If pirates are still a problem, I have an idea for a balance/fix. They start out using a TL1 station, of a design from the empire that pirates from. Each time resources get moved, they take a small percentage of what gets moved by airports(assuming its just space piracy), that slowly increases. Eventually, they start taking money from taxes. When they take enough money, they'll tech up. With the resources they take, they build ships.

This way, they're can be ignored early on, and still can be beaten by single-player empires that don't log in regularly, but if ignored for long periods of time can be a serious threat.
