Walk the plank?

I was much less kinder then some of you, still am. If they were of a low level lacking a good teleport totem, I would maroon said pirate on Isla Tormenta.
I still do that now, or I will sometimes just crew them and not care, considering I have not much better to do at the high point of level 40.

Yeah, this is total proof that this is not game fit for anybody. A true Pirates would be on his ship 21/7, and he wouldn't just get off of his boat for any little thing. Pirates doesn't respect that idea, so they add these ghost ships, and lag up the servers for their own thrills. Sometimes I think that they are watching us attack certain ships, and sometime I believe they sink us, and even give us crappy cargo.

Pirates needs to add more Sea emphasis to the game, and need to make it less laggy. They also need to add a Drop Cargo option to your ship, and allow us to use more ammo types on our broadsides.

Well said Raikel. They also need to let us customize our own ships. I would love to have a WS with more hp and chaser (front) and fleeing (rear) cannons.

What i'd also like to see, and sorry for going OT, but I want to see something like an ammo stockpile, where you can buy like 500 of each ammo type, and yer crew can jsut grab it.

I agree with customization of ships, shouldn't be difficult to do, paint it blue if u want or stick logo's on it and maybe sticking your "standard" of the guild you belong to as a Flag? (May make privateering more exciting if its between guilds!? e.g. you just got sunk by a ship from 'your guilds name' - suggestion?)
As for Weapons no, I think someone who sails in their ship should know its capabilities and maneouvre for crew. Maybe a secret chest of stash of weapons or gold even, can be buried in a chest on a wild island somewhere?

They may have been just referring to the "ultra-cool" update... Aka "We added 5 new ship names to choose from..."
They would do that...

I use public ships alot! I always ask to crew if they like & if they are looking for anything special. I appreciate the ride, battle, $ etc. I also have found friends this way. I don't have many friends outside of my Pixie Piratez Guild yet so this is the best way to get the ships I need although I don't worry about it too much. I figure if I need Navy & they are going for EITC at least I get some cash & get to blast ships. I can get my ships later. It is too bad some pirates could ruin this option. I did get on a ship & the Capn said she was on a special mission & had forgotten to uncheck public (before I shot anything) so I said Good Luck & tped off. Too bad some pirates forget a ship is a pirate's home & as a guest you should act like one!!!

I would really like to have this feature. It should not be hard to change since it works for svs.

A bad apple on a ship is a real fun killer. I am paying good money to play this game, and as stated previous me ship is me home yo ho!

So why not activate this feature for all voyages?

In the days before we had the option for captains permissions, you had the problem of random tpers who became random shooters and also wheel stealers the moment they came aboard, they might be people who saw you launching from shore who clicked on you to get your card up then tp to you after you boarded; they might be people who were sailing close to you and clicked on any member of your crew so that they could tp over to that person. And Im fairly sure at first if they took your wheel even the captain couldnt snatch his own wheel back. In those days we had no means of booting people at all, they might even hide in the bulk head of your ship as you could glitch into it then, random shoot, swim off ship and annoy the rest of crew with spamming, it was pretty nasty some times....

I remember those days well and how the little Ratpacks of griefers would open your card in order to follow you around game. Once they TP'd to you they would have all their buddies TP to them in order to cause trouble with other players both on land and at sea. Changing servers didn't help as once they had your card open they could still follow you.

The ships boarding permissions were a real blessing once they arrived. If only Disney would keep them functioning. I've seen them out of commission for weeks at a time. And there is still much room for improvement with them. The ability to boot players from your ship is greatly needed in regular play not just as a feature of SVS. There are many ways in which teleport functions could be improved. For example I'd like to see a feature added that allows you to deny someone who attempts to TP to you. A simple popup screen with a deny or allow choice that pops up whenever someone attempts to TP to you, would solve the issue of unwanted people teleporting to you in game whether on land or at sea.

I'd like to see a feature added that would automatically boot from ship any player refusing to accept the captains crew invite. As an added feature to a walk the plank button I believe it would be good for that player who was booted to be blocked during the remainder of your logged in game session, that way they cannot return to you and continue making a nuisance of themselves with you or your crew.
