spending most of 1.5 years looting and collecting ransoms i had made a nice custommer base who paid me a fee to leave them alone. Some needed to be shown the guns, but in general i have been able to make a living from it, was even known as the nice piwate.
The times have changed, and trust is a closing chapter in eve. My kills are going up (realy would like the isk more than loot) and my "help the noob" fund are closing it doors, since the 25% of the ransoms realy dont give the ammount that makes it worth it. Sorry to the Danish noobs, but no more iskies from me.
I will now embark on the journey of not being nice anymore. To avoid the ransom problem i hereby state that i will not ask for ransoms anymore, simply pop you.
To all clients. It have been fun, and im sorry for this step, but a man have to make a living.
Im going back to contracts on marks, and the low sec killing
This is not a whine, this is a gesture to my clients (and no one of them proberbly will reply) lmao

Yes, the ransom market is ruined mostly due to our less trustworthy competitors who take the ransom and the kill.
Can I blame them? Probably no - I had quite some discussions on this forum about honoring ransoms and came to the conclusion that it is indeed everybody's free choice to honor agreements or not. There are no defined rules in this game (or only very few fundamental ones) which is one of the reasons we all like it so much.
Maybe piracy has become less profitable - but it is still the most fun

From this you could conclude that taking the ransom then killing the ransomee is in fact anti-pirate activity. Hmm.

yeah, and acutally "piwate" would be pronounced
pye-wait
so it doesnt even read as "pirate" or "pye-rit"

well, maybe instead of just letting the 15 year old "pirates" take ransom then pop anyway, why dont you war dec those you konw are frequent "dishonorers" (is that a word? lol) and either keep war deccing them until they go to WoW or head for empire, it would be nice fora change to see OTHER ships go boom on gatecamps other than mine
i actually undocked into a "war" once, i was a noob in my VEXOR, yes a noob in a CRUISER, and i made a jump into a 00 system, and there were like 20 ships all blowing the hell out of each other on the gate, it was my first sight of "fleet" combat in game, it was pretty aweseom, i watched until i knew my cloak was about to wear off, and then warped off and DIDNT even get so much as TARGETTED it was prety cool
anyway, if they are ruining your market, war dec them, then ransom them and then pop them, and then pod them, over and over again

Not worth the effort unfortunately; for one that we could wardec there will be 5 new ones. This result is quite predictable and not worth grinding up our sec status to visit them in carebear land...
