you get money equal to the ships bounty when you sink it. come on though, this is not fair. they need to have servers where say only normal ships can ship pvp. i am tired of having 2 frigates vs. 70 war frigates with lightning. this sucks.

Hi just joined the Forum and I think POTC is ace, been playing since May and at Not. lvl 27, Privateeering is ace isn't it....

I think this a valid point below, there's nothing worse than someone having more cannons than u and making mincemeat out of your ship (although I guess it can be fun as well....)
But there's nothing worse than some War Frigate/ Galleon Capt with Full crew, fully loaded with lightning, fireballs, etc..., just staying off either Spanish/French port right next to you and other ships and blasting you away when not of your all crew are aboard yet or your trying to figure out which ship is hitting you. There probably should be some sort of zone around Avercia/De Porc where opposition can not enter but still fire at you.
On another point (if you'll bear with me for those still reading...)
I was playing last night on Vachira server and it was pretty even between French and Spanish you could workout who had sensibly got some crew, who didn't have crew, who knows wear to hit your ship and who to avoid, who to stick with and those War Frigate/Galleons who only go for small ships then cut and run soon as they get hit - Obviously it was the French ships who did that - its not like them to run so easy is it??
