I agree. Fun. But where is the fun when you get blown up by some lame camping exploiter before your screen loads? What kind of man you have to be to kill someone who can't even see what happened to him? I guess a man having fun with ruining fun for everyone else.

A petulant spoiled child. Seriously, this is clearly a design flaw which the dev's have said they will fix in a number of CSM chats (no linkage, do your own work).
The simple solution proposed is that the player warping/jumping to a place will not appear in any other players client until the warper/jumpers client has loaded the scene.
This should(tm) eliminate the lag exploit, which isn't really an exploit at all but a symptom of a choice with the game design (short loading screens at warp/jump rather than long loading but consistent client states.

- Pirates are good for the ecenomy

You want to know the truth? Real truth?
PIRATES ARE KILLING EVE.
Here is why:
Earning isk in game is everything. You want a ship, laser, implant? You need isk. People are working hard for their new cruiser or bs, some miners 2, some new mods... And pirates just take it away in a second before you even load your screen. Insurance? Does it cover miners 2? How many frustrated players simply left EVE becouse they worked their arse to get something that was destroyed in few seconds by some lame exploiting campers? TOO MANY!!! And then what? Back to few weeks mining in 1.0 so that you can get blown up again by those same people?!? No wonder they are quitting.
Becouse of that lame strategy the best pvp fun you can have is to sit in a frigate and join some pirate-hunting group. If you loose the ship - who cares!!! It's cheap. Bu that makes more expensive ships suck!!! Why buy one when you are not going to fly it?!?
CCP knows that and that is why they are doing all the pirate-unfriendly patches. Guns at all gates, jumps from gate to gate (comming), CONCORD that kicks arse, even GMs checking on expliters on site. Becouse they know that if you guys have it your way people will stop playing EVE and they will loose their jobs.
Compare that to your exploiting, blocking, camping...!!!
Fausto I play a Chaotic good character in EVE.
And as much as I dislike pirates too They are Very good for the game.
Now notice I said Pirates and NOT Exploiters who bend game designs and Rules.
Example a bounty is supposed to be paid when a Real bounty player defeats the pirate and we ALL know this was how the game is supposed to be played But you have Exploiters having their buddies kill them then split the bounty.
Even though they Know thats not how the game is supposed to be played :(
But the Real pirates like merc frigates and most of the recent corps play by the rules and this makes them a REAL Worthwhile opponent :)
Just my 2@

once upon a time pirate corp in particuler m0o had a big powerful punch in this but more recently the power has definatly shifted to regional alliances . This has pushed the majorioty of pirates into an annoyance level rather than serious galatic threat .

There is a problem with saying "Post like the origanal will kill the game" Why? Cause alot of the "carebears" dont come to these forums. Not alot will care to just to see the "Pirate" defending themselves from useing an Exploit.
I did not come to the forums to "CRY" cause Billy Bob got me while my wife was nagging me about her job at Wal-mart.
And Billy Bob did not come to the forum to boast how he killed such a lamearse player.
Kudos to you Billy.
Play the game right. Dont use the Exploits, Dont use the cheats, and CCP will find their 10,000 players they want so bad. People will play more, leave less. And most importantly have more fun.
Free-form Professions, ensure no limetations on professions. Be a trader, fighter, industialist, researcher, hunter,pirate[/i] or mixture of them all.

As EdRush stated, I cincerely doubt that pirate corps present any serious threat, because of number of reasons:
- We don't have resources like regional alliances.
- We generally don't have chances to hunt high-end NPCs (make cash, get cool loot) because of alliances. Exceptions to that are few of us who dodge their military from time to time 
- Most of the people are a lot smarter about dodging blockades and PvP in general, so days of 56 ships destroyed last 24 hours are mostly gone. These days it tops out at 20/30 
- A lot of newer pirate corps have members with cumulated skills around 1-1.5 millions. Compared to the most of the people in Alliances, that's maybe third or a quarter of what they have.
- Security measures in means of CONCORD and sentry guns are higher now, making piracy harder.
- Old-school pirates and their allies are long gone, with the departure of m0o and recently RUS, and with Sinister turning straight, there is not much power left to present a challenge to Alliances.
- Demographically, maybe 98% of Eve subscribers are not pirates, so you have odds against you.
All of the above makes it even more fun.
Cheers.

Let's all have a good cry about pirates.
Aww bless all cos u cant afk jump round eve,cant mine ure megacyte without being bothered or npc chainkill without a pirate comin up and jamming. what a shame.
This game is NOT all about mining,trading,and NPC.
It's all about PVP - Pirates keep the ship eco up or the ships would not sell.
Why do you keep crying on forum about being killed and podded by pirates, Dont like it stay in 0.5 or above thats what it's for...
You got ure lame ass sentrys at gates to 0.1 so stop moaning.
w00t!

- If everyone did this you start crying on forums about how being a "pirate" is so unfair, there is nobody to exploit anymore.. waaah waaah
If people would not use exploits of game mechanics then there would not be all this fuss. I guess thats too much to ask of these "pirates" or whatever you want to call yourselves.

oh man, i was about to write something about how all those whiners made CCP to beef up CONCORD and Sentry Guns and how that following whining (WAAA WAAA He takes all the stuff i jettisoned) introduced secure cargo cans.
But obviously its not worth it.
They will keep on crying till they receive a daily increase of their wallet without risk, without using brain, preferrably without moving.
Oh, btw, can we walk around in stations, and can we have slot machines there ?

Regional alliances are worst than classic blockade pirates like moo. Moo just barricades one gate, one system. Alliances secure whole regions to themselves. In terms of financial power and military might, the regional alliances are much more powerful. It's like comparing Blackbeard the pirate to the Russian Mafia.
But then of course, they're supposed to be adding spice to the game too.

First off, if pirates were taken away...what would be the point in having it multiplayer, what would be the point in doin anything in eve.
Pirates are good for the economy.....

It has been said 100 times before, as a sorry excuse for some to kill people for fun. That excuse is as good as the one that we need a 'healthy' war now and then to kill the waek and boost the economy - used by psychos to jutify their need of destruction.
I don't mind (some) alliances, with them you can trade and make arrangements. But what do I do with trigger-happy-exploiter sitting with all his drones out in hope of catching a shuttle that lagged???

Please oh please go play EnB, I think you would be much happier there. I have been griefed, put in a pod when I was shot at a gate while in a shuttle, and have had a number of other miserable things happen to me, but I still love the game and I still run the gates in my Indy in most all the regions where ever thiers work.
I think CCP is doing the best that they can against those who exploit the game. As far as the griefers, thier day is coming and I hope I am the "Care Bear" that pods them. In the mean time, I will make my runs and write my stories and enjoy the game for what it is. See yawl in game.

Yes pirates are constant worry in Eve but why ban them? I lost my first cruiser to a pirate and yes it F****D me off but It also gave me a goal. I will become good enough to take them out. You play EVE to be whatever character you want to be as long as there's no exploits involved where's the problem??? If there were no pirates in EVE where's the challange gonna come from - There's only so much fun in npc hunting and can get tiring after a while. So if you get distroyed by a pirate stop *****ing about it and Do something about it. Quote:

Pirates kill ppl, not the game.
Most of us don't use exploits, we just adapt.
We mastered to adapt to every changes from all the patches yet.
Now it's your turn to adapt.
First thing would be not to buy anything that you can't afford to lose. Second is to stay out of our systems (map tells you which that are). Third and probably the most interesting point for both sides is join/support an anti-pirate coalition. Secure your trade routes / mining operations / hunting places that way, that's where all the great fun begins.
And don't forget... pirates lose ships, too. Probably we lose even more ships than an usual non pirate player, because we are by far more frequently involved in pvp.
