The Privateers situation was quite a shame, really. Before the incident, we had quite a bit of respect for them – the amount of work required to band together and maintain so many disparate corps and pilots was clearly sizable, and its disappointing that it had to end with them temporarily dissolving.It seems that Faction Warfare resulted in the greatest blow to them in the end – when corps can get PvP at any time for free, and effectively always have a force to fight when they want, the maintenance fees to pay for the wars seem rather steep.However, as mentioned the Privateers have re-joined their alliance, and here’s hoping that they can once again rebuild their forces to the level they were previously – they were quite effective and fun to fight once, and I hope they will be again in the future, as long as they don’t overdo it again!
