I like the : "It’s just that we’ve got an extremely broad definition of salvage, and sometimes if the salvage won’t stop wigging, you have to nail it to a board and hit it repeatedly with a heavy stick." You are playing EVE how you want to - and enjoying it too. Leave the labelling to others. Flashfresh You and your chaps are almost unique in New Eden – salvagers with style and attitude.

So I don't have any problem at all with the notion that people need to be killed or at least driven out. I once spent an hour shooting at gas miners in battlecruisers, even though I was in a caracal and hadn't a prayer of actually killing them. They couldn't ignore me, and they couldn't mine gas while dealing with me, and they couldn't catch and kill me, so eventually they went away. Which is what I wanted. Mandrill, my own definition of a pirate is somebody who solicits ransoms as their profession. But there are some high sec denizens who seem to think any sort of PvP is piracy.

Wanted to add the me and my corp mates treat our W like it's our space. If you come into it expect to die, or at least to have to defend yourself. Can’t seem to edit comments?

"It’s just that we’ve got an extremely broad definition of salvage, and sometimes if the salvage won’t stop wigging, you have to nail it to a board and hit it repeatedly with a heavy stick." There's nothing wrong with doing a bit of PvP on the side for some entertainment. Side Note - I want to say the blockade runner rocks. I had to sell the idea to one of my corp mates - but it just paid for itself when I ran through a gate camp in low sec with nary a scratch, and the 700+ million isk load made it to the high sec drop off point safe and sound.

To be a pirate, you must be breaking a law, as enacted by the controlling power in the space within which you commit the lawbreaking act (be they Concord, an NPC empire, or a player alliance). You effectively control the WH system you reside in, so you are the law. Therefore you are not a pirate, and anyone invading your space when you don't want them there, is. If anything you are an anti-pirate. This reasoning of course depends on my weasely and morally ambiguous interpretation of legal theory. According to concord and all the hi-sec empires I am of a piratical nature myself, I would use the above reasoning if and when I encountered Concord, if they would only give me the time to do so :D well said sir.
