You don't need them... piracy isn't about "good fights" or "PvP"... it's about catching a helpless hauler on a lowsec gate and having an iteron on standby to scoop the loots. It's about running when you don't know if you can win. It's no place for heros. One of my fav fits is a drake w/ no tank, 3 disruptors, sensor boosted to hell w/ jamming drones so I can run away if anyone tries to fight back. True. Most pirates are rather embarrassing, bigmouthing cowards. Carebears with negative secstatus. Glad i dont pirate, but sad that people mistake me for being one. Inappropriate signature removed.

There's no details. Apply and we accept. No tax, no rules, no problem. Not many active atm. Have trained many, as soon as they were making billions they robbed the corp and dropped. That's "stressful training" imho. All of them are good pirates and welcome back. You just can't shoot another member... that's the only rule. You can rob or scam them though, that's up to you. You'll build your own rep. We're in Fountain right now and it's a ship blender, but if you can make it there you can make it anywhere in eve. We're in fountain b/c a RL friend of mine decided to finally play eve, and I WAS training him, but he's an insainly dedicated gamer and is already better at PvP than me and is terrorizing fountain. There's lots to hit and lots to learn, but first and foremost it'll be up to you to gleen these skills and start thinking in pirate terms. It's a raw deal but we'll help... so just apply and we'll take you. That's the deal. We can move as much stuff as you need to fountain, but the jump freighter only goes about once a month unless there's a good reason to do more. That's the deal. Apply and you're in. Some people quit right away when they realize there's no hand holding. Up to you. You'll be making over a billion a month with minimal effort in a month though. You'll also make lots and lots of enemies.
kind of nervous but i want do do this long as you teach me and i learn i all up for it |

isnt that a violation of some pirate code or something? i always heard if you r a pirate you honor your ransom price. but then again it seems highly unlikely you mean these kids playing "badasses" know about some legendary pirate codes? They only know 1 pirate - "Jack Sparrow" It's more about the money than the reputation. Killing pods after getting isk for a ransom makes you much less in the long run when people hear about you. and yes word does actually spread in eve... this is strategy level. I suppose most of EVE players can't work with such complex planning. |

Well you have to know who to pay and more importantly who not to pay. VETO. is an example of a corp I would pay ransom rather than having to spend time building a new clone. And there are many like them. |

1 pirate over 100 might actually honor the ransom, that's why you should never ever accept. You did a mistake already for getting caught and that's enough, you don't need to look like an idiot on top of it. Just shoot back whatever the outcome for you ship is. |

Like a sir. 200 Mio is far to much to ask for a young charakter like yours. We would probably ransom you for 50 millions and as everyone knows WE ALWAYS HONOUR ransoms. BUT For someone being as vulgar and rude in a convo like you, there is generally no ransom.
You guys are pretty cool when it comes to ransoms. However in my experience, you pretty much kill whatever jumps through Aunenen.

1: Its EVE its cutthroat by build. People can double cross, lie, steal, scam. No reason they have to honor a ransom 2: Too many people follow the ideal of number 1. So people are already believing that nobody will honor the ransoms. |

So people are already believing that nobody will honor the ransoms. I remember being ransomed once. They had the corporate rule that members *have* to honor ransoms ... and thus they did. I agree at what you say, to some degree, but it's a really slow downward spiral.

Maybe easier it would be to just post who is honouring ransoms, not who will take money and blow ship right after. :P

I'm pretty sure you don't have time to google whether or not a certain pirate will honor the ransom or not.
So its pretty safe to assume he won't honor.
Also, self-descruct to show you mean business. "Entitlement" is a euphemism for "I hate the way you play and it makes me cry like a baby" |
