activity in London is dead because when DRA)- was around, we wanted to raid, but the lawfuls never left those damn POBs, so we couldn't have an interaction with them.
POBs in Dublin created the same issue, we wanted to interact with the local traders, but they always immediately docked on POBs and waited for us to log off to come back, therefore, no interaction.
The volume of PoB's in NL increased due to increased defences when attack declarations, and you know that.
I still have my [M] tags and used to pillage the miners a lot, because there was activity generated by those local PoB's... and I am in a low pop time zone! Now? Meh... nothing going on. And if you had the smarts you would pop into the game close to the PoB and scare them to you. Plunder aplenty.
So, no. PoB's in Dublin INCREASED system patronage. This INCREASED pirate opportunities.
I also used to watch them truck the gold ore from the PoB's out and barreled them at the NL JH usually. Easy to track them.
