This is the reason its currently in w0, just ask DM.

Right down the middle split

Save the PvP for the first level of UZ. It would work just as well as a blockade.

how about make a galaxy that connects Lyceum to Serengeti. such as...
Lyceum> Warp Space> Serengeti. i find Lyceum the best and only place for pirates to pvp... dont take it away from us .

if it wasnt for the gsa, first lvl of uz would do the same as lyceum tho, i kinda like the in between gal suggestion.

I love pvp in lyceum, mainly because pirate like it XD. so when i want to hunt a pirate, i can just park my main ship and wait for him to show up lol.

The reason why Lyceum is the best is that compared to the UZ, people going for the ubers are generally in a fleet. Not many pirates can take on a force of several zerkers, some SD's, a seer, multiple ShM's and a DM or two. All at once.

It's overkill and unneeded suicide for the pirate.
However, the people going to Lyceum are generally in a travel ship, and therefore most of the time unarmed and more or less defenseless.

Then people like Dark Phantom will carry 10 to 30b in their travel ship, further adding an incentive to pirate in Lyceum.

Cloaked ships ftw?

More like Recon ftw. Unless you're Jey or use 2 Dem/Ada Patrol augs in your setup, ANY wannabe stealth Recon, be it a crappy seer or a nooby SD, can hide in Lyceum.

Ok, let's try this suggestion:

Pvp all day in Lyceum. Make it unprotected. BUT turning off your safety lock gets you locked out of any AI Protected galaxy. Turning the safety lock back on results in a 3 to 5 minute cooldown before your lockout ends.

Pirates attacking in Lyceum (or everywhere else for that matter) is kinda cool. Pirates taking their shots at you and then running to a protected galaxy where they have an MCed Shm sitting on autofire is an exploit. Even attacking a player and then running to an AI protected galaxy to regen is an exploit, or at least a very lame and cowardly way to play.

SDs and Seers will still just attack you and then run away and hide deep in Lyceum, but that's not as bad as having them go sit in an AI protected gal and talk smack to you on galaxy chat while refusing to fight.

What about pirates that cloak and run off in one direction, logged off?

no keep it how it is , if you shoot you get earthforce protected space agro woo!!!

Which is the problem, Gerch. You can shoot and NOT get Earthforce Aggro.

They can do that anywhere. They cant escape from pvp completely anywhere.

Do PvP SD's go 700 speed, in general?

If not, cloak, kick OBA, and wait for people to leave because you're 50k out and logged, or 50k out and not logged, waiting.

People with fast ships will always have the option to run away. That's just part of the game. Picking a fight and then sitting in earthforce space relying on AIs to protect you is the lame part.
