A humble request to the NY pirates

[Asgardian]

I do wish pirates would spice it up a little, make it a little harder to find them. If a pirate is in Liberty, he/she's almost certainly either in the WP-MH, WP-CaliTL in New York or the New York JG-Planet Mojave TL in California. I've seen veeerrrry few pirates stray from these three lanes and actually continue pirating.

I'd like to see pirates in the badlands tradelane; somewhere a LPI officer would ever dare enter without his donuts and a Navy officer without his ejection seat checked and re-checked.

Unfortunately, thanks to a certain incident with a faction a while back, we can no longer control independents. You'll find it is primarily independents who operate these trade lanes... the LR- rarely go to NY unless for a specific reason, and we never really pirate there... especially not now that the LR Dessie was moved.

The LN have a mandatory crusier and above roster which all independents must register. Although we can't make them sell their ships, if they refuse to abide by role-playing rules, they can be listed as "rogue".

Does that mean pirates can't pirate on the Planet New Berlin -> Dortmund lane, "because it's a capital planet". Or how about the Planet New London -> Dublin Jump Gate lane? You can't pirate there either? Both have nearby debris / asteroid fields.

In all fairness, the New London>Dublin Gate lane does have a BAF Battleship stationed on it on anti-pirate duties. Not a good idea to pirate that lane, closer to the gate maybe.
I'd be more inclined to say go for the New London> Southampton lane or Southampton> Leeds gate lane. Together it's a long lane and an asteroid/debris field pretty much runs the length of it.

Let's just make this clear, Fletcher is not talking about pirating at those lanes, he's on about positioning a pirate fleet, with gunboats et al.

Pirating at those lanes should be discreet, couple of werewolves and a barghest will see you through any piracy event and has the skill to turn around and leg it quick if the lawfuls turn up. Which is what a pirate should do. I have seen those two lanes from both sides of the fence and for the most part it really is a place to stay until the lawfuls show up so you can force a PvP. There's not much RP that goes on in those two lanes.

Sometimes the LR will be paid to run a distraction operation in which case it's all hands to pumps and off to those lanes, but we'll talk it up, pretending we're up to no good in a different manner. It's a distraction after all.

I asked you for pictures of that and you said you had none >.>

Not sure if I've already started my opinions here, so I'll just be brief and say that Del's post pretty well embodies my thoughts.

He gets it better than I can word it.

If Players can camp in New berlin, why shouldn't they in New York?... setup LPi and Navy patrols... and kill them pirates.

Yep, too many pirates in general. That's why I just deleted my Corsair and am going lawful with all my chars. Thinking of forming an anti piracy/terrorism task force.
