Its good to see that this mmorpg seems to get rid of the younger peeps and get some decent mature older players that will actually enjoy the game :)
P.S. It means u wont see 12 year olds running around in battleships :)

If you aren't in a Pirate Corp and have never PvP'ed then why the hell are you posting on this topic?
The m0o topics are over and done with, their setups got nerfed and the security systems are working like they were supposed to in the beginning. The "whining" about PvP has basically stopped. If you go into a .2 system and find an enemy Cruiser (or now Battleship) sitting at a base, get the hell out of dodge if you can't take them (I've done this myself, no shame in running from a fight you can't win).
I'm really sick of the Whiners griping about whiners griping about whiners and it's a never ending cycle you see...Because now you got me doing the same thing. And I'm GLAD PvP is in game...I'm also glad to see pirating has consequences now. ------------------------------------- Interm-CEO for EVE Marshals http://www.EVEMarshals.com |

Well... he's not talknig only about the forum whiners, he's referring mostly to the ingame ones.
I am in a pirate corp, and even if we are in a 0.0 region, we still keep seeing idiots in level 4 indies that come alone, unescorted to our system, without even checking the map or local channel count for possible threats... and then, ***** at us via ingame email about how we "ruined their game" and that we must all be 15 years old griefers yadda yadda... because they got their precious and only ship blown up and they lost all the 2 Mil worth stack of BP's and other valuables they were carrying.
That's what he means. And I agree with him, deeply.

Ehxo, they have no reason to complain if they are caught in 0.0 Space. That's their fault. If they are whining (make sure that it is true whining and not Roleplaying), turn them in for harrassment.
I enjoy having PC pirates in-game. It adds an element of fear that is essential for EVE not to become just a market/mining sim.
Oh as a sidenote: I'll enjoy blasting you into space dust for wiping out helpless Indy's (unless they were Minmatar, my CEO has taught me to care not for that worthless race of slaves) ;-)

gotta say i agree with that entirely. I have been mining in 0.6 sectors without an escort before and have had to run many times from the enemy (especially when i scavenged some cargo without asking first and nearly got my ship blown to pieces.. :) but i expect this. Anywhere outside 1.0 sec space there is a risk for you and your ship. This is the way it should be. I would not even dream of going through 0.0 sec space without either a bloody big escort of the backing of the people running it. Exploiters are different (ppl exploiting bugs for advantages -but i think CCP have done a good job cutting this down with the patches) but if the means are fair live with it, and dont moan when you die!!!

You explained it much better that time Mongoose :)
I've made my thoughts known on that thread...EVE has PvP, Pirates are free to do as they wish, but expect some consequences for your actions. EVE would be far less....enjoyable without PC pirates to chase.
See you in game Mongoose, though one of us will walk away a clone after the encounter ;-) ------------------------------------- Interm-CEO for EVE Marshals http://www.EVEMarshals.com |

Setec, roflmao. Can't believe NL huffed out, you were being so reasonable too.
ps, noobs, if you're going to put all your eggs in one basket, insure the basket. pps, that bestower is one big slow basket, consider travelling with escorts next time. ppps, i'm not a pirate, or a PK'er, and never likely to be, but they have a part to play, otherwise it's all just a big mining/trading simulator.

Anyway, for as why he doesnt hit cruisers, thats because he is smarter than me :P Sometimes a cruiser will pay up, most of the time they are gona fight you for it. I stop cruisers *shrugs*

Max Power: It was a 0.4 system a couple jumps from the supply on a robotics route.
FlakCannon: Actually, I don't just pick on noobs in haulers. I hold up single cruisers that come along, as well. Moas, mallers, whatever. And I don't exactly have a crappy loadout... this game is paper-rock-scissors enough that every cruiser loadout can be easily beaten by the right countermeasures, but I'm betting that unless you're lucky you don't have what you'd need to beat me. And nobody can kill me "before I got my first sentence typed" unless they're in one heck of a battleship. :) ___________________________________________

@Setec
See a situation like that is frigging great, ALMOST enough to convince me to give Pirating a try.
Well played SETEC, I loved how you truly played the part with that poor SOB hehehe.
I can't blame him for trying to talk you out of it though, I can see you must actually have a heart since you negotiated down to 2K units before he changed his mind, was that still half his hold or less?
LOL funny funny funny :)
I know I'd be ticked if I was him, but your willingness to negotiate would at least mean something heheh I certainly wouldn't quit at least.

And after reading this post I wish I knew why you take sec status hit for destorying and pod killing a pirate.
This needs to be fixed. Bounty Hunters will not be able to counter pirates if they take sec status hits and are chased by empire forces.
In my opinion if you pod kill someone with a negative sec status you should get a boost to your sec status, not a hit.
I'm not whining about pirates. I'm whining about a security rating system that punishes you for killing them |

Fantastic post. I myself have been challenged a few times while scavenging cargo - even got an earful for trailing through peoples trash ;) But, if done in an RPG way, they are great fun, and make Eve the game it is.
If going on a dangerous mission, leave stuff behind so you dont loose everything, get an escort or contact the guys for safe passage.
If people threaten you shout back, stand your ground, or like me, back out and run :)
Thats the fun of Eve - there are no rules when it come to PvP.
Pirates hang out in low sec areas. They do this becaues if they come into high sec they get chased by police.
New people start in high sec ares. They do this because if they go intop low sec areas they get chased by pirates and laughed at :)
Dont take valuable cargo into low sec ares. Dont **** people off or they will come and find you (these are all character names on this board).
And dont whine when you get Pkd. Its the game. It makes it fun.
And those moaning about money and needed to get it - there are always people that wil provide you with an escort for nothing, just for the fun of the game - just ask. I was miming in my 0.6 sec area where my base is. I have only two mining lasers on my bantam - no offensive weapons -so i mine where others are and ask dfor protection - most give it to me -and what makes it better- they are real people, nit soem half arsed AI. You know when you ask them they are considering all the options - do they kill you, do they help you etc. AND THAT IS WHAT MAKES EVE FUN...
sorry about the lack of continuity - i wrote them as i though them :)

Sectec mate, All I have to say to you is this...... GOOD SHOW!!!
THAT is how it should be done PK'ers, please take note. I got blown up and podded by m0o without word of a warning in 2 shots, nearly quit the game myself as u cant be expected to fight against that. And before u say"I coulda run", if my ship had been in one piece when all the stupid crates had loaded, I WOULD HAVE.
The way sectec handled this encounter WAS a little bit more than I expect from most pirates, but a little warning and one chance to comply in a PM is all I ask (some people dont always look at local before trying to run) __________________________________________________

Yea that was hysterical! lol! Was actually on my way to Caldari space to meet up with a friend and figured the n00b ship with nothing in it was not only a target not worth most people's time, but also no great loss if someone did pop it.
It was nice to meet up with something besides NPC pirates for a change!

Setec man, you're way too nice.
Once you're warpjammed, we send you a chat invite. If you refuse it, you take an egg home. If you accept it, we scan you, give you our demands, and you have 15 seconds to comply, or you take an egg home. Yes we do go easier on obvious noobs, or smaller noob corps. Larger corps, people trying to pretend they're a noob, etc. of course we go harder on.
Quick, to the point, and utterly professional.
One thing I grow tired of is the threats of "OMG you will sooo have 100 gazillion Moa's from our battlefleet after you!"

Sectec is a true pirate. Just like the one I aspire to be. Well done, mate. Good show. It's a role-playing game, people, and pirates are part of it. I wouldn't play at all if I thought there was no danger out there.
And to all those complaining about being killed, listen up; YOU CAN PLAY THIS GAME WITHOUT AN OUNCE OF RISK and make lots of money.
I currently spend most of my time with my corp-mates in 0.8 or higher space. We are doing quite well and there is no chance of one of use being taken by a player pirate. We rob NPCs and sell their goods back to them for great money. You can avoid being attacked by players... There really is no room for anyone to complain. I love this game... :)

My pirating style isn't really about role-playing. It's more about making money. Most people have pretty crappy modules on their ships and aren't carrying much valuable cargo, and even if they are it often gets destroyed when the ship explodes. It's in my best interest and my target's to settle the deal with a heavy toll--I gain more, they lose less. I have fun trying to figure out the best way to convince them of that. It's diplomacy at gunpoint.
I don't really like to cause grief for innocent players, but my aversion to it is not strong enough to stand in the way of my profit. Provokation is another story. If someone trash talks me while they're in my sights, or if I perceive them as a threat in some way to me or my interests (even if it's not their fault) then I shoot first, ask questions later.
Thank you to all who complimented my technique. :) I appreciate the publicity because people I rob who know that I make good on my word are more likely to trust me not to kill them when they pay. ___________________________________________

Well - how to win friends and influence people. Didn't forsee myself saying anything like this, but that was a nifty piece of piracy, Setec. Considering this is a role-playing game, it seems a bit of a cheap shot for your mark to try emotional blackmail that you'll force him to leave the game. And if he does plan to stay he won't make a very good trader if he doesn't learn to spot a good offer when it's laid down - only half his cargo to get away with his ship and his life, what was he thinking?
Keep this style of play up and you'll become a regular **** Turpin in Eve :)
From my point of view as a player, I think this type of piracy should suit the game well and I'd be happy to see more of it. It'll keep traders on our toes, and add to creating an interesting gameworld for everyone without unnecessarily pushing people away who haven't had time to figure things out. Nice one :)
Although, from the point of view of my character, of course - you should all be hunted down like the worthless dogs you are!

If I'm approached by you I'll be sure to accept your invite! Of course with three computers you never know how many "friends" I have hanging around. LOL
I'm happy to see you play the role with so much professionalism.

Have you ever managed to lock down a ship and force them to eject?

Axelay, I've never tried ship-jacking. I thought of the idea, too, but I don't think that it would be viable with clones in the game. "Give us your ship and we won't podkill you" is the only threat you could really use, and losing ship & cargo is what people really fear anyway. I think that, especially with clones in the game, people would prefer to have their ship destroyed and take a chance on being podded over turning over their entire ship & cargo unharmed to the pirates.
Although, hmmm... I have a devious, secretive idea. I'll message you in game. :) ___________________________________________

Yeah, "eject or we will podkill you" is the only one I have come up with as well...
Plus there is the problem of logistics concerning the method to handle the ship once the pilot has left it.
It would take a large group indeed. I'm interested in hearing your proposal, but I will not be home for several (8) hours. Perhaps you can mail? _____ m0o

The only way to handle pirates is to not give in. It is better to be destroyed and have your cargo blow up in the process than to hand over stuff.
If you give in it will just encourage more piracy and will give them more assets to stengthen them.
I've had run ins with MEGA, MOO and SETEC. We have never let any of them from hold us up for ransom.

Haven't met a PC Pirate yet, yelling their demands. But depending with what char I play, I'd either pay a few isk's (depending on what I stand to lose) or (try to) outrun them.
If I get blow away, it's a risk I am more than willing to take to see if it can be done.

Nice one Setec. If I am ever again accosted by a PC pirate, I sure do hope it's you. I know a good deal when I see it, and am always happy to meet a "gentleman" :)
On the other hand, Wrangler is also right. There have been way too many occurances of pay and THEN die with m0o involved. I'd rather take my chances, even if I have NO chance than pay m0o an isk.
And interrestingly enough - m0o and Spectral Armada were blockading Passari last evening. I also noticed that they had absolutely NO difficulty with either the coppers or the Sentry Guns. If 2 guys can still pull that off in the face of the sentry guns, then I'm starting to wonder whether they are working......

I only get to see a steady increase in player numbers each day, thats only good. Pirace of course is welcome, and another think we dont get to see yet, anti-pirates, no one wants to join with you in a fight against pirates, I could build ships only to give them to loyal pilots who will escort me to the trouble areas, but there is no option in EVE to be sure you will see that ship back in your hangar at the end of day, EVE needs to implement a feature you could lend a ship to someone without the fear he will vanish as soon as he gets onboard. Then we could built our fleets and go after pirates with no fear, these guys are already getting bored, I mean, they started asking 15k isks for passes, things started going slow in this profession. lol Devs got to do something.

Gaius, Passari doesn't have sentry guns at the gate, but yeah, it's getting a little ludicrous that a chokepoint in heavily-travelled empire space is getting blockaded every other day by pirates with no police response. Luckily, last night a joint action by several corps in the region forced the pirates to run, and one of them was podkilled trying to run off. Hopefully this kind of cooperation will continue and they'll get the idea after a while.

Geyron, no its more like
Player1 "Hmm D2 look intresting, playes for a day and gets to lvl 10"
Group Of LVL 10-12s "Ok lets go take Andy!"
They head off to battle...
PK LVL60 Barb enters game, jumps to Catacombs and proceeds to kill everyone in site... "bahahaha you guys SUCK!"
Player1 "Thats it, I did not get D2 so some lamer can ruin the game"
Quote "Dearth? Last sundays peak was 6009, this sundays was nearly 6100."
Yes thats because CCP had promiced and atarted to reactivate the sec rating. Had the went with what was on the dev server the day before the path even more ppl would have reactivated their accounts and we would have had more new players join.
Have you noticed that the only ones that care about Player pirates are those that are.
Most of the people that bought EVE and are staying did so for all the other things that EVE offers. Do you really think that 5900 ppl bought EVE so that the can be Podded by player pirates? Come on CCP stop using the Barbys,, err Player Pirate in place of real content.
Take a close look and see that Player Pirates and nothing of value to EVE. No, making it so called "exciting" in 1 small area in space is not adding value any more than letting a pack of wolves loose in the middle of a town would add value. It is simply a timesink go give the players something to do. Player pirates are not just simply Timesink because they not only offer nothing to the game but will turn most new players away. (except for the LVL60 PKer they are all ways looking for new ppl to annoy)
End this timesink so we can get some corp wars going. (pirates have/hold nothing of value that is why the larger corps have ignored them)

What the carebears don't seem to realize is that it's the FEAR that makes most people play the game. If there is no chance of failure or risk involved, why on earth would we play?
And what's with the Diablo reference? PKs are part of the game. Why do you think there was a "Hardcore"? Because of the FEAR! Everyone likes scary movies, right?
With Eve, there is only "hardcore" play, and there is much more politics that can be enjoyed surrounding PvP. :) It's Grrrreat! Let the battles continue, and the world of eve will thrive. Evolve, Succeed.
If you're looking for the type of gameplay where you can go anywhere, do anything, and be all powerful, then break out the N64, strap on your game genie, and have at it.
Again, Setec.. Good Show... RP genius.

If there is a "board" ship then there has to be a way to take it while in space. I am surprized that our current pirates are not attempting or trying this. If someone abandons a ship then the pirates can have a member in an egg nearby ready to jump in and take it to a station for warehousing. Then put it on the open market or keep it. As time goes on, clones won't be able to keep up with the skill totals we have. I would rather eject and lose an Osprey than have to re-skill again for all my upper lvl ratings. Could take weeks. Can make moola for a new Osprey in 3 days... Well we shall see how it goes. |

"Have you noticed that the only ones that care about Player pirates are those that are."
I'm no pirate, and i think EVE would lose more than it would gain if the Pirate Corps were taken out.
"What the carebears don't seem to realize is that it's the FEAR that makes most people play the game. If there is no chance of failure or risk involved, why on earth would we play?"
Absolutely, every game I've ever bought has had the risk of being killed. Without that fear, there is no fun. If i don't want to have fun then i'll go and play puzzle games on shockwave. |

Well, think about how hard it would be to talk someone into ejecting from their ship. The main leverage a pirate has in toll negotiations is that the victim doesn't want to lose his ship. You tell him to give you stuff or you'll destroy the ship. If you want him to give you his ship, what can you threaten him with? Podding? Clones aren't expensive enough that anyone would want to just hand their ship over to avoid being podded. That's what makes shipjacking so hard--nobody's got a good incentive to eject.
Nevertheless, I have some ideas. Look for an attempt coming soon to a jumpgate near you. :) ___________________________________________

I would rather be podded and respawned in a perfectly good clone than have another one of those bloody eggs cluttering up my assets.
Also, being a respawned clone will take me straight to a conveniently safe location, rather than having to fly a noob ship back through dodgy locations like Setec's back yard.
I don't see the 'eject or i'll pod you' routine becoming a big money-spinner. ________________________________________________ Captain Bluebear Interstellar Vagrant |

Fgs its not intelligent to sit at a gate with a decent loadout, warp scramble someone, drain their cap, and cripple their ship then ask for money. Its just easy. Clearly too easy at the moment. Surely if we have a police force we should have some system (in game) of reporting crimes. Plus PvP should be in the game yes, but more for corp wars than for pirating. Its only effect is to annoy begginner corps, and solo players.

hmm, funny, our youngest member is but only 19 years old?!!?! Our oldest member is a mere 40. So it seems to me we are not juvinile's as you proclaim we are. It's just easier to blame a kid, because a smarter adult makes you mad. Oh, btw we get these threats daily, some people email us the funniest things.

its not about that. its about motivation, your just bullies and some1 will put u down sooner or later, im not worried about that. and as for the maturity comments, that comes from you podding people/blowing their ships after u've said they can pass/approach or whatever

well, see we let newbies pass, however, if they have expensive stuff in thier cargo, they gonna die. I have yet to see a real newbie with 2000 zydine in thier hold on day one, The character may be new, however the player, is trying to get a slick 2k zyd by some pirates. Some people warp to the gate, ya get them warp scrambled/webified, then they want to pay, too late for them. Pay when you see people in the sector or ask them how much. My guns go faster than my ship does.

at the mo, eve pirate corps are run by muppets and make it very easy to avoid them. 1. a skull in the corp avatar....yes very scary and original. 2. their corp discription actually tells you they are pirates....erm cheers m8. 3. they crave what little recognition you get from online games i.e spamming irc,discussing their activites on forums, thus alerting everyone to their activities....once again, cheers. 4. the bounty list. most want to get on the list but this should be seen as a failure (for the top guys). smart criminals use mugs to do the dirty work.

wow you know what? It just dawned on me that the we Gallente's dont have any pirate problems, all the whiners are coming from the Minimatar...maybe I should do something about that*runs of to buy a kick@ss cruiser*
----------------------------------------------- In space no one can hear you scream...unless you scream on the radio, then everybody on that channel can hear you...but only if your in a ship, because they wouldn't hear you if you were in space and screamed into the radio ----------------------------------------------- |

leave the whining comment alone, people are paying for this they have a right to express their views, if that takes the form of complaining then so be it. Stop trying to be in with the in crowd with the 'stop moaning about mOo' fan boi speak

M00 a pirate corp ? Hah ! True pirates do what they do for profit. We had a member cross your path in nothing but a pod and was killed. Thats not pirating, its murder. The majority of your members may be pirating for profit the rest are just punks looking to grief whoever gets in thier crosshairs.
