OMG you should have been here some years ago. Back then pirate were a problem, now they a not even close to be a problem.
as was said before Space is Dangerus well that is a lie cuz it is not right now, so stop whining.
cuz i guess that from tomorrow when POB`s gets back you will see a dramatic rise in the pieratting pilots numbers so enjoy MUHAHA
I am not a native English Speaker, so i make grammar errors.
But it annoys me when people make silly comments about that... especially brits who for the most part can't speak their own language let alone anyone elses!

This isn't right at all. Why should I spend the time to get the ship that costs millions 108 to be exact and then buy the freight just to loose it why should I even bother playing the game it's now a waste of time. You will loose more and more RP'ers if this continues. 1 on 1 is fine I can deal with that but when 2 or 3 attack it's impossible. The scale of the game has turned South.
So if someone wants to be a pirate make them pay for it anyone who is a pirate put up a bounty board on all and anyone who is a pirate the full list and who is online at the time. Make the bounties high enough so it's worth while. Highlight in game on the chat channel in red when they are a pirate.
Place bounty at 4 million for low class and upwards to their ranks the higher the rank the more $$$. It isn't fair that traders suffer the most and we don't know who is who. I say this because I'm getting tired of loosing all kinds of credits because this wasn't thought through enough. If it continues I will leave the game. I'm on Skype Djoser197007, or my regular connection here, I would like some feed back
Thanks for your time
Hey buddy, you have to be careful making posts like this on this forum, you'll get dumped on and attacked worse then you were in game.

It is frustrating. Losing always is. Will always be.
It's especially hard for those who are new in the game and who still need the money to participate fully.
The important point is: Don't let it get to you.
PMed you. There are a few things you can do.
PS.: And, one lesson for this community: Don't complain on the forums. Too many idiots are in this "fine community" who feed on tears and who love to kick those that are down.
This is a nice guy, Kudos to you man!

When I was new and everyone and his dog managed to rob me and kill me instead of complaining I just started to learn how to fly. Note that back then the server was full of seasoned PvPers. Also th e server was full- 195 of 200 with 5 reserved slots- so 20 min were needed to log, the nowadays "my friend swaps his transport with his gb to protect my transport" thing was not possible.
Starting in half empty server full mostly of unskilled players is kinda several times easier. Now even the worst player can make several bilions in 2 weeks since there is almost none to rob and stop him and all routes pay a way better then before.
For instance my first mining attempts in Pennsylvania silver fields failed badly the first 3-4 times. At the 5th time I rolled with full armed cau6 Shire bought with money loan and hired bomber and vhf escorts so managed to sell my ore at my 7th attempt. Back then from the field in Penny to the sell point in Kusari were for sure at least 2-3 pirate encounters.
Good idea is to join some factions and read some FAQs and guides that are made to help new players.
We have also quite nice bounty board if you are pissed at some pirates offer 10 mill or more per their head and there would be plenty of people hunting for them, your proposal is irrelevant and stupid because you does not point out who would pay the proposed bounties. You have the option to bounty the pirates use it- simple as that. None should pay the proposed bounties for your own pleasure because it suits you better.
Also I find that you have one greater problem- your perception that you should have fair chance versus 2 or 3 other players. Can you image what would happen if everyone roll around with this wrong point of view?
What if I say that I must be able to deal with you and 2 of your friends alone every time? Such statements are just wrong. If you cannot deal with the fact that this is a game and you would loose a lot before you get better better leave now. Even the best of the best pilots around loose sometimes- they catch a odd mine/missile or get double razored or get ganked etc.
None like griefers anyway and your points shows that you are one.

I don't have allot of credits, but I have a AI Bot which you could sell on the forums, or even better, play with it as its a blast to fly, that way you can take a break from mining/cargo and have something funner to do if you want it?
other tip your flying a bison so get good armor and full Dulzian for anti snubs or Charon for bigger ships will help if it lead to shooting and picking the right shield will help
I am kind of surprised to see a thread like this too, in the wake of seeing so many threads saying there were too few pirates. Sounds like you may have had a couple bad days there
