Lilith, Mara was a KEY trade route in the Caldari empire. M0o didn't "stumble" upon it and go "Oooooo, a pretty system to defend!" No, they picked a system that would take an extra hour and a half to get around and started podding anyone who approached the gate.
Charging a fee and destroying those who don't pay, I can dig it. The only mistake you would have made then was being stupid enough to hang around the same gate for 2 weeks. By sticking in one area for a long time, you are just inviting the police to come deal with you.
But podding people because they *might* want to go through "your" gate is not cool.

I think moo got what it deserved. I have had several run in with other player pirate corps and they was quite mannered and well spoken to be around.
Dont whine. Such is life.
Tyrell, i 100% agree with your first post also.

They went easy on you. If I was them, I would have simply banned you from the game, and banned your credit cards...
Maybe CCP will do the right thing next time, and start purging the 1337 wannabe dewdz griefers from the game.

1. Give you a system? Are you special? If you want a system to yourself that you can defend, do what everyone else has to ... earn it.
2. They could have. I've seen the like on Earth when the US went into Kuwait to defend against Iraq (the first time). The US basically warned its citizens abroad to avoid the area.
3. They could have. Its not too bad of an idea really.
4. Again? When was the first time?
5. What? This doesn't make much sense. You (M0o) are not using similarly equipped ships when you attack and pod people are you? Of course you aren't. So why would you expect the Caldari Empire to use similarly equipped ships to deal with you?
6. This one is laughable. You are acting as pirates in Empire controlled space. You should have expected something like this was going to happen.
7. How is this any different that what you're doing to the people of Caldari space? The Caldari responded in kind.
Now that thats done, let me explain my thinking about all this.
1. CCP decided to adjust the spawn rate of the more valuable asteroids. This caused most (all) of the larger corporations to move out of Empire space and into the outlying regions. This may or may not have been intentional on CCP's part
2. Pirate corporations (Like FoA, M0o, and M3G4) took this opportunity to "fill the void" in Empire space that was caused by the mass exodus of the larger corporations.
3. The pirate corporations, upon seeing no resistance, began exercising their corporate power upon the smaller, and newbie, corporations.
4. CCP, acting in the guise of Empire forces, engages the pirate corporations in an attempt to force them either out of Empire space, or to scale back their operations within Empire space.
Maybe, just maybe, this is what CCP intended all along. It provides the gaming community with an event (or events) that includes a portion of the community acting as a major part of the event.

In an ideal world, m0o would have been left to their own devices, and it would have been up to the corps do get organised and do something about it.
I think the real killer issue was podding noobs, which means they might not have renewed their subscriptions...
Basic precautions like sentry guns on jumpgates and nerfing the heatsinks is sensible though. Also it was unreasonable that a 0.4 system was so easily taken over by pirates, and security ought to have been more effective in the first place. Fixing the load-lag after warping for the incoming player wouldn't go amiss either.
While I far from approve of what they were doing, it has to be said they were playing within the rules. In general CCP are taking a very hands-off policy, but I'd imagine the possibility that moo may have been nerfing their income stream had something to do with this decision.
