I am also a complete noobie about ships, but i can say one thing very easily:
this pirate/merchantman thing was just not well thought out and should be
tuned quickly. It is WAY too easy for one good player to get a rocking pirate
ship and go around fucking everyones game. A good friend of mine poured tons
of money into his ship and he loved it, ooga sank it and he left the game.
Well I understand that its "part" of the game, but b4 you could just not own a
ship, now you HAVE to own a ship, and we've seen how well "no pkill rules"
muds work. THey dont. Basically on the high seas now you have a "no pkill
rules" mud, and essentially a lotta noobies will get their ships sunk by
people who are just "playing the game" as the rampant dickheads claim.

"The little boy watched the rowboat leave the harbour with admiration.
After the boat was some hundred feets away from the shore when black sails
appeared to horizon.
Sailor of the rowboat panicked and tried to row faster towards the deep seas.
Boat was fast, but the
Warship bearing the marks of pirates was faster. After the collision water was
filled with splints of wood
filled the water and hideous laughter was heard from the destroyer..."
Umm, First of all, do you have any idea how many active pirates there are and
how awfully big the sea is? (This is meant mostly for sailors, PIRATES do need
reinforcements, or maybe npc ones)
Secondly, Those pirateships sink too, no one stops people from attacking them
or forming a navy fleet to sink them. 1 6class is no match for 2x 5 class or
so. Those ships don't sink "automatically", they usually require someone
making a mistake.
Thirdly, If you have to take it so seriously and If you cant face that your
ship can sink, maybe you shouldn't get one.
Someone implements a brilliant idea for player to player action and people who
haven't even tried whine about it?
And about fucking the game part, it takes some time for ship to sink (same can
happen without battle by crashing the ship), and costs few ks to get the ship
back. How is this affecting anyhting? Maybe deaths to monsters should be
disabled too as they fuck my skill% gaining and require me to play more...
gimme a break
