Some of us like to have a pirate with which we can just play the game and not worry about social interaction.
Inasmuch as the players list enhances the social aspects of the game, it seems like a very good thing for most people. To achieve the privacy you say you seek, you need to use a separate un-linked account. As Poison Elf pointed out, your other pirates (and linked pirates) are not private; they can still be accessed on the DxD website.

But then, the social aspect of the game is one of its finer selling points. If you really need to be alone much of the time, don't use the players list. For my pirates, it is a wonderful feature.
