Station and Gate weapons - again

[Karst]

Please admins and developers, don't do what is mentioned in the above quote ! - This is another way to destroy the game so please do not listen to this idea
In-fact the defenses are good for the traders, civilians and other lawful pilots who get pirated and sometimes go closer to nearest defenses for shelter
It's the pirate/unlawful problem to pick the right place for camping and waiting victims, but it's not the gate fault !!!!
Please consider increasing the firepower of gates and base defenses, as it should be this way.

I have a question for you.
How often do you fly unlawful / pirate characters?

Edit:

As for the pulses, I'm not sure having pirate cruisers blocking gates at leisure is a desired alternative.

They do not prevent that. It'll just sit inside the gate. They're worst for snubs, since snubs are actually at risk and will bleed precious bots when deshielded, which instantly happens whenever they use a gate.
If anything they encourage cruiser piracy.
