ARE PIRATES DEPLETING?!

[Kambei]

GMG could care less about pirates in Sig 13. GMG and Rheinland are not exactly friends ... they were at war with each other ... remember. The whole debris field in Sig 13 is the remains of that war. Since the diamond/niobium run brings diamonds from Rheinland ... GMG could really care less if that trader moving the diamonds gets nabbed or not. So ... don't see much "role play" in GMG coming to the aide of traders supporting their non-friends.

isnt fully armed bomber with most destructive weapon in sirius real threat for GMG mining facilities?

The reason you see so many fewer pirates is cuz

1. Piratz have less caps

2. Piratz have no BC

:P

Bombers are effective when there are 2 or more. And believe it or not ... a single gunboat has more of a fighting chance against 2 bombers than he does against a single BC.

And for those of you that brag about taking down BC's blindfolded ... congrats ... but I'm not one of those looking to get into PVP combat with them. Not everyone is PVP savvy. There are a few of us that would rather role play with a bounty hunter before the guns start blazing. Unfortunately THESE bounty hunters in their BC's never role play with you. They just watch you exit Yanagi and open the guns.

I see a lot pirates, usually after 10:30 PM EST USA (3:30GMT) in Liberty.

I have actually sought out decent pirates to get pirated by *Cough*Orin*Cough*. Dang it, if I am going to get pirated, I want it to be done by a professional!:D

I spend most of my time these days flying my other characters. I've only got one pirate now ... total of 10 characters ... but only one pirate. When people get a bit more rational when they encounter a pirate ... I might be willing to give you some good piracy role play. As for now ... my Black.Pearl will just fly around to be seen ... and that's about it.

[tansytansey]

I haven't been pirating in ages either, my laggy internet won't let me. So I dunno what the situation is like around Liberty, but I haven't seen any familiar faces for a while. Seems most of the pirates I used to fly with have moved on.

I dunno, for me what turns me off is the pseudo-RP of lawfuls who take out their innate prick/control freak nature out in NY or something.

To this GMG stuff, we only attack neutral-hostile pirates if they come within 5k of the Naha, and ignore warnings to leave.

And Black.Pearl has an agreement with GMG to avoid pirating on the trade lanes and near Naha within Sig 13. In return the GMG gives me full run between the NB and Chugoku jumpholes.

That is ... when I'm active. When 4.85 gets here ... we'll see what happens. As for now ... I'm in silent protest for what Asymptotic so aptly put ... pseudo-RP experienced by certain lawful types. Until further notice ... all my characters are playing the part of a neutral non-hostile.

[Orin]

Maybe with the old GMG. We pretty much won't bat an eye at you now.

(As long as you don't pirate our transports, naturally.)
