Maybe we could add a new faction named "Pirates"
for those people who want to earn some money and just be annoying
(like me)
Its just a though but i would like to get some replys on this
the ships would be a mixture of icc and ugto and all would be combat and boming ships

I doubt dreadnoughts are supposed to be "little".
Besides, "pirates" doesn't sound much like a player controlled faction. Would be more of an computer controlled faction going around harrasing people.
(and this isn't a new forum)

I think it would be cool to have some mystery during the game. A little like the 1800's on the seas, never knowing if there is a ship just over the horizon.

This could work.
Its been reported that the scenario servers are going to be removed after the patch, so new players would have to choose a faction with little knowledge or experience. 'Pirates' could provide another option.
If new players started off as none aligned, i.e. independents. They would have to some place to learn the basics of space combat, without having to worry about bigger issues like planet management and fleet actions.
FF rules could be suspended between independent (or pirates) they could fight each other or attack any of the three main factions.
They would have a gate that represented a secret 'free-port'.
They would be able to choose one of the main factions, after acheiving a certain rank i.e. 1st Lt. and be forced to do so before another rank i.e. Captain.
Independent would have a reduced prestige value to ranked players of the main factions to discourage farming newbies.
After all "What Self Respecting military officer would consider a pirate a worthy foe".
--edited for clarity.
