huh, hello ? There are designated borders? Borders that mean we can only play in certain ' waters' ?

Now I know u r kiddin!

Long have all of us that svs regularly wanted servers for just svs so we dont encounter normal ships n npc ships and because most importantly it would combat lag.
Since no such thing exists then the whole map is fair game, and the chase adds to the thrill.
Pity u cant complain to the capt of that man o war flag that keeps meandering into play just off avaricia cos he sure left his ' waters '!

Really I cant believe u are complaining about that, there are cheats n glitchers who do deserve your frown but 'leaving of SvS waters' ... Puleease!

Yet Im gonna add more... In a football game if the guy who keeps runnin with the ball n scoring goals is a problem for the other team - and he surely is, cos his goals mean that they are losing, they tackle him avoid passing near him n change tactic to acheive their mission.... which is to get the top score, this is known as 'the game'...... Likewise, getting the score and the bounty in svs and keeping hold of it for as long as ya can is the game of svs.
The 'pitch' is the WHOLE map, the first and last disney allocated border you bump into is the edge of the map.
Regarding the bounty: if u got it giggle n run, cos if u dont its gonna be like a rugby tackle to get it off you. And everyone knows we sink n get sunk, thats also part of the game.
If u are playing a tactical game use the example of our pirate forefathers and go see where the ones with the bounty are at.
This may make no sense to u since yer mind is made up but some people... I mean MOST people, lag in an area of high activity so they use their brains n stay out of it, thus skirting the action, this is a cool tactic as your gunners with lightning get to shoot off sails!! (hopefully you dont think thats dispicable behaviour).
And NOO one this side of forever is nuts enough to drop anchor in the thick of it and repair.... if that is yer thinkin dont even bother tryin to repair just drive right in and let some one sink you cos the end result is the same (and no wonder you are so disgruntled by the whole game of svs!)
It does however become tiresome when people get all glitchy an verbally abusive, but constant attacks at the same team is also part of the game if you find fair competition then its fair game to sink em. If however, u dont like any of the above .... DONT PLAY.

Really did you think other players were going to politely comply with your wishes and hand the bounty to you on a plate, then quietly sail away, end of story?
You know.....I couldn't agree more. You need to change your tactics if someone is doing to good for you, it is more fun to not be limited to the space between the islands (you aren't limited anyway....last I checked there is NO border), you need to play smart (avoid going into crowded areas if your outmatched or are having bad lag), and most importantly......who wouldn't put up a fight for the score and bounty they worked hard to obtain? at first when I read this it sounded like the person was mad that they couldn't take the other players bounty or score away. If I am SvSing and I have a high bounty or score......I know the others will come after me. In the end the pirate with the better tactics will pull off the victory. Call these tactics annoying, cowardly, or whatever else.....as long as the person isn't glitching theres NOTHING stopping them from doing so.
