I agree with Ed, cheating isn't called for. Ingame he was telling me how sometimes its not the other crews fault. I can understand if the other crew isn't doing anything and its just the game its self......but when it is on purpose thats just sad. Sure everyone wants to win and may not like sinking....but to cheat just to get a win? really.

This is one of the reasons I don't SvS often even though I am good at it.....its hard to find people who play fair anymore.

------------------------------------------
and to comment on the original post which I don't believe I have....

* Leaving SvS waters to make repairs

How is someone being a child because of this?? Anyone whos good at SvS or has common sense knows NOT to stay in the middle of a battle while your damaged.

* Leaving SvS waters because someone is pursuing you

A despicable coward? If your running from somebody, yes, I agree it is annoying but it isn't cheating. The person isn't using any glitch they are simply trying to keep their score or plunder....don't we all?

* Leaving SvS waters and returning to ambush people with high bounties

Little better than garbage? Ok, I agree that this may not seem "fair" but it is smart if your just out their for bounties. Sure you may not be fighting until the enemy least expects it, but if your not gonna glitch I really see no problem in this.

* Leaving SvS waters altogether

This doesn't say somebody is a coward unless they decide to not return to the battle at all. This does get annoying but you also have to realize....some people doing this could be new to the game and not really know whats going on. I have seen plenty of times that a basic pirate would launch then head off to another area.

* Continuously seeking "revenge" against someone who sank you

Its common sense to attack the ship that has the highest bounty or looks to be a challenge to you. You want to sink someone who sank you? thats really your choice in the end. Now if this revenge involves glitching.....I agree you DO need to grow up, if not, its fair game.

* Using spies
Get a life. For your own health - get a life.

Spies are uncalled for. But also its sorta the captain of the ships fault too. If the captain makes it so ONLY HIS/HER CREW can board then you wouldn't have spies on the ship would you? If the person thats spying launches a ship from your island to listen to the privateer chat......obviously switch to CREW chat.

----------------------------------
I admit I do get tired of some of this, but in the end it is just tactics that anybody could use to win. The only CHEATING in SvS is when somebody CHOOSES to GLITCH.

and just a note.....I have tried to avoid reading this so if there were any changes made by the poster, I am just commenting on the original post.
