You can but its much slower. All you need to do is to get to lvl cap and then become a pirate. If you will become a pirate your lvling will all be with your a$$ up in a farm gethering and planting. Not really a pirate way.
So as i said lvl to cap as fast as you can by any means, then go pirating.
If you will get good pirate guild its bring more income then farming with much more fun.

Usually its a power thing, certain types can feel powerless in their own lives and seek to overcome this in games, it would be very easy to pigeonhole such atypical reactions, although its more than a little amusing to see how a little 'psychological profiling' works to further 'identify' an individual case, given that the subject is male and possibly early 20's, though the implied maturity level does seem lower, that probably indicates that the subject is still living at home with a parent(s), i say parent because the anger levels and the defensive attitude displayed implies that there may have been a break up of some kind which the subject was powerless to affect, the subject may also be unemployed or perhaps 'under employed' reinforcing the 'powerlessness' they feel, which can often be due to a feeling that what they do has little impact or potential for advancement, an example of which may well be someone who collects shopping trollies at a local supermarket, being able to overcome this and regain a feeling of 'power' in a game might well be cathartic for such a person.
Or they might just be trolling for the hell of it
Well, i can say when i was teenager playing UO I terrorized people because i wanted to be hunted back I wanted to fight someone anyone. I loved the competition the challenge of the red life couldn't shop from vendors couldn't enter towns very much, the stat loss, the prestige of being red. I wanted the blues to form up and try to chase and kill me. It was all about the hunt. The other part was sometimes i killed people of rival guilds simply to stop their progression so they would grow more powerful more slowly and gave us a territorial dominance. Killing was the business and business was good nothing personal. I didnt hate anyone at all i didnt want people to be sad or quit and i certainly didn't want people to feel grief. I was just playing an outlaw and often times i helped players out and get them in the game and I geared them out and showed them some ropes helped them recover bodies or hunt a bit while chatting. Now days, I really dont do that and i pretty much just spend my time crafting and exploring and I dont really pvp like I used to. Maybe its a testosterone thing because i feel more lethargic in life too and I dont box anymore and just pretty much laze about so i laze about in game lol.
In my experience, people who are really good at PVP and PKing don't start whiny threads in general MMO sites bellyaching about how you can't PK from level 1... they just f**king do what they need to do and have whiners for breakfast... just saying.

I would love to see the tears when they get wtfpwned. They always cry the loudest these tough PK types.
it's like the real world. murderers exist but they get punished and there are significantly less of them than there are law abiding people. Eve is the same way. there's no barrier saying you can't gank people as they undock but few people try to do thisd
it makes it more immersive, not less, for me. in a game like DF where there is little discouragement for lawlessness, you just assume everyone is a dick and keep away from everyone not in yourclan or alliance.
RIP Ribbitribbitt you are missed, kid.

How sad it is that some people can only find joy in destroying or harrassing other players. I will say that I hope you find a game that fits your playstyle because you will never affect me since I like to help people, play cooperatively and work together to have fun.
People who enjoy the type of things the OP does in a video game should be taken to a phsychologist as its an indication of a mental instability issue.
I pity you OP and I hope you get some help because you certainly need it, just like every other player out ther ewho would agree with you.
So your main goal is to grief what you call carebears?
A very interesting route your taking. However you better find a guild that share your same goals asap.
Another thoguht: Why is it that these FFA pvp greifers never seem to learn that this playstyle NEVER works, and EVERY SINGLE ONE of these types of games have failed to pick up a large audience and last more than a couple years.
When will they learn?
+10 for logic.
If this is how the OP wants to play and the game allows it who is anyone to judge. If it is not your style, team up with a guild and travel in packs. Ganker won't go after a group and look to get the easy solo kills. Want to kill half his enjoyment? If he kills you, collect your corpse and move on. If you don't throw a fit in private chat he has nothing to post on youtube as people on youtube belittle gank videos as it shows no skill.
They just want to get the player reaction and in a video game you can easily ignore them and not respond to their taunts. Granted seeing he/she/it said carebear and people wigged out, he is already winning.

But they do work, just for a smaller audience.
Also, in fairness, there aren't that many high end AAA FFA games around. They always seem to be cobbled together by enthusiastic gamer/developers.
The average "gamer" sort of wants a polished, complete experience.
To that end the same question can be asked "how is it that strictly pve players always play games with FFA pvp or a heavy pvp component and then complain?
The easiest way "not" to be griefed is not to play these games.
As far as what another poster asked regarding "how the OP" wants to play. I don't think people are agitated over him wanted to play as a "pirate". I do think they are agitated because it doesn't seem to be about "playing a pirate" but "getting off" on griefing other players and then taking it "out of game" to post on other sites.
That to me speaks volumes.
