "pirate" corp is better then another just move into their low sec space and go at it. It's the more fun way to do it These 'Top 10' lists are just an easy troll bait.
With all that being said the best piwate in game that I know has to be Ugluuk...he is scawwwey

The bounty system was always the best way to figure this out, only pirates will have bounties since they are of a neg sec.
Combine all the bounties in one corp, you are on the right path. Combine the total bounties in one corp with their kill/loss ratio and your done.
Now do this for all pirate corps if you really want to know and then post here with your findings.
Good luck with that  ..........................

Ok I personally have nothing against them just thought I would point out the obvious.
Capsule kills - 56,402 - 44240 from the below ships Frigate kills - 14,214 RookieShip kills - 19,208 Shuttle kills - 10,818
That give them roughly 88,480 kills from smartbombing not counting pods from other kills...as i said earlier they are good at smartbombing at the gate But hey that's a form of pirating so who knows...

I would define the best pirate corps as the ones that primarily operate in low-sec. If Battleclinc or eve-kill.net could run some stats on lowsec kills that would give us the best indication.
eg:
Best k/d ratio in low-sec Most isk destroyed in low-sec Total ships destroyed in low-sec
Then you could also do "Worst pirate corp" by showing who has the worst k/d, most isk lost and most isk destroyed in low-sec.

What defines a pirate though, or even a pirate corp?
Sure: Kills, damage done, survivability are key factors. but don't forget general annoyance factor, corps/allaince evicted and the size of those corps. there is so much that defines a good pirate corp that this would be an impossible list.
But if there was Exalted corps would be somewhere out there just because of the large annoyance factor (i.e. smack)

You do realize they've changed tactics some time ago right? Ps. BE raven has been nerfed, nerfed and then when lying bleeding on the floor hit over the head with the nerdbat once more... (I should know I still fly one...)

Well I would not start counting kills. With good force camping gate and griefing noobs you easily get like 100 kills a day, most of them shuttles, frigs, t1 haulers, t1 destroyers, t1 cruisers and t1 battlecruisers.
I think the best way to rank them is the activity, and how long they have been doing their job in lowsec, protecting it from evil carebear farmers 
However, I think the OP is trying to ask where to drop a application 
But of course I say that we are the best!

Club Bear aren't Pirates per se, they are however very good at killing things. Some excellent pilots in there.
I never really see or hear much from Veto these days, dont know what they are up to. 
The United are a pirate corp, i mentioned them earlier. Yes they do pad the KB with smartbombing rather a lot but when they get off the gate they can still Yarr it up; although some would say not nearly as well following the whole issue of leadership and the split with Neos.
Genos are anti-pirate. Apparently
Oh and i see Burn Eden are mentioned. Blackops Hotdrops <3, they should stick close to Dirt Nap.

have to agree, it is only fair to look at kills per member.
BE is small, but has always punched well above it's weight.
A bit like Great Britain tbh. :)

wouldnt say that losing interest in the game = failure.
ur so quick to forget also, that groups like zombie inc et al had a major role in influencing CCP's changes to game mechanics back in the day. and hell, certain members of DNA ended up as CCP devs, u achieved that, Satan?

We have had far more game mechanic adjustments directly related to what we do than any of those other corps put together. And unfortunately yes there are former members of UDIE on the CCP staff, but it has nothing to do with their ability or imagination its just where they wanted to work I guess.
You speak of DNA like they were something more than a bunch of noobs begging to be blue, guess what they were not.

While I've been around and was in Burn Eden these are the nerfs I can almost guarantee was soley attributed to us exploiting the hell out of it to fantastic use!
1) Javelin Torps - Ravens at 249km spewing 1000dps albeit after 20 second flight time 8).
2) Sensor Damps - Ravens spewing torps at 249km and targets lock range being 10km 8). Fight back now! Then in the alliance tourney, Terra Incognita used senosr dampening caracals to make it into the final 4. Before this tourney sd's were unheard of except for on a BE raven, or arazu. The winner of the tourney, being Hun Reloaded adapting our style to theirs by using sd's on sb's.
3) Snake Implants - Okay tbh there were A LOT of reasons why these were nerfed, but it didnt happen until BE patented their Nano CNR's. The day Satan got his implants CCP released their nerf blog! lol 8)
4) Scannig Boost - A long time ago if you were off scan you were safe. We would align to the gate at full speed, when targets jumped in we warped, landing before they loaded. Then the scan boost hit and we were forced to go to cloaks.
5) WCS, enough said lol!
some more I bet, SATAN, and Evil Pookie can probably think of more. This is not an omg we rocked post, just saying that these guys did help change the face of eve. So they do deserve some respect.

Edited by: Ugluuk on 29/05/2009 14:28:52 Always interesting to see these topics after a few pages..
First of all i just wanna say that most corporations mentioned here is either disbanded, completely crap or mentioned by their alts..
What is a pirate?
A pirate roams around in low sec for victims,camp gates now and then, offers ransoms and steal..A real pirate also honor his word when ransoming and doing 1vs1 cause we make money from it..Pirates like to pick on the weaker people but also show power if forced too..
These days everything makes you qualified for the title as pirate..Even the dude behind the desk at McDonalds who s h i t on the burgers gets called a pirate now..
Most of you guys that mention corp`s like The United,Veto and Black Rabbits are the ones eating those s h i t burgers because other people say it`s good..
I saw that Burn Eden was mentioned: I would not call Burn Eden a pirate corp..Most of Eve`s population can instead see them as their overlords.. They are not into the ransoming and low sec roams..They just pick a target that annoys them, move in and show them how fast a gang four times their size can die..
Im my eyes Eve has turned into a ****ty game..There was a time skill points made a difference in this game but now 1 dude with 2 accounts and 10mill sp can kill my Megathron with a Moa and his falcon alt.. This is also the reason we dont have enough corporations to complete a top 10 list..

well befor ur time in BE , I remeber Satan's minions doing the dirty in 2 mwd boming run ravens ^^
I miss the days before cyno chains where bs solo artists to roaming bs gangs where rife in all space, all battles focusing around controlling space rather then posses. These changes (all be it really handy for those in alliance life) did more to kill fun in small scale pvp in o.o the any othere change I have seen in the history of eve. A large number of 0.0 pirate entities died in this period. Pirating and wars have been nerfed almost as much in Empier but it is good to see some new and old faces still around and up coming. BE was very nasty, still is but I would not say they have died or failed for joining a much larger group. U simply cant do things in 0.0 the way we could. Worm holes and a random gang apearing in allaince back yard does not go very far at stopping this problem. Within a few minute that sytem will have cynoed in members who would have had to travel to a station/ formed up and then traveld to the infected system.
as for current pirates , been too long since I was at the helm to judge but I herd some have bearks and eat the fishes apart for one who is a hippy and still eats lentils. U KNOW who U R

m8, we both know that experience - skillpoints. and you would send that moa into oblivion, becasue you know how to counter that falcon, and he is clearly inexperienced and should learn how to pick his targets better. 
by the way even if BE might not be a pirate corp today, they still got their roots as a pirate corp. Old BE whit sol in the lead was definitely 100% pirates, i hunted them many nights down in querious. i dont know what happen but think it was somewhere around when Shin Ra joined, BE started to transform into the monster

had a small brain wave,everyone wants more fun less lagg> if u just make the cyno chain move big losgistic ships and capitols and leave only titians to move bs and bellow + some kind of ttian work be it, one DD on grid per minute or anchering to fire it. or even better removal.... then ud get everything and the titan would be more valuable still, ud need to work hard at moving bs gangs around or building up ur storing points for bs (big advantage for home side still).
it would help make those concentrated blobs that cause whole sytems to freeze as a home side who just lost a bs fleet but still has caps out on the field must then resuply with a titan jump or sudenly bring all the sytems between the formng up point to infected poss useful for both sides.

Udie school might be cool. There's no stopping rookies. Pirates are in every system we jump through, some good an some gone bad. I find great satisfaction when things die from a safe distance and love how death exists. All the pirate smack goes down in Jita or the surrounding systems. Those who face death without remorse nor regret are able to transcend it. "I don't really think that I slept, as much as I forgot being awake" |

I got 5 years and 80mill sp behind me and all the ship classes i fly i have at level 5..
Ofc the game should been designed so that my 700mill ship could take a cruiser and his falcon friend without having to dock,jump or see them warp off cause im permajammed..
Back in the days you took a chance by taking on pirates or enetering low sec..Now people jump in and out to prove we cant take them..fun fun

We don't care about others people opinions of us the only reason I stepped in and said something was because people are measuring a corps success through rose colored aged glasses.
There were many corps that were thought of as really good mOO for example, but the day CCP nerfed mOO's claim to fame they started falling apart and every attempt by the members to keep the name alive died because they could not adapt. So what does that make them besides one hit wonders? A successful corp or alliance is something that stays true to their initial goals and stays together through better or worse.
Back to topic,
A pirate corp is someone that makes a profit from killing/ransoming others. Makes no difference if its low sec or 0.0 and yes there are corps out there that still succeed at doing so, but it is far more difficult to do now since prices have fallen so drastically on items in the last few years.

what exactly was it that got nerfed that m0o relied on so much?
as far as im aware all/vast majority of its leadership had left the game and/or gone elsewhere to other corporations (merger with EVOL), not seeing any point to regenerating the corp. an attempt was made but obviously disbanded a few months down the line (and that can only be considered a failure if its to be measured by m0o's previous success, because it was much smaller in scale - was still a formidable corp.)
Ur mistaking bordeom for weakness.

- Regional gates
- Jump freighters
- Black ops your cloaky hauler for really expensive stuff
- Jump bridges
I could go on, but lowsec piracy isnt what it used to be. Btw weve ransomed a few people.
Confirming that we stop midfight to ransom pods and or ships. We also scare people so much that they eject from their cerbs and warp away crying in local.

You would need to ask someone like Zap or TWD what the final nail in the coffin was, but a big part of it was the original stacking nerf. And remember they didn't just disband right away they were around for a very long time being mediocre at best but lived off their pre nerf notoriety for a long time.
There were something like 3 attempts to re create the legend and every time it was more pathetic than the last. They had members many of them but they didn't know how to evolve without TWD or Zap.
I would love to hear the story from the horses mouth, till then will have to make assumptions on what former members told me and what I saw.

I think the two biggest killers were invention and refined NPC loot
I remember back in c0w and TDG (TunDraGon) we pulled in enough income from killing people to buy a mother ship. But ever since invention the price of mods had dropped so dramatically that its simply not feasible to fund an eve existence off of loot.
NPC refined loot has done nothing to help, its driven the cost of everything down so much that gate camping is again not viable as an income source.
add to that jump freighters, CLOAKING HAULERS (lol wtf where you thinking ccp), Jump Bridges, warp to 0, etc etc.
real pirating is long gone - sad but made that way by ccp. there really isn't a place for them in eve anymore, but i eagerly await the day that ccp makes their existence viable again and i know the other Dragons do as well. ----------------------------------------------

i was pretty close to them (keep your friends close but your enemies closer and that) and m0o sure as hell didnt split up becasue they couldnt adapt to the game, as i understand it m0o splitted becasue the leadership got boored and felt opposed by CCP,
first it was the issue whit Zap's negative wallet account, i helped him out then gave him 500m to get him back on his feets, i liked m0o and they where usefull to me, they teached me how to pvp.
but then there was other little issues, constant changes to game mechanics and nerfs to tactis they developed. they did nothing else but adapting becasue of the constant nerfs CCP where throwing at them. i guess they just got tired of it after awhile, i bet that you have felt tired of it to sometimes right?

Let`s clear the air here....
I was the last CEO of m0o, the decision to close the corp was made my Lord Zap and I during the 3rd coming. There were many small reasons that added up to the decision. One of the main deciding factors would be the leadership. I was the only leader left that was active, and solo running a high profile corp is a lot of work, a lot of work I no longer had time for.
Second biggest reason is our reputation helped our downfall. Everybody knew who we were, and most simply refused to engage us unless they had 2-1 or 3-1 odds. Which worked fine for a while, but the odd`s started climbing higher and higher and just became ridiculous.
So naturally we started getting bored, and finding replacement pilots became pretty difficult. As nobody really trusted m0o. Which is probably because of all the times we simply admited recruits, robbed them killed them then booted them.
Lots of factors came into play but those were some of the major ones. And since somebody will surely ask, no I will never restart the corp ever again, for many many reasons.

Edited by: MAXSuicide on 01/06/2009 20:55:33 so basically, i was right (yee screw u, Satan  ). Cheers for the clearup Odet. Trey told me ur going for Jumpgate, btw?
as for the rep stuff, my advice is to make a new corp every other month and make a new reputation with that each time, its lols constantly posting comeback/reform threads and people who dont know the personal names of pilots dont know who u r till theyre being bent over and painfully exploited.

why not try and get a fun fight out of them by not dropping a bunch of caps on them?
gatecamping pirates usually lack skill; cap drops seem like overkill to me.
