I agree with all of the above. My Pirate girls are an extension of me & I try to be a nice, respectful person in RL & Virtual Life. I am on Pirates more to interact with my friends & Guild & all started as strangers that I now love rather than being very competitive. Asking to tp, being respectful of a Captain's ship (it is their home!) not rep stealing (there are plenty of other places/servers to move to) & making friends (not runby friending) are without question to me. I too am always happy to friend someone from POF though :) I am proud & extremely Happy with my Guild although I respect some of our other POF Guilds that are great too & I have friends in.

I have a code! :)

1: Always respect crewmates, guildmates, and captain.

2: Stay of Captains deck, and cannons, unless advised to get on.

3: Never take the wheel of my ship unless you have permisson.

4: Be kind to ALL pirates at all times!(that includes noobs/baby pirates)

5: Glitch.

6: I will always heal/revieve you when needed.

7: Befriend others wisely.

8: If you are rude to me dont expect, any help from me.

9: Never ask me to be your GF. This is pirates online, not eHarmony.(:

10: Always grab a cannon when entering a battle.

11: Respect the Captain of the ship your on.

12: Always call the Captain, Captain.

13: Have fun, and don't go to jail! :D

Im nice to everyone, defend my friends to the end, never rep steal, and never TP without asking.

I DETEST rep stealers. Was at Tormenta during double rep this weekend, and had a girl show up and start lobbing nades at my Urchins. We had a crew, but only one at a time was hitting the Urchins. A friend of hers shows up, cops an attitude, and then starts hitting everything we are after.

I just corralled some Thralls and Urchins, and brought em over while he was nading. =) Needless to say, he took a trip to jail since he had no friends healing. Was glad to be rid of him.

my code: take what u can, give nothing back

I guess I'll be glad to add my personal code to the list:

1. Always present yourself as a person of good character, whether its with your friends, your guild, or complete strangers. You never know when that might make a decision for you.
2. Don't bother other pirates just because they share an opposite opinion, or just because you don't like them. You can't simply judge somebody by what they believe in, who they are, or who their affiliated with.
3. A little humor is required to get us through the day, but a serious attitude should always be kept in your back pocket when its needed.
4. Always ask before teleporting. I enjoy privacy, and I'm sure some others do as well.
5. I'll be glad to heal/revive ye under me own will, just don't demand it!
6. If yer on somebody's ship, ye follow their ships rules!
7. NEVER EVER cheat or hack in POTCO. I'm firm as a rock when it comes to this, and if I catch ye, ye WILL be prosecuted.
8. I will ALWAYS use proper grammar when I type. talken lik tis is hard 2 read, n i lik it bettr if u put sum effrt in.
9. I'm a flower if your nice, but dont EVER, EVER attack my friends or my guild. Because just like that I can turn on my lawyer/pitbull button.
10. I will always try my best to treat pirates well, even if they treat me bad in return.
11. I will make sure it takes a lot to make my kindness platform break. But when it breaks, you better not be within a mile.
12. POTCO is a game, and games are meant to have fun. So sit back, relax, and let the good times roll. Because you never know when the good times will leave you forever.

My Rules
 

1) I always ask for a reason why you want to add me as your friend, if you say "oh your such a high level" FORGET IT!

2) If you ask me out, or ask me to be your girlfriend, well this is not a dating service and I WILL ignore you! I am here to play and have fun, NOT DATE save it for the real world thank you.

3) I always do unto others as they do unto me :) (you help me, I help you, easy as that)

4) I always ask before teleporting to someone, and I always expect them to do the same

5) I don't revive the lower level people who try to attack the Isla Tormenta enemies more than one time. If they are dumb enough to fight something twice there level while groggy, then so be it. (I am not your keeper)

6) I always ask before I join in fighting if there is a crowd, instead of just blasting away at everything and stealing rep.

7) DO NOT tell me how to drive my ship! And do not take the wheel of my ship without asking me first, and NEVER tell me my cargo is full until I have full royals XD.

8) Be respectful to my crew mates, guild members and friends... you gain my respect that way.

10) If you demand help, or demand me to teleport I will ignore you. But if you ask politely I will try to help unless I am busy.

11) I am a really nice person, however when pushed over the edge I have a bad temper, so I just log off before I say anything that could risk me being banned or suspended.

Thats exactly it... I will help you, and be nice to you, and assist/heal you as long as you do NOT EXPECT it from me. =)

:vwink: A common theme is respect.

1. Never take off your black skull bandana
2. Try to answer questines the best you can
3. Someone being mean? Confuses em! I have a story about confusing people...

I was waiting for a boss battle and a person said..

Person: Whats a BB?
Me: Bb = boss battle
Person: Ik that noob
Me: Have fun with that
Person: Have fun with what?
Me: That
Person: Uh i'm going to go pvp the noob!
Me: Wait! I thought we were going to pvp! XD.

BACK ON TOPIC
4: Try to make people join your crew ion SvS so if they don't listen you you, kick em
5: LISTEN TO THE RULES SAVVY?!?
6: Newer people aren't noobs, there just new to the game and might not know what to do
7: Don't call people names ( other than there pirate name )
8: Be nice, we pirates stick together savvy?

wow u guys call urselves pirates im sorry but im disgusted.
my code is..........
1 take all u can give nothing back
that is all i will occasionally help other pirates but im usually out for myself. i am a free pirate thats why i dont join guilds that have a code its just lame

Codes are lame...You have a code...but codes are lame...but you ...have...zzzzz....a c..c..c..code.... but...but...but..but..c...c..c..codes are lame... this does not compute...ZZZzzzzZZZZzzzztttt....boom.

Cut to Dr McCoy: "Green-blooded Vulcan Logic...."

Calm down, Francis... :psmiley35:

Not only should You Not ever touch my bowl of pasta, Don't even let the thought of touching my German chocolate birthday cake even cross your mind!!!

Yes, but no one is going to know anytime! :p

Well, I'm also sorry to say that that's boring. I level up faster with my friends! And when I don't level up fast wth them, I still stay with them! Just for the fun! I'm a good friend, and I love helping friends and guild members too! But really, doesn't that sound fun? So when you're doing nothing, go out and help a friend or someone you don't know. Guild members are ALWAYS a friend, to me!! So at least help someone, by joining their guild for a little, you can exit out of it later.

Question for you, Why did the crew of the Black Pearl go back for Jack at the end of Pirates 1 and why did Elizabeth and Will defend Jack at his hanging?

Follow the 5 Korsair Rules, and you will be a friend of mine:

Rule #1 Don't touch the Dragon, only in dire circumstances may you. (In the event I have my connection brake.)

Rule #2 Do not ask me what sword I have.
