Actually here we have a lack of players. Community population is declining.
People don't trade as much as they used to, they are rich already, and just hanging out sitting near their planets and watching the space. That's why piracy became more and more inactive.
Many people said here that the Pirates these days are just after shooting and only looking for troubles\battles. Yes that's true and wanna know the reason? Based on the fact that the trading is dead, and only too much lucky pirate might encounter three or four traders during a day, I think the only thing unlawfuls have to look for is shooting.
I have seen your ganksquad in Liberty and have seen that you both, shoot everything and pirate everyone. If you get a trader, then stop shooting others, perhaps? Or if you are bent over to shoot everything, ignore traders then? Because doing both, and posting this crap only makes you look like looking for a weak excuse.
I am flying as LH and I find PLENTY of traders to pirate. PLENTY. Trading is not dead. I hope that PvP pirates would be dead.
Firstly, when the fight is going on I never give up fighting and chase after the trader who appears on scanner.
Secondly, whenever I tried to pirate and block the lanes,not so "PLENTY" traders passed through...Maybe the reason is that traders just get scared when there're some known pirates in the system and try their best to avoid passing through the lanes which are blocked by them,which sadly shouldn't be happening in your case.
Thirdly, I don't know what you call "plenty of traders" because compared to the real numbers of traders who used to trade some times ago,your "plenty of traders" are nothing.
And finally,the only thing I can think about your argument is that you've not experienced the real "PLENTY" traders when it used to be,that's why this activity seems normal for you,who knows.
And what's about our "ganksquad",I try all the best to enjoy from both: RP and Piracy. If you do both correctly they will appear the same. You can have a great RP even with the lawfuls who try to arrest or fire on you. Without RP you won't have PvP,without PvP you won't have as much fun as possible. Both are needed,and from my point, I'm trying to achieve both.
