Of lore but not history. I see only two options: dropping, ignoring, or leaving. Use those verbs as you wish.

A well said word is more important than a well-heeled shoe. Hee, hee heh. Words are the drivers that will carry us from victory to victory. Words are the means, to bring about...

...The End!

Some people got it, some people don't.

Arrrgh! I liked that commercial when I first saw it but after the 30th or so time, it's begun to lose it's appeal. Similar to the "You'll be golfing with a lady today" commercial.

True enough, no real historical support for walking the plank. Though, there are a few examples of it in the Pirates of the Caribbean movies, which might be enough of a justification needed to implement. However, I think the option could also be abused (i.e., let's get a crew together, invite someone to join, then have them walk the plank after we've filled our cargo). Finding a way around that might be tough.

I have had this happen, and I immediately boot them off the wheel. I also say that under no circumstances are they to take the wheel without asking first. I honestly dont mind letting someone else drive once in a while, but they had better ask first... If they try it again, I boot them, full cargo or not, we land and I tell them why they are getting booted from my friends list. Has only actually gotten that far once. But then again, I am usually very careful about who I make my friends *shrugs*.

I wish there was such a feature to prevent certain players from taking the helm (especially when I try to grapple the flagship). The comical thought that came to mind was just like when I put "the CLUB" on my steering wheel when I park my car.

that's a pretty good idea. just make them them governor of that small island and see they can find those sea turtles to escape.

I think a "keel haul" or "lash to the mast and flog wid a cat-o-nine-tails" skill would be in order for this type of situation. After all, keeping a disciplined crew was a big part of being a good captain.

It was regular chat. I guess that could have been it.. Why wouldn't he have been able to hear me though?

The ONLY thing that really gets me fired up and mad in this game, besides other pirates being jerks and shooting at my ship, is somebody taking the wheel of my ship. I wish they'd instate a "bite" option.

I'm respectful of other captains while on their ship, and expect the same in return. If they can't abide by that, they don't get back on my ship.
