POBs, Transport buffs, Stupid system layouts, Cruiser piracy, etc. A lot of reasons in fact. They made up a road to the total uselessness of pirate's existence. 4.84-85 were a golden age of pirates with server being full - now it's just a space truck driver arcade with recent cap engagements.
P.S.: Here I want to add that people were making a thread over the thread blaming those totally stupid changes feeling that it'll break their factions and gameplay. But no, devs know for better.
Well, ok.
This short but really good post explains it. Same could be applied many times to "insert faction name here" Factions.
