Nah I'm serious, I really don't know what there is for pirating on an alliance level in eve and was hoping the good people of C&P would shine some light on the topic.

Edited by: Ferocious FeAr on 31/10/2009 09:35:11 Pirates have lost their aggressive edge. I remember when people just engaged to instill fear in people that fly around in their area. Now its, 5 billion scouts, numbers game with ECM/logistic support.
I remember when pirates had balls. Been a while, RIP old days. __________________ Built like a Rokh |

People have been complaining about how much better things were in the old days since beta, when devs would sit around going "things aren't like they were in the alpha, people just haven't got any balls anymore". Signature needs to be more EVE related. Zymurgist |

This, basically. I started in 2006 and I've heard on a weekly basis since I started that "things arent what they used to be". ALEKSEYEV KARRDE FOR CSM |

Perhaps you would like to enlighten us to your alternative view of existing organized pirate alliances?

I think a lot of pirate corps like smaller scale pvp, and their outfits tend to be sized to accomodate that. Too many friends also means less people to shoot at, since 99% of high-sec dwellers fear to tread in lowsec (giant FW blobs not withstanding)

S****pretty much broke up about a month ago, mostly because they were very poorly organized. Some of their members joined our alliance, and they are amazed at the difference between the two. I am just saying that I wouldn't fret much when you come accross a S****gang. If you are at all organized, you will probably do pretty well. Go to some of the regions where they used to live, and you will find much stronger, more organized pirate alliances. Mine has around 600 members, and does around 15B in damage a week (on average), yet we are a relatively small alliance compared to others.
Just like in gang warfare, most of the large pirate alliances spend most of their time attacking each other. This is just because it is much more fun to attack a large fleet of combat ships, than to gank helpless carebears/missioners. We generally look for people who will fight back, since that is where the fun part of PvP is.

Dead terrorists have been in hagilur a lot lately, for the first time in a very long time I'm actually hesitant to fly a ship through a unscouted gate, particularly in that area. I wouldn't even go there scouting in a shuttle as they really are serious about their gate camping.
If someone do attack them they seem to be able to field huge well setup gangs to deal with threats.
So yeah pirate alliances could probably lock down entire systems, and if with as good numbers and ships as dead terrorists they can retaliate to anything that wants to bust their camps. Got Cooch?, solo PvP movie

This.
Pirate corps rarely get more than 50 members before they find that there isn't enough action to support a bigger group of pilots, and it all becomes a little dull.
Also, pirate corps tend not to make up big alliances but would rather keep a few close informal friends to help in times of need (or when a cap ship is pointed). There are even times when they will gang up with their enemies for the common good.

and this as well.
even going by own experience, pirates aren't really designed to be in big alliances, as everyone, even if they have the same interests, just don't function well enough together,

This is spot on I think. It's nice to have a small number of mates in case something big goes down, and we all like the occasional epic fight in which case it does no harm to be open to the occasional temporary nap.

Well, the united sit in rancer smartbombing. you get the odd capfight maybee once or twice a year between them and i dunno bydi or som1 thats about it. no its not worth it over 0.0 especially with all the cool stuff in dominion Signature graphics that may only contain your character name, corporation logo, corporation or personal slogan or other text that is directly related to your in-game persona, or content directly related to Eve Online.

Keeping a pirate alliance together is like herding cats.
Perhaps looking into the mindset of your typical cat would shed some light on why pirate alliances are hard to come by.
