- Pirates are good for the ecenomy - Pirates are only real players since this is PVP game - Pirates help discover exploits (I like that one really) - Pirates this - Pirates that...
You want to know the truth? Real truth?
PIRATES ARE KILLING EVE.
Fausto,
I'm sorry you feel that way but the fact of the matter is that without pc pirates in this game it would be too darn predictable and its lifespan would end in no time.
In fact, it's the thrill of mining in the midst of known SI territory that keeps me logging back in each night. I'm no carebear and i can take care of myself and not because I'm ub33r, (which i am but that's for another post ), but because I've reasoned out just what another player/s would be capable of doing to me and weighed my ability to cope with it. This game is all about self reliance. If you're still wet nursing I suggest you try some mindless FPS, (which i have nothing against mind you), that risks nothing but a little ridicule from your betters. This game however, makes you actually THINK about your actions which could ultimately lead to a major sense of gratification and exhilaration or lead to a very costly disappointment. Either way, this game would be boring as hell if I didn't have to look over my theoreticle shoulder all the time while i was in .4 and below systems. I mean seriously,...if all you had to worry about was a few cruisers in a roid belt as you mine bis, how long would it take you to get everything in the game worth getting? Once that happens,...what's next? I mean..where's the next hurdle to overcome? The next challenge? How can you possibly enjoy knowing that there's nothing left to experience? No spontaneity? No "What If's"?
I'm sorry but I refuse to live my real life like that and I'll be damned if I pay to play a game that doesn't offer that either!!
Fausto, not to flame you bro, but you either need to change the way you think about this game or stop wasting your time with it. 
Now let this thread die please. Nothing more constructive will come from it.
EDIT: Darn quote was messed up...
