I agree with not crowding or rudely shoving your way into the presence of the GM’s or other players, Pirates need to be patient and considerate. I do believe the Captain is not trying to limit this at all and would most likely have a “More the Merrier” perspective.
I totally agree with Zep in the perspective that Leaders or high level players should not push their way in and take “seating” that would be better suited for newer and lower level players. Allow others to Crew up with and draw closer to the GM’s. I know many higher level Pirates get excited as well when the Captain and the GM Leadership makes appearances, that is understandable,.. use good judgment Pirates.
On the other hand,… I do not think that, nor believe the Captain would want any level of Pirate to not participate, but in fact, show up at the docks as well, to perhaps take part in the leadership.
Meaning this, if you are a higher level Pirate,.. there is a good possibility you will receive a on the spot commission to gather Pirates (due to the amount of turnout) and crew and teach newer Pirates. There are many savvy and seasoned Pirates who could offer sound advice to many newer Pirates.
These events are largely PR Events with a touch of input as a consequential benefit. They do learn from events, but “Testing” is not the motive, enrichment and game fruition is.
My concern is this as well,.. Many of the old Salty Pirates may miss out on surprises given spontaneously to event participants if they choose to not involve themselves, and from my perspective, (no disrespect to newer members) the Long standing Members deserve a first hand view of any special game revelations.
Disney loves to pop up with things without prior notice!

Especially regarding making friends, joining a guild, using chat, etc. These are items that aren't immediatley obvious to the new player, and would enhance the entire gaming experience. "

Stay tuned Basil, I believe the Captain is going to be addressing this particular thing very soon.
