So in order to be a real pirate you have to be 100% successful at anything you attempt even if you target is on to you?

In order to be a "real" pirate you should use some real tactics in lawless space (or at least fun stuff like suicide ganking haulers in high sec) instead of trying to bait newbs in their ratting ships in high sec by abusing their trust and good naturedness, imo.
I even have more respect for can flippers and ore stealers and that's pretty hard.
PS/DISCLAIMER: I don't have anything against piracy as it is, especially in low sec and 0.0. But what that guy tried and how hard he failed is just pathetic.
So then what is corp theiving classified under?

Yeah, corp mates are allowed to attack each other freely, even if not in a fleet.
Helps with frigate tourneys, tackling practice, etc.
Ah, kk. But I'm pretty sure you still can attack fleet members. I doubt he'd have tried to pull that off if it wasn't the case and he was successful before that, too, as the other wrecks (and another one of his victims salvaging wrecks later) at that site showed.

Dunno. General thieving? Defraud? Con Artist?
I certainly wouldn't call it piracy at all, since it lacks that distinctive pewpew element that's normally associated with that kind of activity.

What I was saying is according to definition 1 what he had done was considered piracy. So he is by no means a wannabe. No one is perfect something can always go wrong
