1. Stop paying ransoms.
The pirate exists partly by getting players to give them money to they aren't pk'ed. So, eliminate that form of money and pirates suffer.
well then the Pirate gets his isk from your loot - oh and you lose that shiny implants..

2. Stop paying for protection.
Players who pay bullies for protections will never achieve their full worth unless they stand up to pirates. I'm not talking about hiring players, but about players who intimidate to get money.
Your seeing that the wrong way - if you pay the local pirate corp for protection, then you can mine/missionrun/do whatever you like the whole day, and you can be almost sure that the pirates will keep other problems away from you.

3. Fight all pirates everywhere to take back the space you have live in. It's your home, don't let someone run you out.
cant argue with that, but we all know a good pirat loves a good fight!

4. United front.
If all non pirates allied together to hunt pirates down and destroy them than less pirates would be around because they would fear us. Group together and help each other out.
Could work, as long as your able to see the diffrence between a pirate and an anti-pirate - how exactly you do that?

Yes, piracy adds an element needed for this game, but this game seems controlled by the pirates. Let's take it back. Use local to warn others of pirates, get together and go to the gatecampers, ore thieves, etc. and show them who rules who. But some might say that the pirates are powerful. Yes they are. But who makes the most money? We do. Why do they pirate us? So they can make money. Stop making it easy for the pirates. Stop rolling over. Stand up and fight. Keep your hard earned money for yourself. But divided we fall, united we stand. Some of us make a stand, but until all do, we will always fight a pitched battle. Let's stand up for ourselves and do what is needed.
Yeah! sounds like Fun Fun and more Fun! Do it! :)

Maybe, just maybe I have attacked pirates with high sec ratings and lowered mine. Obviously some people don't understand that. But hey, we are all noobs to some degree.

I was wondering when the sheep would talk. For all you noobs, being a pirate doesn't make you a better pvper. Being a pirate only means you take what isn't yours and you try to steal from others. And pirates gang up anf gank people. So, who really are the best pvpes? Not most pirates. Unless in a group. lol. Even questionable there.
usually pirates are used to work alone or in small groups (2 - 4 people) just for the simple reason that larger groups make it unprofitable.
The Reason why Pirates usually are better PVP'ers is simply that they got a lot experience - your not often hitting a newb pirate cause those usually dont have much success, so most pirates are people with pvp experience that decided that they need another source of isk then doing boring things like mining, ratting, plexing or whatever you carebears do :p

That is a very good question" What is the difference of pirate and antipirates?" So this is my def:
Pirate: One who takes what isn't his/hers and makes a living off of it.
Anti-pirate: One who doesn't. However, hitting pirates and thieves is okay because it's justice.
So.. lets say there is a low sec system.
Lets say in this system is the home of a minin/industrial corp - which are living the "hard" low-sec life. Now lets say there are some Miners/Ratters who live in high-sec systems. They come in mine the resources that the local corp needs for survival, they farm the belts empty of rats. Now lets say there is another Local Corp, this corp helps the mining corp to protect there assets - by shooting hostile pilots, if those are highsec-carebears which are coming cause they overfarmed their own systems - or if those are pvp players which come to gank the local miners.
Now is this a Pirate Corp, or is it an Anti-Pirate Corp, fighting PvP or Mine-Pirates?

Excellent point. But, did the local corp make an effort to claim the system?
a) you cant claim empire systems.
b) local corp a) is an industrial not an fighting corp

I really don't want to know what you do when you are alone, underwear and all. Pirates have their place. Just not everywhere you go.
Everywhere i go is place for pirates - how else could i go there? :p
i sometimes even go high-sec

Notice how only the prats are recommending paying of ransoms. Victim after victim pipes up with stories of paying and still being ganked. Heck, even some prats admit it's a coin toss, based on how they feel that day re: honoring a ransom.
Thats not true.
i never killed someone who paid his ransom in time,
neither has any of my Pirate friends. We all know that People just pay as long as they can trust in us letting 'em go if they do so, and thats why we let them go if they pay. That we dont do that are lies, often told by (newb)anti-pirates to make people not pay us (and die).
Why should we cut off our own best way of making isk?

Being a pirate doesn't mean you are a good pvper. It only means you most likey aren't very skilled solo or in an equal fight. Some are, most aren't compared to non pirates fighting all the pirates outmatched usually.
Thats funny - i had much more solo fights (and kills) since i became pirate..

Well, I see what you are saying, and you are right. But piracy is about profit. Kill the profit, kill the pirates. The it will be pvp with no piracy.(please remember this is a game and I am a pirate killer who wants to help other players with what I have learned).
Damn, and im doing it for the fun.. i knew i was doing something wrong. from now on i promise to not have fun but make profit instead...

you will never stop piracy, and i hope it never stops.
Imagine EVE without dirty rotten scoundrels like peter powers who get owned by drakes in there abbaddon.
Pirates are great....I love to kill them 
Sorry, must have missed thatone? my Abaddon still looks pretty fine. De-Aggressing 120 seconds before DT and getting away from the gate protects your ship from getting killed by gateguns after DT. Your allways welcome to come back and give it another try - you know where im living :)
