Ok so we have nano-everything whinage,Privateers whinage,boB whinage,um.....what else is popular to whine about these days? I think there was a thread a while ago about zyd prices crashing. But thats not really so popular as nano and Privateers though. Oh i remember NOS whinage. Atleast try to be original and whine about something noone else has already. Like the guy who is whining about Walking in Stations.

Hi Toria,
Your's is a good idea, one of dozens offered in this thread and at least 20 others on the same topic.
Trouble is, it appears that those who are complaining have no desire to play the game (which your idea would require) but would rather be left to themselves to afk mine and haul, rake in the isk and go afk some more.
I am not a privateer, but I fully support their efforts. I hope they will fully support the efforts of those who would try to beat them down!

If I get hunt down, jammed, webbed, and scrammed I will not complain about getting blown up and podded. But they better be quick about it because if I am alone I will not stand still while it happens. Give me an opening I will take off running and I will not stay to take the beating. If you catch me in a gang with my buddies I will stand, fight and die if need be. It's all just funny money anyway.
Yarr and all that . ---------------------- Boom goes the ship! Squish goes the pilot!

I think an important questions to ask, at least for those who are actually wasting their money on privateer services...
With such an outstanding ratio, how can they complete any objective effectively?
That is to say, they are obviously outnumbered with the amount of wars they have and most definitely over exerted.
So how can they guarantee ANYONE paying them that they will effectively disrupt ANYONE corp/alliance operations.
AFAIK and can see they are not too focused on targeting any one alliance or corp or operation, many shooting anyone that enters their sights with little effort put into actually disrupting a PARTICULAR operation.
I mean... they are NO Mercenary Coalition. Who actually use your money to complete an objective.
And the end of the day, the only thing PA can deliver is... "give us your money and we MAY get around to harassing the corp you are interested IF they are in the same system/station we are in."
Maybe the off chance of slight irritation is worth the price, but if they think that.. then better for me. =========================

We re-distribute wealth, manually.
Tis true, just look at all the scavengers that follow us about.

That board is not very accurate, and someone is not reporting thier losses in PA. Thanks for letting us know that. I cant hold that against you though, I dont always report everything either...
Besides that.. I like the rest of your victories... it was ONE crusader, 3 shuttles, 2 cheep empty industrials with T1 gear, and a few free jump clone services that saved me 26 jumps. You missed all the BPOs!
Way to show me off there.... HAHAHAHA.
Ahh... but seriously, like I said in other threads.. the only benefit you guys add to the game is to allow me to jump clone without the time limit... To me its not a PK combat loss, its a cost of transportation. I love it. I'm all behind you guys...
I must have really hit a nerve with that last post for you to single me out like that, I must be of more worth that you posted me to look.
Nice job, but I aint the Minister of Propaganda for nothing. You guys are an emptly sytem that fails to deliver its promise, but I still have much love for you guys as you pilots as a whole are very friendly and cool people and you are a product of what this game is all about.. but its time to go you have outlived your amusement. =========================

You can't realy fight back. They're not a real alliance. If you cause too many losses to one corp they'll just leave and another will take their place. There isn't any way to actualy win or make them stop. They're essentialy invulnerable. I think what CCP should do is make it so no corps can leave or join an alliance during a war.

I've seen freighters run through lowsec and 0.0. I've run an industrial myself through and around camped systems. It's a bit more hassle, and a bit riskier, but it is nowhere near 'out of the question.'
It means you can't "play" AFK, and you may have to get some assistance while doing it. Toria suggests alt scouts; I loathe the idea of using alts, and would rather engage corpmates or hire (trustworthy) mercs, as it seems more in the spirit of the game. Tho admittedly, as a member of the Amarran Empire I could at least claim any alts I use are properly conditioned slaves ;)
The real downside is that it's an added expense, so you'll either have to accept lower profits or figure out how to increase your margin.

Or...
Go back to the noob corp FTW! Unwardecable! U can still leave an alt in charge of the current corp, sitting on the HQ dealing with the BPOs and stuff and making the privateers loose money on a war targets that won't undock.
Seriously, in a game where the developers want to encourage people to leave the noob corps, are the privateers helping? |
