I know that we are the smallest minority in game, but a little representation would be nice...
I don't really blame pirates for not wanting to run for reasons too obvious, but I am just curious. Looks like this time and last time everyone running is just a caldari carebear with no interest in combat that would probably be playing something like orks and dorks if eve didn't exist.

Heh, yeah.
I think I have seen you in the Veto channel. It just so happens that my pvp character happens to be in said corp.

I'm an ex-pirate, and if you've seen my thread, you'll have seen that I have paid attention to issues facing it.

Which is your main? LaVisa Vista doesn't even appear on any killboard, including veto's.

You seem to mention FW as if its good for piracy. Have you even pirated since FW came out? FW scared away a great number of the profitable targets, and the FW pilots taste horrible and drop junk loot since they are already expecting to lose their ship to a hostile blob.
FW is one of the worst things to ever happen to piracy. Not because they "fight back" as some FW noob might state- and that is not an insult it is a fact- CCP described FW as for noobs wanting to get their feet wet. FW noobs fight back poorly and are unprofitable as targets.

While I'm no pirate myself, I don't run for people playing exactly like I play.
Piracy definately has a place in Eve and should be considered on its own merits, especially when nerfs to griefers affect honest-to-god pirates ;-)

Goons are caldari carebears?
I don't know if any pirates specifically are running, but many of us share the same goals and would like to see more functionality in the systems that pirates use.

LaVista can't even fly a cruiser. Also, seeing as LaVista is my industrial character, going -10 with him wouldn't be all that ideal 
But yeah, this character is my pvp character.

Allow me to clarify:
- I have never made any mention or even implication that FW was good for piracy
- Have I pirated since FW came out? Yes for a few days - but I had such difficulty finding targets that I lost interest
- As for how I have mentioned FW and piracy together - FW is here to stay, and I don't think that finding a solution to improving the outlook for piracy should involve sticking one's head in the sand and ignoring it as a consideration. My opinion is that the best way to deal with the problem is to integrate, rather than develop in complete separation. Simply re-reading these points on piracy and the answers I have given to people who asked questions about it would help clear up this misunderstanding.

I swear I'm a perfectly honest businessman. Yep, nothing to see here, move along.
While not a pirate myself, one of my priorities for my campaign is lowsec and all who live there (and encouraging more people to live there), and I know at least one pirate corp is supporting me in my bid for CSM. So while not a pirate personally, I do hope that I'll do a good job of representing them!
