Originally by: Amith Silvermoon I still enjoy how you guys make some people so bitter about what you do and the way you go about things. Maybe they still see you as a bunch of griefing T1 frigates. I remeber killing your scorp near jita which had some Heavy missile luanchers and 2 stabs and a plate on it sorted. That was back when you guy first started out.
lol you bring up the one time I fitted stabs, and I knew I was engaging a NOS domi and Curse wingman ..so .. and heavy launchers? sounds more like a guy a flew with at the time...I'm sure I would of fitted cruise.... but if its posted someplace it will be right...
but yeah.. the haterd is stunning isnt it....
P.s I was a t1 Cruiser ***** hehehe.. Carac with ECM was sweet...

Not that its a big question, just that I'm curious  --------

Well, have fun!
As for the exploit thing with the "unintended" practices of you privateers, I don't know...
I can't believe when the war dec mechanic was conceived it was "intended" that an alliance would exist in empire to perpetually wardec multiple entities for no actual reason other than to have CounterStrike style pick up 'n' play eve time!!
However, it's not so much what was "intended" as how they (CCP) view what is happening, now that it IS happening and how it affects their business - if something is important enough, CCP WILL play ball.
For example - it was never "intended" when the bookmarking feature was implemented that the player base would invent the "insta" - yet it happened, and due to the servers groaning under the strain and the inevitable player backlash if the insta was removed, warp to 0 was implemented. This is player invention in action.
My point is that just because an entity like the privateers wasn't "intended" doesn't automatically mean it is unacceptable now that it exists.
I've lost ships to these guys, but I've ganked a load as well - I'm in an alliance that will inevitably be amongst those decced on Thursday, of course I'd rather be able to set a hauler on autpilot and go have a cup of tea than actually fly my ship, but does any of this mean they don't have the right to exist and play the game how they want?
I think the only time Privateers' shenanigans may have a stop put to them is if it starts making people cancel subs en-masse, and hit CCP in the wallet. For my view, they are a pain in the arse when you don't want them around, but when I feel like some pew-pew they have it on tap - I won't be cancelling my sub anytime soon!
Ready with the Waaaaambulance!

Killboards mean nothing. Every single killboard I have EVER seen is heavily skewed in favor of the people who maintain it, simply because it requires player honesty and interaction to function. There is no such thing as accurate kill "statistics" in Eve, no matter how much people claim. In order for this to occur CCP themselves would have to run their own kill statistics and make it publically available.
As for the Privateer alliance... imo nothing more than a bunch of pvp enthusiasts backed by rich isk-buyers/industrialists who have successfully found a way around Concord.

Originally by: Solid Wilko A salute to your fun and the concept which I loathe, yet cant really fault.
The Lamentation: ( a cry of sorrow and grief; "their pitiful laments could be heard throughout the ward")
Allthough I cant fault Privateers in what seems to be a successful use of game mechanics, I most certainly think this should not be allowed. A declaration of war at least from a concept view to fuel Eve Online seems to me like it should be more a bridge to sanction Empire war between two or more entities to cut off supplies ect the works. It should not be as it is the case with Privateers, a function to grief anything that moves, simply because its "within game mechanics" or original statements such as "because we can" and even if so well then CCP should consider the impact this aptitude for abuse has when were talking cluster-style agendas like this that affects more or less everything in Empire.
Sure there are ways around it, we can all live in 0.0 where Privateers for now isnt seen much or we can remove ourselves from the game functions of alliances and corps and go into "corporate recession" to avoid the Privateer Gank squad. But that would just be to forward the inherrent problem instead of the root cause of the issue.
Then classics like "adapt or become a victim of evolution" and all the train long smack will fall from the skies.
Seleene once posted about the seriousness of creating an alliance and what a big moment it was and how it is theese days, well the same could be said about war declaration. It went from something that was not taken lightly to "what?!? were not at war today?!?, must be a server error!!"
In times before Privateers a war dec meant buisness. Some people had enough/wanted to kill you because of some slight or political problems. Today Wardeccing is an "inconvenient" mechanic to bypass to be allowed to lay waste to as much as possible. "War has been declared" doesnt mean squat today. Chances are youre allready decced by Privateers or soon will be and since 0.0 war dec doesnt mean anything well nothing changes for the average pilot where as in older days war dec meant interruption of normal logistics ect.
It has simply taken the menace out of the whole function.
Maybe it still means something between big alliances vs each other, but thats about the extent of it.
I must admit I hope CCP scales cost drastically above a certain amount of war decs pr entity.
That said since it IS within game mechanics and Privateers seem to thrive on the said lamentations, here is a salute to you and looking forward to thursday, and may you all suffer a horrible end. 
Have fun o/
Solid.

A metropolis is typically more relevant then some backwater Truck stop.

For all of those who say that the Privateers are using the wardec as it was unintended please show me where a dev has said this. If a dev hasn't said this then you are giving your opinion.
As far as all of you 0.0 pilots that think you are cats meow why don't you come down to empire and show the privateers your uber skills. If you aren't willing to do this then I guess you can't really call privateer kills cheap kills

Yay, a razor person who makes a very good point and doesn't flame like hell! :D From now on you are my favorite RAZOR alliance member (no pun intended). <3
And I am quite happy that people are starting to understand the way privateer alliance works, and why individual members of it should be treated as individuals rather than to referring to them as "the alliance".
About the killboard statistics. I do keep a very very accurate track on my corp's killboard data. If you can provide me with a lossmail that is still not posted there from my corp 3 days after the loss is suffered, I will personally give you 50m isk.

And of course, my reply all the time would be "You can pry it from my cold dead fingers" And being the nice helpful people you are you will surely extract my fingers from everything that I struggled so hard to earn. After all its the cost of being less than a fully fledged combat orientated pilot, willing to kill nameless (and often less skilled)people on sight.

I could show you a few wallet transaction from your alliance that would say otherwise.
