 This is an Offical PRIVATEER ALLIANCE ANNOUNCMENT
... before I begin let me just put on the Acme Flame Proof Suit....
/me puts on the afforementiond suit
Ok, some rumors have been circualting about a massive War Deccing about to be started by Privateer Alliance.
I would like to say that these rumours are entirely founded. 
We are having a little party and calling it Pew-Pew-Palooza, catchy huh...?
We currently have an estimated 85 Wars, some contracts from individuals, some from allainces against their eneimies, some against loot theives, some against juicy Industrial Targats, some agasint us by Mercs. A target is just that to me tho, just a target...the more the better.
 On Thursday the 15th of March 07 we will be adding another estimated 40+ wars to this total.
This is the bear mimimum number of extra wars which will be started that day.
We (the pew pew loving people of Priavteer Alliance) hope to see that figure be more like 70.
Reason?
Well theres 3 main reasons.
1)I traveled to some back water empire system last week to collect a mod, and on the way there I passed through 2 systems where I had no little Red Stars in local....... TWO! WTF?!!! ok,, one system was totaly deserted, but the other one, well... thats just not good, no red stars in local-- I paniced & strated hyperventalating, I thought I had been booted from PRIVS for a moment!
2)Its just been 1/4 birthday and having a late party, We are going to celerbrate our creation 4 times a year, - again at christmas, easter, any public holidays, birthdays (even of estranged aunts & pet fish), funerals, bhamitsfas...you get the idea....anytime we fancy it realy...
3)WHY?.. well thats the easy one...BECAUSE WE CAN.....
__________________
Heres a few pre-emtif answers.
Hos much does it cost??
It costs us on average 5 Billion a week to run the wars, this week an extra few billion is being spent
Hows it paid for?
Dev backing with ISK spawning FTW...(joking :P )... contracts, member corps, loot etc etc...the extra is donations from members.
U R all are hauler gaking, station huggin, griefing noobs:
Some of us are. I have a better portfolio and also gank mission runners, transports and last night me and my buddies ganked ya sister... you get the point? I dont care what opinion you have of me, or what brush you tar me with. We are a collective group of individual pilots, each person or group will do as they please and I dont give a toss what that is. (As long as its in game mechanics, which bring me nicely onto my next point)
OMG exploiters.( 1)War deccing with retracting for instant 24 hour killing spree, 2)corp joining with war for cheap allaince war. 3)or any other)
As a War Deccing based allaince it would be stupid for us to even try and exploit war deccing. We work within intended game mechanics. We do not exploit unintended game mechanics. 1A). If in doubt/accusing petition, 2A). that doesnt work as a corp cant join with a war active which it started. 3A). See 1A.
OMG Empire is broken:
No its not, you are. Empire is "Safer" than any lowsec/0.0 system and from the dev blogs I've read it wasnt supposed to be a totaly PVP free area or totaly safe for any pilot, YOU joined the that massive player allaince - get them to help you. YOU joined that 7 man industrial corp and one of your new buddies ****ed some1 off -hire mercs, dock, mine someplace else or watch local.
I will try and deal with the flaming, err constructive questions, critisims and spelling errors as they are pointed out.
Privateer Alliance has declared war on The Top 100 Allainces in Eve, a dozen contracted Corporations and few dozen "Random" Corps/Allainces,
After 24 hours fighting can legally occur between those involved.
This should be hitting mail boxes Thursday

I would personally like to thank the Privateers for their dedication to being an excellent isk sink and for providing decent loot to the rest of us at little to no cost to us and at the cost of billions to themselves.
Keep up the good work.

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.

One wonders if this spate of madness you'll be having means that you'll be war deccing Ivy League again. Not that we mind, but I'd like to start preparing the students if we're going to be at war.
For those that don't know, each and every Eve Uni student is corp supplied with shiny new T1 Frigates or Destroyers plus modules to fight with during war time.

I heartily disagree. From a purely roleplaying POV, what Privateers are doing is entirely in the context of the lawless universe that EVE represents. Every system in EVE is part of a frontier, be it Jita or HED- or Oursaleart or 1V-. On a frontier there will always be outlaws, and that is what Privateers represent.
From the "this is a game" POV, your post tastes a little bitter, like you're yearning for the "good old days". Back in the day a war dec was something to be feared, as you say. Well, we're all growed up now, and that's part of why war decs don't mean as much to the two, three and almost four year old players. We've got used to it.
Quote:

Well, that still goes on today, both on a newbie-I-love-Jita way, and in a LV/BoB Vs Goons/RA way. |

Don't worry sorted. When CCP actually get around to actually fixing the cost system for wars, based on the number you have going, things will be corrected. Have fun while you can cause its you, yourselves... abusing the system that will force CCP to change it.
And when it happens, you wont have anyone to blame but yourself. Have fun :)

I dont see anything wrong in what Privateers do, really...
I have been in one of the said war dec, and guess what changed in my eve life? nothing
i didnt lost any single ship, and made some travels in empire just like i do in 0.0...
The only difference was that i changed my overview and got rid of many SWA neutrals, was good to clean out my overview...
i see privateers like a vulture, it feeds from dead animals, and thats a needed role in eve as in the wild, so, good hunt privateers

I haven't camped Jita myself, but I suppose it's about as fun as watching a mining laser all day..
or maybe as fun as sitting at a 0.0 gatecamp all day...
or maybe even as fun as hanging out in a POS for hours waiting for an FC to stop screaming "X up! X UP FOR MANDITORY OP!" in alliance chat..
To each their own I guess. GJ Privateers, looking forward to more targets to shoot at (me)

I had fun with T2 Torps until they were corrected- then I spread my skill training about, I would love to of had fun with the T2 BPO lottery but missed my chance for a fair shot at the ISK, I missed my chance to have fun with easy mission running scanning too.... TBH as I am an 06 player I missed alot of the fun.
If CCP decide that the cost needs upped it wont change the core of what we do, and TBH because of the business model it would only effect the WarTarget total slightly.
People are gonna miss out on this huge War Fest... no doubt, but thats their choice I guess....
Maybe they can get in on the next one, maybe not... who knows, I aint Mystic Meg or a Dev....
Hope you have fun @ the bubble camp, POS, or Veld rock...I wont be thinking about while I look at the Christmas tree of Red Stars in local.....

You seen how hard it is to catch an Nano/Inertia/Stabbed Transport with just 3 in the gang??
Its a damned art form fitting for that while not totaly gimping your combatwombat.
You should come and do a tour, theres a few membercorps which would no doubt, appricate you in their ranks.

Yes them pesky little stab/i-stab hauler's are my bane.
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.
People need to wake up and see Privateers is about fun, I've had a Alt char in Privateer before only for a week at it was so fun seeing targets in every system never knowing what you would jump into next.
Wish i could join but im a hobo and that for good.

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!

Other than that, I can just say, this is going to be fuuuuun!
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.

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.

Way to go Privateers. You do make empire more fun.
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

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!
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.

What a load of Bullcrap, this is funny, the "real men" wrecking havoc in high sec because they can. oooooowweeeee
Biggest legal exploit of high sec I have ever seen, nothing but griefers and wannabe's deccing nooblets so they can say they have targets to shoot at.
I cant wait to bounce off of the 20 cans at the undock points at the stations in Amarr when I go to run a few jumps away to pick up something.
Here is an idea, go to low sec and shoot for free if your the real deal you say you are, if not go ahead and stay in high sec and pick on the miners, haulers and mission runners, really big and honarable of you to pick on the freighters, haulers, and beginers.
But if you cant hang with the Big Boys might as well play on the porch with the kiddies and watch the Big Boys play in the yard, and read about it on the forums.

The main problem with a privateer war is that if we bring a gang of rabid students (they all start frothing at the mouth at war times...it's quite sweet really) then it's actualy quite hard to find a fight.
This isn't to say that Privateers don't fight...they do and we've had a lot of fun in our wars with them. The problem is that virtually everything in local is red to them so even if it looks fairly even to us, it looks like a huge enemy armada to them when you take into account everyone else in the system.
I actually preferred our first war with them when we got some good fights as we were one of three alliances war dec'ed at the time. The later war was dull (as I suspect this war will be). The recent tactic of multiple war dec's might amuse them and having a sea of red no doubt pleases the gankers in their ranks (no, I am not saying they are all gankers. I have a lot of respect for some of their pilots) but at least before, when they had fewer wars, their war targets were having fun too.
Having said that....it's time to organise some live-fire classes again

I personally look at it this way.
Privateers only have x amount of people.
They are coming up on what, around 100 wardecs?
I'm sure for every alliance/corp they wardec they get atleast 50+ war targets in most cases, especially for the alliances. (Wardeccing smaller corps seems like a waste of money in a lot of cases. I know a lot of their stuff is payed for out of other people's pockets.. but still)
It's only a matter of time before they drown themselves in wardecs. There are always that small group of people that get ticked off and go Privateer hunting. So you get several privateers fighting at a station, another guy from another random wardecced group/person jumps in on the action.. I've gotten several Privateers waiting around in Jita.. Pay some guy a few mil to scout a station for you (or alt if you have that luxury) and when the privateer gets in a fight, come on in and share the fun.

I want to contribute to the flaming as well coz oooooweeee privateers are the real stuff.
Check the wardec list dude, do you call MC and others noobs?
About checking the cans in Amarr, please do, lets hope you get stuck in between them so I have a nice and easy kill.
Go to lowsec and shoot for free? Sure we do, check privateers killboard, you'll find quite some .0-killing.
People don't yet get it, being in this alliance is the next best thing that happened in Eve for me in a very long time. I was so sick and tired of politics, 30+ jumps to find targets, blobs, pos's, etc. Sure, you can get blobbed in empire, but, hey, I can just turn around, jump 5 systems and find somebody else to shoot. What else can we ask? Sure, I shoot noobs, wouldn't you if a hauler passes your gate in .0?
At the moment, playing with the kiddies is more fun to use your words, the big boys and their huge egos is just a waste of my time. You do your thing in .0, I'm sure you're a very happy camper. But please mind your own business and let me have my fun. You know where to find us, be prepared to fight or stay the hell out of empire if you're on our wardec list.
A thought, I think CCP should sponsor Privateers, there was the emptiness of .0, if privateers can keep this up for some more months, a lot of corporations might move to .0 space or fight back and experience what Eve is all about.

Its always nice to be noticed, pity we almost never go to empire. Though if you kill enough carebears the congestion may clear up enough for that to change.

this is going to cause the following.
1. players will leave their current corp and return to an NPC corp
2. players will leave hi sec and head into 0.0/low sec
3. players are forced to join an alliance for protection in numbers
4. players will get ****ed off and leave the game as they cannot play it the way they want to
there are probably more out there but its the possibiltys that first came into mind
what this means is
1. nothing changes they just do it from the safety of a corp that cannot be war decced
2. this will solve alot of the hi sec lag
3. the smaller corps will dissapear and cease to exist, b
4. this would solve lag again but with the loss of accounts CCP will be making less money which could potentially hurt EvE in the short/long term
also there is the chance that all these wars will not change anything
so lets sit back and see what happens
*EDIT* just thought what else could happen
they declare so many wars that privateers become severely outnumbered and they are the ones camped in Jita station. lol now that would be funny

Well, never seen the appeal of Empire wars, but each to their own I suppose (though it is very amusing to read the local chatter/see the forum debris afterwards ).
Good luck (and seconded on needing a banner! )

The other side of the coin is these nublets are engaging in cutthroat market pvp, previously with no real threat of reprisal. Power is power, regardless of how it's accumulated, and cutting off financial competition at the knees for a mere 50mil a week is very very good business. If you want to play with the big boys in the market hubs, you're going to have to learn some street smarts.

Biggest legal exploit of high sec I have ever seen, nothing but griefers and wannabe's deccing nooblets so they can say they have targets to shoot at.
I cant wait to bounce off of the 20 cans at the undock points at the stations in Amarr when I go to run a few jumps away to pick up something.
Here is an idea, go to low sec and shoot for free if your the real deal you say you are, if not go ahead and stay in high sec and pick on the miners, haulers and mission runners, really big and honarable of you to pick on the freighters, haulers, and beginers.
But if you cant hang with the Big Boys might as well play on the porch with the kiddies and watch the Big Boys play in the yard, and read about it on the forums.
Privateers = The Great EVE Joke
I want to contribute to the flaming as well coz oooooweeee privateers are the real stuff.
Check the wardec list dude, do you call MC and others noobs?
About checking the cans in Amarr, please do, lets hope you get stuck in between them so I have a nice and easy kill.
Go to lowsec and shoot for free? Sure we do, check privateers killboard, you'll find quite some .0-killing.
People don't yet get it, being in this alliance is the next best thing that happened in Eve for me in a very long time. I was so sick and tired of politics, 30+ jumps to find targets, blobs, pos's, etc. Sure, you can get blobbed in empire, but, hey, I can just turn around, jump 5 systems and find somebody else to shoot. What else can we ask? Sure, I shoot noobs, wouldn't you if a hauler passes your gate in .0?
At the moment, playing with the kiddies is more fun to use your words, the big boys and their huge egos is just a waste of my time. You do your thing in .0, I'm sure you're a very happy camper. But please mind your own business and let me have my fun. You know where to find us, be prepared to fight or stay the hell out of empire if you're on our wardec list.
A thought, I think CCP should sponsor Privateers, there was the emptiness of .0, if privateers can keep this up for some more months, a lot of corporations might move to .0 space or fight back and experience what Eve is all about.
Thank you for admitting you all use the CAN EXPLOIT to get easy kills.
I just PwN3d Privateer Alliance and didnt fire a shot.
I am not war decced by ya's, but if you want to waste 50M deccing me go ahead make my week.
And who the hell are you to dictate who and what I am to experience in EVE ? I pay my 15 bucks a month to play the way I want to play not the way you think I should play.
You guys are pathetic with that lame excuse of we want targets to shoot, be men and tell the truth, you want to grief, rape, and pillage haulers and new players, because you cant hang with the real players in low sec.
You hide in that Alliance where it take 150 million to war dec you, but it only takes 50 million for you all to war dec anyone else, most new to 6 month old corps can raise 150 million let alone supply the ships needed for thier members to fight with, nice job picking on the weak.

You pay 15 bucks a month to play the game that CPP provides and high sec war dec'ng is part of the game. Privateers are playing the game in a legal manner the way it was intended. If you disagree with what they are doing, why not ask for a mutual war with them and go hunt them?

For someone, who fights mostly in 0.0, unwanted random empire wars are just an annoying inconvenience.
I'm happy that we got left out in this round, because we have no intention to fight some random group in empire, but rather focus on our current targets in 0.0.
So they'd just get stupid people as targets from us and force me to be more cautious in empire or use another character to do things. That a bit a hassle of course.
Actually we mostly ignored the last empire war we had. Wasn't privateers. Those guys scored some stupid kills then and got a positive kill/loss ratio. Sh** happens.
What did I want to say ? Maybe only that I have zero interest to fight someone like Privateers or any other wardecc'ing random group in empire and so it would be just an annoying inconvenience for me and mostly a waste of isk for them, because we luckily don't have many nubs, who are stupid enough to get ganked.
Anyway, it's ligit gameplay. I let those do the whining, who suffer.
Fact is, they can't really touch a pure pvp alliance with what they do, that's maybe the reason, why they are not more often hunted by organized gangs/fleets. Most 0.0 pvp'ers are too lazy to go after them.

Are you frustrated Natalia? It has to be, is there something I can do? Maybe you can join our TS server and I can sing a song for you, will that cheer you up? Or maybe you can do what all big boys do, put on some make-up, dress up, go out, wiggle your behind, think naughty and if you're lucky, somebody might take you home.

Natalia, STFU. you whining and frankly its undignified, and it shames the other people who play with you and I certainly feel dirty by association. Frankly, most of us up here in IRON space were pretty excited about this Mass War dec! Loads of us were looking forward to coming to empire and 'bringing it' to the Privateers! We will be there, Battle Badgers and all! lol! thanks privateers for making my EVE experience that much more fun! Just hope there is enough PEW PEW to go arround.... BTW, before we get any more "children in basements" comments, can we all please ask ourselves how many children we've met playing EVE? Another point: does it really matter where a person is sitting playing EVE? Is that really a gauge on an individuals courage, in a virtual world? I think perhaps you need to get out more sweatheart, this is a game and PVP and War dec's come part and parcel, if you don't like it, well why don't you set a long training and logg off for a little while? Let the rest of us have some fun?

The Privateers ride tonight
You better shut your windows tight
They're sharpening their cleavers and their knives
And taking all their whiskey by the pint
'Cause everybody knows
If you don't mind your mother's words
A wicked wind will blow
Your ribbons from your curls
Everybody moan, everybody shake
The Privateers want to catch you awake
They used to be just like me and you
The used to be sweet little boys
But something went horribly askew
Now killing is their only source of joy
'Cause everybody knows
If you don't mind your mother's words
A wicked wind will blow
Your ribbons from your curls
Everybody moan, everybody shake
The Privateers want to catch you awake
The Privateers on the rise
They're waiting 'til the dead of night
They're picking at their fingers with their knives
And wiping off their cleavers on their thighs
'Cause everybody knows
If you don't mind your mother's words
A wicked wind will blow
Your ribbons from your curls
Everybody moan, everybody shake
The Privateers want to catch you
The Privateers want to cut you

the lag was horrible for our second wave, all i did was drop out of warp, paste a cormorant and freeze up, it was (from what ive head from other pilots whi didnt lag out) a good fight.

Natalia, STFU. you whining and frankly its undignified, and it shames the other people who play with you and I certainly feel dirty by association. Frankly, most of us up here in IRON space were pretty excited about this Mass War dec! Loads of us were looking forward to coming to empire and 'bringing it' to the Privateers! We will be there, Battle Badgers and all! lol! thanks privateers for making my EVE experience that much more fun! Just hope there is enough PEW PEW to go arround.... BTW, before we get any more "children in basements" comments, can we all please ask ourselves how many children we've met playing EVE? Another point: does it really matter where a person is sitting playing EVE? Is that really a gauge on an individuals courage, in a virtual world? I think perhaps you need to get out more sweatheart, this is a game and PVP and War dec's come part and parcel, if you don't like it, well why don't you set a long training and logg off for a little while? Let the rest of us have some fun?

TRUE FAITH GROWS FROM THE BARREL OF A GUN!!BRING THE WAR BABY!!
Sorry to see a true servant of the Emperor on the other side of the the battle lines.
Keep your pilots in line commissar
My Pilots discipline is not subject to question! They have been forged in the crucible of battle!
My Boys Look forward to bringing the light of the Emperor of Mankind into the Pit of Darkness that is Jita! We come with Cataclysm and Hybrid, we will be His hammer in the night! Beware you false believers! For we come with no Fear, no Pity, no Remorse!
(and we'd quite like a rather good ruck! lol!)
Seriously, I think this whole thing is getting over blown, Privateer's have a right to declare war on anyone they deem it necessary/worthy of it. Think of it as a "coming of age" ritual for any alliance. If you are big enough for the Privateers to feel you merit a war dec then you must be doing well!
Why not celebrate this oportunity to experience a little PVP? Find out what it is that we're all so worked up about! Go and buy a t1 frig, or cruiser, or even a destroyer(if you reckon you can fit one well enough). If you happen to find yourself at a loss as to how to fit one, might I suggest you also avail yourself of one of the MANY PVP courses out there, for example Agony Unleashed, run a PVP_Basic course most weekends, enrollment is easy and cheap. Then sort out a jump clone(if you haven't run enough missions,there are, again, many people who will grant you access for the right price!)
Once you have girded your loins with knowledge and weaponry,(and a suitable Medical clone!) grab your friends/corp mates/allies, and go out there and bring the fight to them! enjoy it! revel in the tactical challenge of conflict in Empire!
Eventually, Privateers will drop their Dec, they will find someone esle to fight, but whilst it lasts, use those untold millions you've earned as a mission *****/ 'roid poker/manufacturer and buy/build half a dozen frigs and cruisers of your chosen race, and get out there and PEW PEW!
You will probably lose more than you kill, but what the heck! They're just cheep t1-mobiles and you have them insured! YOU never know in the course of all this you might just realise that you ENJOY PVP!? And even if you do prefer to go back to your chosen profession, you can always hold your head up and say that at least you put up a fight!
(insert inflamatory Privateer comment here)
AS for you traitor Eisenhorn, You have been Declared Hereticus extremis and are to be handed over to the Ordo Hereticus if captured! I do not believe I have the patience for that! A summary execution shall be your fate!
NO FEAR NO PITY NO REMORSE!

In all seriousness tho, kudo's for taking on all of Empire EvE. Glad to see the kills rolling in. Great on ya for working the game mechanic's to your advantage. You have aligned yourself with many formidable comrads and opponents alike.
You will probably not see me in space, as I rarely get to empire.. but I'm sure you will find Dark members receptive to the war cause.

I noticed the exact same thing since the Privateers wardec'd Exuro Mortis. Two corps left Privateer Alliance in the first day of this war. I expected a fight in this war and all I see are cowards that run away or dock up just like many of our enemies have done before.
Privateers is good for one thing being that when you log on, there's always something fun to kill. Plus the wars are good for having to do pvp often against even the most hated of enemies. The only downside to that is having to be overwhelmed by many of those targets that have been added to an extent which is a good chance of teaming together against the same people that wardec'd them in the first place.
I admit, it was good fun on the first day but I expect to see more pew pew in the coming week or however long this war is going to keep on.

Yarr - good fight indeed. And all the loot for you :)
Im afraid we didn't get as much loot as we had wished... there where an armada of neutrals scavaging up lots of loot before we had the time, and because of the insane lag we could not do much about it... My computer got frozen in one frame for like 5 min at one time :P
It was an awesome fight though!

I think you just forgot the true nature of a war. All you want to do is ganking other players and thats the essence.
But u sure found nice words to make a big deal out of it.
Sure its just a game i know but you dont have to go to the limit sometimes. Im afraid you consider yourselfe that smart and unbelivabel famous so i guess im wasting my time here.
Im just a nobody who thinks that something is going wrong latley.

I'm just waiting for them to acually post up their losses, but we all know how they fluff their killboard with 90% kills, and only 10% of their losses

Privateer alliance does not order its memebers about. No towel whipping in the showers, no pushing beached whales back into the sea, no enforced beard growing, no mandatory massages for surreptitious.
It also does not force its memebers to post either kills or losses.
Like our wardecs, the killboard is a tool for our members to take advantage of if they wish. It is not around for the benifit of people we have wardeced.
Having said that - the majority of players post theirs kills and losses, and I persoanly blitz through a bunch of killmails every few days. Im relativly accurate.
Thinking about it though, its a bit of an e-peen excercise isnt it

well then, all that I can ask, is please don't be like other alliances' and say, "we are wining the wars, look @ our killboards" or any other crap like that. I have seen it said many times, only to go out, kill a bunch of them, and never see the losses posted. I brought this up, because while fighting a few privs, they were trying to say how good they r by their killboard. I don't mind not posting kills/losses, just don't fly around beating ur cheast saying how good ur killboard kill ratio is please.

I had a hot tip that there were three day old players in ibis's in 0.0 so i swooped in to get them.
Thanks for pointing me in the direction of empire. I was terrified of all the bigger boys i saw and was glad to get back to bullying noobs.

Well as long as you were both in that conflict I guess you know what you are talking about.
Personally I think it is a lot more like some people sitting at keyboards playing a computer game.
