I saw a thread on why ppl turn into pirates, and i have come to the conclusion it could be part of being famous as well as the risk and the isk.
So name the pirates you love to hate ad lets see who is well known or better still famous.

I think this has been done before - and i think Infamous - maybe a better term :)
Verone imho has been a name whispered with dread with a tinge of jealousy as far back as i can remember , dont believe ive had the pleasure of his customer satisfaction mail mind you but Verone + Piracy + Ur death seems to go hand in hand :)
There are of course many other names too many for me to list of almost equal stature but my vote go's to verone main reason he must be the most well known feared and respected pilot i know.

i dont think many pirates do it for that, probably none tbh
pirating, just like any pvp is for the fun of it
for the stalk before hand, the warping in, killing your prey and getting out alive. gets the heart pumping 
although these days pirating is very hard with so many stabs and ecm.

PLEAAASE - MAKE ME FAMOUS...
Seriously, the only way to get "famous", is either by being a forum-biatch, or by being a part of something crazy.
By killing a lot of people succesfully, doesn't make you notorious, famous, feared or anything - it's all about the ePeen

No need to fear Verone, i have him on a lead atm, he isn't going anyway till i get above him on the killboard and more ransoms.

The fame comes more from forum whoring than from the piracy itself.
The piracy simply creates the basis for the fame: being an honorable pirate with class doesn't do you anything if the only ones who know you are your victims.

Doesn't really work. In a fleet fight, a geddon with 5x 1600mm tungsten, 2x EAN2, and a damage control will last 5-10 seconds at most under concentrated fleet fire.

too true, most "famous" people in Eve, are people that have sucesfully generated an aurora of fame about them on the forums. Once the ground work is done, it self perpetuates itself, as people become hyped up and cross referenced, only increasing their fame.
A couple of friends, some choice alts, and a couple of months dedication, could make anyone famous.

That depends on the scale of the fleet fight.
And yeah the forums hos are the famous ones

Verone definately, and Skywalker keeps sitting in that dread outside stations in amamake, I think he's pretty infamous for it.

I'll have to vote for Verone as well. Only tangled with him once, and after sending us running had a nice discussion with him in local regarding various ship setups, etc.
I won't go into details of the battle though, lets just say I don't think we gave him much of a fight.

I have been in game maybe 2months have met NONE of the pirates and people of which I would consider famous, I have met some very skilled and well mannered people like Deja and some more from CONIN, I consider a few people like Verone and Skywalker forum famous from what I have read but they are not famous in my heart until I either die or have been defeated by there hands. I hope as my skills progress and I venture into more space I will meat some of these famed people and be able to judge myself against all I have heard. Till then I see none as famous but all as worthy rivals.

"fame" and familiarity are easy to mix up. See a name a lot on a forum and you become familiar like me. Do something massive in game and become famous for a while, like Foyle or SirMolle.

My vote : Letum, I've been pod killed by many a pirate and many a gank squad of gate camping bad-asses. But I honestly don't know of any pilot I would rather not face one on one than Letum. Just my opinion. FLame on..
We hate Mirph, its the kind of personal, deep down loathing that makes you pet your favorite gun and smile. Yes we hate Mirph, the kind of hate that keeps our lasers warm, and our railguns low on ammo |

SPVD(I think that was Spaced Invaders ticker) back in the day earned a reputation that their clients fostered as much as anyone. Not saying they didn't participate in the forums, especially Viceroy and Lianhaun, but back in this forum their clients spread the word for them and made them famous.
