Where are all the pirates? Chime in already. Crime & Punishment is once again turning into a merc haven.
Good sir, the answer to your question is a sad story. I am not sure how long you have been gone, but in my short time in game (total active time about two years) we have seen a Nerf train. Many pirates, including some c&p personalities, have left or become very inactive.
Where are the pirates?
Ask the nerfmongers.

Don't worry, even if they have a mining permit, mining AFK is against our rules, so we'd welcome your actions. You must have mistaken me for someone else. I'm a heroic force for Good in Eve, and have never once engaged in suicide ganking. I do support efforts to make mining an activity that can only be done at keyboard, as all isk making endeavors should be.
Veers, not all pirates are gankers. At the risk of pulling out a soap box for you to hock your wares, I'll chime in.
A pirate is someone who steals, hijacks, ect.
While ganking is definitely a form of piracy, not all gankers are pirates, and certainty not all pirates gank. AWOX, corp theft, and the good old fashioned gatecamp are all ways to make a bit of isk as a pirate. I know you have this notion in your head that all criminals are greifers, but that's very untrue. Its a game that encourages people to utilize whatever means they can to make a profit. Do some do it purely for tears? You bet. They are your griefers, an no, nothing is wrong with that either.
If you really want to do what's "good" for the game, stop trying to undo the cornerstones that have made it successful for over a decade.

It's just getting almost impossibly hard to actually be a pirate anymore.
*gazes longingly at Elite Dangerous*
They have a pirate package , you know......
Oh, and the Beta is officially over. It releases next month. Costs $50 USD.
*starts pricing joysticks*
Hmmm....not really so many substantial nerfs to lowsec piracy. ED looks kinda lame so far...
Its not so much nerfs to piracy as it is buffs to everything else. Pirates prey on shipping and resource gatherers. Sabriz hit the bullseye.

Lol honest pirates.
Its like saying honest politician. Contradiction in terms.
Showtime ( I think ) has a decent pirate TV show on that should sorta show you the ropes. Watch that instead of the veggie tales pirates movie or Neverland pirates that you have apparently garnered your definition of pirates from.
Pirates are bad. They steal your things and sell them. And they don't even share!

You do realize that piracy does not mean PvP right? Pirates aren't roaming around looking for good fights. They steal, gank, awox, and invade mission pockets.
I guess I should expect that you don't know. With you being anslo and all.
