Samirol The Scope	Posted - 2006.12.29 21:48:00 - [2] is this a half hearted flame? Privateers kill in high sec. This is like complaining that a merc corp that is only contracted for high sec logistic disruption isnt attacking your POSes in 0.0 Great being a gallente blasterthron pilot, aint it?

I've seen their killboard, and anybody who is killed by them really REALLY deserves to die. An empire war is NOT the time to be hauling your stuff about. If anybody in my corporation was caught doing this I'd kick them on the spot, it's stupid. Pitty they dont ever fight me (my alt) but choose to run away.

Le Skunk Privateers Privateer Alliance	Posted - 2006.12.29 23:58:00 - [12] Originally by: Shiwan Khan no one cares about privateers tbh... I believe your frieghter pilot we found lumbering around fully laden with a POS , POS fittings, fuel, assorted ships and other items cared very much when our Pilot took his 1.5 billion isk ship apart and podded him. As did the other 4 freighter pilots who we have destroyed and the uncountable masses of haulers we have popped.

If anybody in my corporation was caught doing this I'd kick them on the spot, it's stupid. I can confirm yes we kill haulers and sell their loot for massive isk profit. However this is not just all we are about. The privateers corporation and Privateer Allaince WOULD NEVER KICK OUR CORPIES FOR MAKING A MISTAKE. Where you would happily compound IN YOUR OWN WORD the misery of the people under you command by kicking them out of your corp. A lot of what we are about is freeing pilots from bullterd rules and regs and enforced mining, and fines and demotations/promotions and some sweaty man in his y-Fronts screaming down TeamSpeak at you to STFU!

Crimson Magician Minmatar	Posted - 2006.12.30 00:23:00 - [14] 119 kills on the privs killboard so far , friday 29th, how many from smash?
Omega Man The Geddy Foundation	Posted - 2006.12.30 00:27:00 - [15] when does Privateers get time to do all these things in game. I know the same few stories of freighter kills are recycled endlessly on every thread but still. If half the energy was expended in game by the alliance that you do on this forum you might be more of a force and less of an interesting sideshow. Still it will be interesting to see what Privateers alliance becomes once the trainer wheels come off, coz surely we are not looking at the limit of your imagination right now.

You are free to come and go with no rules excpet dont grief an alliance mate. Flying a T1 hauler around DURING WAR TIME for you guys to kill is a mistake yes, but its a mistake even week-old newbies normally know not to make. I don't like overly imposing rules myself, just the one thing I cannot stand is un-neccisary and avoidable losses. -----
Crozon Crozon Corp	Posted - 2006.12.30 00:41:00 - [17] tbh, I think the Privateer are having fun at what they do. They may not have a high kill/death ratio, but as long as their enjoying themselves that's all that really matters. The interesting thing is, since they target 0.0 alliances they're attacking people who should be out there not in Empire. I can say that ISS as an example now have far fewer hauler losses in Empire ever since Privateers started up; I guess they finally figured out that they're better off using alts for hauling in empire! Keep enjoying the game Privateers!

ScreamingLord Sutch Hand in Mouth	Posted - 2006.12.30 01:03:00 - [19] Yeah, let them enjoy the game the way they want to. I looked at their killboard and theres some decent 1v1 kills there vs combat fitted ships. Let them weed out the freeloaders and the unwary. Each to his own.

Still it will be interesting to see what Privateers alliance becomes once the trainer wheels come off, coz surely we are not looking at the limit of your imagination right now. Interesting comments. The stories of freighter kills are not 'recycled'. In fact this is the first thread our FIFTH FREIGHTER KILL (and one ransom) has been announced. It is new information. If they have been mentioned in the past it is normally because some maliscious alliance propogandist normaly pipes in with "yeah right - i dont believe people fly haulers in war through empire, coz like - theres alts ok" or some other garbage. A lot of people join the privatters to kill haulers and freighters for profit. This is a fact. And i cannot let alliance smears go unanswered. YES PEOPLE REALLY DO FLY FREIGHTERS AND HAULERS AND MINING SHIPS TYHORUGH EMPIRE IN A WAR. Many many of them. An average of 3 freighters a month + uncountable haulers. If i ever repeat this is usually in repsonse to some comment further up the thread. An as for the limits of our imagination. This corp has gone from a spark of an idea , when our UBER rich founder Infinity Ziona started the corp paying for the maximum three wars at the same time as a means to enable all pilots, regardless of age, expertise, or previous work history to enjoy empire pvp. When Infinity had to retire from the game for a while, many foretold the end of our corp. But no - in fact we gained enough money to keep the three wars going. Soon we evolved into an alliance to overcome the maximum war declimit and allow other corps to join us whole and we now have TWENTY SIMULTANIOUS WARS GOING. We have evolved new funding methods and still have no Isk worries. As we grow more pilots will find themselves in our sights. This is for a three month old corp. one month old alliance. Approaching 5000kill mark Its snowballing You aint seen nothing yet Originally by: Crozon tbh, I think the Privateer are having fun at what they do. They may not have a high kill/death ratio, but as long as their enjoying themselves that's all that really matters. The interesting thing is, since they target 0.0 alliances they're attacking people who should be out there not in Empire. Keep enjoying the game Privateers! Intelligence shines through - brightening this thread. I will say that our kill/death ratio is variable. Against d2 alliance (solid pvpers though some of them let the side down by not posting killmails on their own vaunted killboard) we ended up pipping them slighty with 51 % in our favour. Against MWA we are soundly thrashing them 85% in our favour. The ISS navy gave us a good whopping when they finally showed up but many of our pilots had already gourged on loot. I have not located the other alliances killboards to check - im sure some are doing well and soem are not. Its only of a passing concern to our pilots - a nice little stastic to watch. Like you say we are playing for enjoyment - not for some bull**** alliance loyalty - or following commands from the fat man in his y-fronts sweating orders into his microphone. <SIG>

Xenny Lee Minmatar The Splinter Syndicate SMASH Alliance	Posted - 2006.12.30 07:18:00 - [31] Actually, been getting some privateer kills, and I dont think any privateers has any bragging rights on smash atm, other then forcing freighters into npc corp and weeding out stupid people... The concept is fun, its given us an alternative to when were bored in 0.0, just in all honesty trading and hauling in empire is a profession (people make money from doing this) and anyone that gets caught (and wasnt looking for a fight) is plain stupid. So paying millions of isk for the ability to grief alliances into restructuring some aspects of their ops because some guys that stick in empire and hunt / scout with alts. I see war decs as a means of extending wars low sec/0.0 wars... but Meh Ill still have fun.

LOL Basically like horrid little brief style underpants but they have an upside down Y shape on the front - usually in a lurid lumonescent color. As far as i can remember you can lift the top part of the Y up for easy access to your member for quick "tolieting" A real 70's mans chocie if underpant - though according to wikipedia: Quote: "They are a fashion item that is making big comeback as more and more men feel they are more comfortable than boxer shorts and considered by some healthier than tight fitting briefs." Do a google image search for " y front" and you get a nice 70's man with hairy legs wearing a blue pair. /me deletes his browser cache before the wife finds out /me realease he is to sad to have a bird as he plays eve all day For the answers to your underpant questions and more come join the privateers SKUNK

I see war decs as a means of extending wars low sec/0.0 wars... but Meh Ill still have fun. Like my collegue says - we are at war with 28 corps/alliances so many of ou r pilots dont even know we ARE at war with smash - You are just another flashing target to gank / run from. Ive had a quick look and you seem to be doing OK from our killboard. Weve only got 8 of your industirals but some of them had VERY tasty loot in. Thats 8 very happy pilots which is all we care about really. I cant locate your killboard for some reason to see how you are doing. Its the nature of the beast though - we are at war with 28 corps/alliance. Somebody sometime is gogin to get their act toghether and start putting up some solid resistance. But while you are triumphing with you blob in oursulaert against one of our pilots, another is ganking your haulers in amarr. Or killing freighters in hulm. Or popping miner in Jel. Originally by: LUKEC Why no more war with bob? Pay goddamned bill so we can continue to laugh... ... ps. i'm in azn & area but i can smack from there as well. JEEZE YOU GUYS ARE NEVER HAPPY. we got 28 wars on at the moment and like to rotate them every now and then. Sometimes we shop around - or if any of our memebers has a target they like the look of we will dec that. However I would like to point out we take annonomous contracts as well for the cost price of the war dec price. You could Pay us to war dec BOB and we wouldnt tell a soul. SKUNK

Marcathonas The Splinter Syndicate SMASH Alliance	Posted - 2006.12.30 19:28:00 - [43] OMG SOMETHING VAGUELY CONSTRUCTUVE INCOMING! RUN AWAY TROLLS PLZ KEKE Frankly, I like the idea of the Privateers. The idea of you guys pewpewing every alliance in game for the sake of being a pain is amusing, and the fact that you've made enemies join gangs with each other to shoot you is something to smile about imho. But frankly, there are some people who are utterly full of crap. Like that random troll who posted that Privateers are shaking things up and could swing the balance of power. No offence, but that will NEVER happen in highsec. We simply don't care. You kill afk haulers? Good! Teach the buggers not to haul AFK during wartime, and hopefully they wont repeat it again. And if they go "well screw you alliance guys for not psyhcicly predicting where I was and saving me from my own stupidity" then they're not the sort of people most alliances struggle to get. I know personally that a lot of hauler alts have just gone to noob corps or left alliances. Still the alliance in spirit, just minus the wardec. Plus, you made druz use the goddamn vindicator, and you got xenny away from me \o/ (frankly the smell was getting old). It's a happy holiday. And finally, that freighter kill with the 80 crows was just pure gold
Cmdr Sy Appetite 4 Destruction	Posted - 2006.12.30 20:28:00 - [44] How much smack have we had about Privateers now? Despite the fact that it is a mere repeat of where MC got started? You know, the whole "disrupting alliance logistics in Empire is never going to work" bit of bankrupt conventional wisdom? It feels like ASCN, BoB, RA and Goonfleet all over again - so many people have queued up to play down their achievements, you just know the concept will endure. If you can spawn a 12-page smack thread, I reckon you have arrived. The genie is out of the bottle again, and I expect this concept to remain on the scene a year from now.

The formula is rock solid: To have fun, and not follow anyones rules. Screw the other alliances. Ours is more fun Our numbers are growing exponentially, and many joining members are skilled pilots who have been pvping a LONG time. Still others are n00b players looking to maximize their fun while still learning about Eve and pvp. We don't care who you are. We don't give a crap about what corps/alliances you've been in. We are all in Privateers to have the most fun possible in Eve. It's addictive. Like being a pirate? Many a scurvy Privateer engages in piracy, and we pirate whoever we want, we just don't give a crap. We have more war targets then anyone. And I recon more fun then anyone as well. Privateers - "The naturally high method to play Eve."

Gruxella Vale Heavy Industries SMASH Alliance	Posted - 2006.12.31 20:21:00 - [57] Marc, The privateers did indeed pop my hauler. It's a sad story, but it was a good fun fight. The only disappointment being that it was a myrm who did it.. I can tank 5 medium drones, not 5 t2 heavies!!! And Chronus, what do you expect me to do, fly a cruiser for pvp? pfffstttt....
Marcathonas The Splinter Syndicate SMASH Alliance	Posted - 2007.01.01 02:00:00 - [58] YOU KILLED GRUX!?!?! Right, that's it. IMA COME P00N J00. Right after I get my sec status up. See you next christmas then!
Xenny Lee Minmatar The Splinter Syndicate SMASH Alliance	Posted - 2007.01.01 07:43:00 - [59] Well for one... Pick our fights? I believe the proper term is: we only go for the fights we can win thx to the nice network of alts we can have going. (Something that in 0.0.. you could just smack the little blind alt camera, not that 0.0 doesnt have any blobbing problems ) For seconds, 5 kills, sounds about right, 3 man gank squad I had a fight with, domi and frig I got kill mails for, and maybe 2-3 more that I got on the KM... for 2 days in empire and a 2006 char thats not 2 bad eh? Lastly, organized group? I mean geez... thats giving us serious credit hehehe, I mean were just a few fella joining in on the fun! Empire War dec and somebody else is picking up the tab! Well Happy New Year and GF to all those that we saw!
ollobrains Privateers Privateer Alliance	Posted - 2007.01.01 10:56:00 - [60] as u guys in smash can probably figure out we have lots of wars u guys apparetnly are fun to play with but in economic terms there are soooooo many juicy haulers just floating around I personally paid for the war dec on daikoku trade syndicate already losses are at 120m and climbing they drop nice zyd and mega - carebears that make good red flashing kaboom sounds and drop loot. As for PVP had some fun with axe and ASCN that just go pop pop pop bang bang fire fire all the time. Id like the privateer killboard to list the most ISK damage per alliance a bit like battleclinc does. Will wait and see there

Omega Man The Geddy Foundation	Posted - 2007.01.01 19:56:00 - [62] Privateers have shouted pretty loud about how their style of gameplay will alter the face of EVE. Until you work out it has changed and how to counter it, then it has. Now here is the change you need to make. Dont be hauling big fat soft targets in trade hubs when they have war decced you. Fly in convoys if you must fly at all. But better, get someone else to haul your stuff that is not wardecced and if you dont trust anyone then alts are going to have to do the job. Keep those soft targets in the hangers and bring out the gunships, fitted with all that t1 crud they dont want as loot. The economics of Privateers is based on earning money out of soft target drops. If the alliances they have wardecced kept those in the hanger and brought out the t1 fitted ships for war, Privateers will be looking at a very different proposition. They shouted about changing the way Eve will be played but they would not last if what they wished for came true, not in current format anyway.

Underestimating your alliance members desire for soft targets and loot would be an error. I know you like to present Pricvateers as some sort of ground breaking idea so complex people just cannot understand how advanced it is. Truth is the bulk are simple empire gankers cashing in on loot while the looting is good. While one logic might not cover all members, it applies to enough that Privateers would be nothing if the soft targets it preys on disappeared to be replaced by people wanting to shoot back.
Bob Clive Amarr Privateers Privateer Alliance	Posted - 2007.01.01 22:13:00 - [66] Originally by: Omega Man once the ISK supply is removed, Privateers current model does not look so good.

ollobrains Privateers Privateer Alliance	Posted - 2007.01.01 22:18:00 - [67] empire is always full of soft targets might require some research for smaller corps alliances that may be off the radar screen but still they are there
Rayvonuk Privateers	Posted - 2007.01.02 00:00:00 - [68] "pricvateers" What a crap, unfunny term, who are you anyway ? and what did we do do make you cry this much ?
ollobrains Privateers Privateer Alliance	Posted - 2007.01.02 00:25:00 - [69] pricvateers rofl - i think someone lost a ship by being lazy. Currently looking for new war decs to fund myself
Sorted Privateers Privateer Alliance	Posted - 2007.01.02 00:31:00 - [70] The open warfare would continue even if CCP made it impossible to even lock a hauler. I personaly see about 1 hauler for every 6 combat ships. and more loot has been coming from combat fitted ships than from the carebears... As the pilots keep what they loot the model stays sound. the ISK for wars isnt an issue. Aslong as its fun we have a basis for it. People join for fun, for profit, to see what its all about, to dive into PVP to see if their cup of tea. It aint ending anytime soon - infact, its still growing.

ollobrains Privateers Privateer Alliance	Posted - 2007.01.02 00:36:00 - [71] privateers have how many members now about 400 or so. id like to see us once we hit 800 the noise and camps are now rising - fun times ahead

While one logic might not cover all members, it applies to enough that Privateers would be nothing if the soft targets it preys on disappeared to be replaced by people wanting to shoot back. There is an inherent contradiction in your post. If this is not a new idea (and it isn't), then how can the current state of affairs be temporary? The reality is, this sort of thing has been going on for ever, activity simply rises and falls. It may disappear from people's awareness for a time, but it is always there. For example, FOE vs XETIC pitted similar numbers against each other. Economic warfare works. You don't even need to be terribly successful to inconvenience people. During one alliance war I passed an Iteron V being gangwarped up a 0.0 pipe by 4 BS flying escort. All because of 3-4 solo inties that weekend. You see how the resources deployed to adapt to a threat can be greater than the resources behind it. Someone has to take time and effort to adapt. Those who don't, fund the continuation of the problem. And while most alliances so attacked may not find their net activity terminally hindered, it is still one hell of a blast. And on your last point, while you may be proved right, you may also be proved wrong. A tipping point may come where enough alliance drones get fed up of the ever-increasing complexity of 0.0 warfare, POS, ouposts, cynos, that they go back to their roots - a more casual, less scripted style of gaming. No doubt people would mention bandwagons, but what's new? The people wanting to shoot back would find they are encountering equivalent forces.
ollobrains Privateers Privateer Alliance	Posted - 2007.01.02 07:15:00 - [73] we need more haulers to shoot captain they keep being overfarmed. Still the odd combat kill is fun except axe running amoik but intel on their blobs has reduced our losses

Damien Smith Turbulent Privateer Alliance	Posted - 2007.01.02 14:04:00 - [78] It's true. All of Privateers' member corps are nothing but noobs who can't handle low sec space and gank defenceless haulers in Jita... In actual fact to a few of the corps it's a way to get around the stupid 3 max wardecs limit, while having the added bonus of them inheriting every one of every other allied corp's wars. If every corp chooses one corp/alliance to wardec each, (which they do) and at 24 member corps (last I checked) then you're getting 24 wars for the price of one. Not to mention that some corps have multiple wardecs, and any outside party can pay for Privateers to dec whoever they like, for only the cost of the wardec.

Usha Lamia Privateers Privateer Alliance	Posted - 2007.01.02 17:52:00 - [82] Just want to hand out the view of a new char, less than a month old still in my kessie enjoying the game. today ive been involved in the killing of industrial x 2 cruiser x2 frig x1 pod x4 BS x3 BC x1 shuttle x1 Elite frig x1 Now id say thats a fairly good spread of ship types . Im pretty sure the shuttle and one hauler were afking so wtf ,more fool them i can tell you for sure the BSs were not. Could of added an Eos and Myrm to that but the two AXE pilots couldnt decide if they liked the view better in the station or not. Im sure those who say we make no differance are yet to loose a ship. Still , plenty of time Main point of todays lesson is ive had a load of fun

This will be my fourth privateer war (5 if you count a beyond divinity dec before they joined privs.) So have fun and it'll be interesting to see you out there.
