Ship Battles and Cowardice

[Edward Edgemenace]

The point of the pirate's code, is that you don't cheat other pirates. So stop.

When I SvS and have to leave, I sail to the enemy island to get sunk one last time (to leave the bounty in the game) then drop anchor once back at my base island. But not if my opponents were obviously cheating (one-hit-wonder/leapfrogging/lag-bombing/infinite-ammo.) If there is a ship out there that provided particularly good (and fair) battles, I'll seek them out and say good night as they sink me that last time.

Again, nothing inherently wrong with spying, but everything imaginable wrong with sabotage. Board other's ships to find their position? Clever. Board other's ships to fire at navy/EITC/skeleton ships or to steal wheel to prevent repairs? Reprehensible. Do I click REPORT on such people? You bet. But the next day they are back with another throw-away level 8 pirate. I don't know about you, but seeing that, makes me play SvS a lot less.
