Meh, pirates want to hold on to their shiney ships just as much as the rest of us.

They're better at PvP granted, as they generally have more experience.

Linefighting has gone the way of the dodo every since heavy frigates arrived on the scene in large numbers; best of all worlds. Not exactly practical to come up with a new tactic when your enemy can react twice as fast as you, is it?

Better if everyone jumps in herc variants.

Most Pirates fought the French in 6v6s frequently at the start untill NOs became overpowered.

Hmm, pirates complain they get nerfed, then they complain noone wants to fight them - then they complain noone wants to fight them some more.

I reckon everything is alright in the kingdom of PotBS. After all - it must be all the nationals who are just daft. Oh, and those that do fight them, usually get a complaint about their choice of ship... go figure.

Worse yet is the sense of entitlement we see amongst so many of the pirates, they feel they are entitled to a fight and we nationals are somehow obligated to give it to them. Oh, and make sure to bring a ship to the fight that they'd fancy taking command of themselves, we wouldn't want to waste their time after all.

True - we definately don't want to waste their precious time! So we should just bring more solo 1st rates to OS pvp and stop avoinding the "not so powerful" pherc groups. After all, a herc mc is just soooo much cooler. And available to to all privateers... and costs about 5 x the price of a pherc... but hey! It *is* slightly better!
