Ever been ganked, robbed, thieved, griefed by privateers? Want some free loot? Time to put those alts to good use, create a new character and move it to a highly populated trade hub frequented by the privateer. Then loot all their kills. That's right boys and girls Economic Warfare. Let's make sure that all of their war efforts come out of pocket from this time on.

Do you honestly think that all privateers camp the main hubs? lol.
Having more than like 5 ppl is pretty pointless outside jita.

Destroyed or stolen makes no difference. As long as it's not in your pocket.
You see most of us don't need the loot from the ganks you perpetrate. We simply want to watch you spends millions of ISK a week and see nothing in return. So enjoy shooting fish in a barrel because at the end of the day, that's all you will have.  |

I'm a lowsec pirate privateers do not concern me.
but if your going to make a living as a theif you may as well get killrights placed on you like when I do when I pop a hauler or a barge all by its lonesome. At least then the original loot owner could have a chance of getting his stuff back. Or I donno maybe you couldn't sell stolen goods in your precious high sec space.
Your trial account abuse has gone on far enough defend your broken mechanic all you want but I will continue to push Dual wreck ownership as the only person that could lose with it being implemented is you and your other leeches. Of course even then all you would have to do is fit some hardeners and warp core stabs.

I seem to recall a lot of folks calling for a cap limit on war declarations. There where a lot more calling for that change.. and it fell on deaf ears. anyhow... good luck in your crusade
I will also add that low sec pirates will rarely, if ever, have a problem with the thief such as myself. |

You seem to think we all need the loot to survive or we only do it for the loot. We joined Privs to kill people, loot is nice but not a have to have thing. However, the risk free loot thieving is broken and duel ownership is the anwser.
Either way, I'll keep killing people, loot or no.

Oh I know you don't "Need" the loot. What the loot does is bring you closer to that cut even mark. We will make sure you don't get any where near that mark. So continue paying your weekly bill and shooting fish in a barrel (skill lol). We will continue collecting the loot. What is that bill now? like a billion ISK a week??? |

interesting I calculated closer to 10mil per person on a break even. albeit that is still pretty easy to make unless you have a bad week but you know let's break it down right here. how many "active" members do you guys have? how many war decs? I'm thinking like 600 members and around 100 alliance war decs. is that close? |

Lol, again, you assume money has anything to do with why we are in Privateers. If you stole every single piece of loot that was rightfully mine for months at a time you would not stop the decs, my PvP, or my corps PvP. There are a myriad of ways to make Isk that do not involve PvP loot, therefore take you and yours out of the picture.

Much as I know the forum regulars hate all the anti-privateers threads. I agree.
Fight cheese with cheese. Lame tactics to counter lame tactics, griefing to counter griefing.
Though I doubt they get much use out of the t1 frigate mods that I use, and could get off of any 0.6 sec belt rat :)

You are making two incorrect assumptions here - There aren't already tons of people doing this (you can lure them into lowsec if you really get sick of it) - We do this for the isk.
We fight because we love to fight. Simple as that. Try it.

Ki,
I like ya bud, but your list is out of date... I think at last count they are up to 130 some odd wars... I think the quote is "1 more week!!!"
and while I have said in the past that while I have no desire to play the Privateers game, that they have every right to, I figure this is just a further example of why the War Dec System is broke and in need of review (The problem is not the Privateers, but the system that allows the action)
