You do not know how great that would be for me.
1: Less lag from all the non-members.
2: Not so many little annoying ships firing at my ship or following me from one side of the ocean to the other.
3: Less friend requests and crew invites from people I don't know, I get a lot from members but it would help this problem
4: Everytime I'm at PR or Tortuga, I sometimes have people following me around, more less spying.
It would be wow if Disney accomplsihed this.
