hey, I wanted to know what's going on with the NPC ships? I haven't seen them in a while and I need them for piracy, Is it just me or is a whole server problem?
The more players there are on the server, the fewer NPCs there are. Above 150 or so players, no NPCs will spawn.

If you just want to pirate NPCs, play single player.

Or play during off hours. Lots of NPCs when server count under 100.
NPCs spawn when there are fewer players.
When there are many players, fewer NPCs spawn to reduce server lag.

Also, wrong section.
didnt know that npcs spawn more when are less players
The spawner looks at server load when deciding. The more players the more fighting and the higher the load.
