giving up on piracy
I no longer see the point. There is a certain romance to it, perhaps, but the pragmatist in me won’t let me continue down this path.
The main force behind my decision to turn to the dark side was to find PvP. I was longing after something of the experiences that I had in UO many years ago, but now that Factional Warfare is out, I no longer have to stoop to preying on the innocent (though this is EVE, after all, where even the carebears have fangs) to get my PvP.
I plan to keep working on a blog, updating more frequently perhaps, since I won’t have to wait for a notable piratey type event to occur to have something to write about.
The domain name doesn’t much seem to fit anymore though. If you want it - send me a message and we can work out what to do about transferring it.
