IcedBach Jr Rampage Eternal Ka-Tet	Posted - 2007.03.30 22:28:00 - [1] goddamn, this concept is horrible and demeans EVE completely. everyday is our mail boxes spawned with corps leaving this alliance that is made to take an advantage of game mechanics that are badly setup. We cant hurt em, cause they have nothing. We can kill their gankers but hell, its not like they fight in expensive ships. Plz eliminate them as a concept. Praeludium to success http://www.rampage-eternal.net/sigs/type2/IcedBach%20jr.png Now that's a long one. Though, I'm afraid the limit is indeed 400 pixels wide. -ReverendM

turnschuh Beyond Divinity Inc	Posted - 2007.03.30 22:52:00 - [6] Edited by: turnschuh on 30/03/2007 22:49:15 Originally by: IcedBach Jr they didnt gank anything worthwile /me looks at his killmail wich shows an iteron mk2 with 3-4bil loot (4k datacores) wich had no wcs fitted and didnt rename his ship. I dont feel bad for you at all, but for the poor guy because you didnt teach him how to play eve. Dont blame privateers, blame yourself.
Farrellus Cameron Sturmgrenadier Inc R i s e	Posted - 2007.03.30 22:54:00 - [7] I really do think they should increase the cost of wardecs. The current cost scheme is a joke. I can understand keeping corp-to-corp wardecs at a reasonable price. But alliance-to-alliance wardecs should be much more expensive. The fact that they are able to easily pay for something like 140+ wars every week clearly shows this. ----------------------------------------------------
0o0Preatorian0o0 mUfFiN fAcToRy	Posted - 2007.03.30 22:56:00 - [8] Most of the time I read people smacking about Privateers... Must mean were effective
Major Stormer Caldari Celestial Apocalypse Insurgency	Posted - 2007.03.30 22:57:00 - [9] When we fought them they was pretty easy, just use comman sense like you do in 0.0......but the alliance mail spam is really annoying...
Le Skunk Privateers Privateer Alliance	Posted - 2007.03.30 23:00:00 - [10] OH NOES I HAVE TO DELETE A COUPLE OF EMAILS FROM MY ALLIANCE BOX! THIS TAKES ME ABOUT 20 SECONDS. It took you longer to write your troll post. To the other guy - 140 wars was an extravaganza week. 40-60 is more accurate, SKUNK "its like mining, but the roids drop crap loot and dont whine as much"

0o0Preatorian0o0 mUfFiN fAcToRy	Posted - 2007.03.30 23:00:00 - [11] just like stormg's to cry about isk cost of a war.. You shouldnt be upset, we do what you do, we just do it better and in empire =) More isk here. How many times have you ganked a Navy raven and a nightmare in the same day in .0 ?? http://dl.eve-files.com/media/0702/MuffinFactory.mpg Once you watch thats you see what kinda fun we get in an hour or so of playing =)

hundurinn Caldari Energy. Privateer Alliance	Posted - 2007.03.30 23:21:00 - [14] We never think about the valuable service we are giving. We are giving miners and industrials a reason to live and continue their carebear life. Don't worry ma'am, he's from the Internet

Flinx Evenstar Minmatar Momentum. Dusk and Dawn	Posted - 2007.03.30 23:51:00 - [18] Edited by: Flinx Evenstar on 30/03/2007 23:49:25 Privateers are not big problem to anyone...live with them. Everyone knows where they gank, it just makes empire travel a bit more interesting than afk autopilot. Sorry if you u had to pay attention to your computer while playing EVE. I have no love for them, I have lost 1 BC, and killed many, but to ask them to stop is just stupid. Open your eyes, and engage brain ...you will not die to them again

Im not sure but I think you can read war mails in 0.0 as well tho Im just Trakh so mebbe Im wrong.... Your signature is too large.

Isanoe nothwood Amarr FRENCH NAVY Tau Ceti Federation	Posted - 2007.03.31 07:53:00 - [20] let them do their war, that's give easy target when we have not other target and when I say easy target it's more than that, it's stupid noob who are camping every five gates in empire and pop like fly under my shoes. I Love that :)

Liang Nuren Red 42 CORE.	Posted - 2007.03.31 08:07:00 - [21] TBH: I really like it when the Privs war dec me. It means I can hunt them in high sec! When I head to Empire, I usually make a point to gank a priv or two. Non-kill-mail-posting-bastages. Liang
Gharthak Gallente The 5 Amigo's LLC. NxT LeveL	Posted - 2007.03.31 08:08:00 - [22] Edited by: Gharthak on 31/03/2007 08:05:40 Their killboards are kind of funny and inflated to make them look really good - of the 4 people who's killmails I have in my inbox only 1 actually posted their loss. :) They are kind of fun to fight.. they can be unpredictable and are a fresh change of pace from 0.0 strategy. Oh and a suggestion - Keep your freighters/haulers on alt accounts and drop them out of corp when war dek'd or you'll just loose them. :)
Pehova Mindtriq Celestial Apocalypse Insurgency	Posted - 2007.03.31 08:08:00 - [23] I think there should be a setting for alliance mail so you can decide what mails should be sent to it. That would solve your problem but somehow I think your problem is that privateers are killing you Celes/Toxin vs BOB
Lucci Caldari Yakuza Corp THE R0NIN	Posted - 2007.03.31 08:48:00 - [24] Originally by: IcedBach Jr can I have a whiff, only thing I lost was an empty occator I like to afk in empire true, but the whole Priavateers concept is not right, sry but thats how it is. Declaring every alliance in game to get easy afk ganks in empire... bah, and stfu to Turnshuh No, Turnschuh was actually spot on with his last remark. You do realize that your whine is identical to those that Privateers and everyone in local with them have to witness in local chat every day? If I got a million ISK every time I saw "OMG you **ing lame Privs, all you can do is gank afk'ers - get some balls and go to 0.0!!" or something similar in local when I fly through empire, I'd be a mothership owner. And 99% of the time it was said by a guy who just recently lost something because he was too bloody clueless to prevent it. And for god's sake, people, stop asking them to go to 0.0, that's like asking your freshly married wife to turn *. It's not what the whole concept is about, although there are several corps in Privateers who go to look for action in 0.0 frequently. And don't get me started about the gank whines, it's not like 0.0 is an arena of fair fights, but rather a place where most of the kills are pure ganks done by roaming gangs. Privateers, I love the concept, keep doing your thing. When you can hear so much whining, you know you're helping the game evolve by making the smart people adapt and stupid people leave.

Le Skunk Privateers Privateer Alliance	Posted - 2007.03.31 08:55:00 - [26] Edited by: Le Skunk on 31/03/2007 08:53:57 Edited by: Le Skunk on 31/03/2007 08:52:17 Originally by: Liang Nuren ... Non-kill-mail-posting-bastages. 1) I think that technically we are non loss-mail posting bastages. Thanks for all the reasoned posts from people from all corners. Especialy those posting that my signature 'rocks' :-) SKUNK "im fed up of privateers spamming my emailbox! Ill go spam the forum about it with no sense of irony"
Bienurdau Hywoaf Minmatar Matari Holo News Network	Posted - 2007.03.31 09:22:00 - [27] They need to increase the cost of wars, they are just to cheap. Also need to implement skills that control how many war declarations you can have. It is one respect of the game not controlled by skills and its time to remedy that. Need to make it so that a corp cannot leave an alliance until a week has passed since it joined. A corp should also not be able to join another alliance until after a week has passed since it left its last alliance, even if the same alliance. These steps taken from reading others on these forums and giving it some thought would probably eliminate 80% of the abuse of the war declaration system. Idea: Treaties Idea: Jump Rigs

You rock, don't let these bastards get you down :) i did it all for the wookie How to pwn
MaxSkywalker Macabre Votum	Posted - 2007.03.31 12:03:00 - [29] Everytime you kill a privateer, a star blinks in the EVE universe - *Who is this Bob guy anyway?*
Taikun Brunel Gallente Evolved Gamer	Posted - 2007.03.31 12:03:00 - [30] Edited by: Taikun Brunel on 31/03/2007 12:01:15 CCP loves privateers... Why? Rather simple... they don't bother folks who aren't in a big alliance. The little fish swim by their gank camps without so much as a second glance. The big fish with loads to lose is what they are after... which forces the big fish to... BUY A SECOND or THIRD account to emulate a little fish to hide from privateers. I am not going to cry about players like that "frustrations". Do I like their activities? Not particularly. In fact I see them a a slight improvement over general pirates who gank miners. I do accept they are part of the game and part of the priviledge/cost decision of joining a large alliance to enjoy 0.0 space. I suggest that anyone thinking of joining a alliance take into consideration privateers, and the restrictions you are going to endure in empire as a consequence. Taikun Brunel
