Very Important Lessons (VIL's)

[Crazypirate]

With all the flaming skulls and nades flying during an invasion attempting to grind a single attack weapon during an invasion is a futile endeavor!

[JM Ohara]

Don't get too attatched to your pirates. They will eventually be mastered and retired.

The phrase 'Keep your friends close and your enemies closer' is bogus. Enemies take a lot of damage when they're close.

Hehe, here's a good one, beware the non working CD drive!

Some short VIL's regarding invasions:

1) the lag on full server's makes the invasion no fun.
2) the best rep I've gotten was when the total island defending population was between 14 and 20 pirates.
3) if you are the ONLY person on the island, JR will just make some comment and the invasion won't happen
4) the smallest group I've seen defend PR is 4. But even then, you must protect both beaches.
5) the 'next' wave of attackers will not come if you don't defeat the previous wave. i.e., there were 4 of us all on the main beach. No one on Darby's beach. Wave one came in and we defeated tehm all on main beach, but wave 2 didnn't come in until we ran over to Darby and beat those enemies, too.

You cannot whisper to yourself.
(Dang it)

ROFL, nope, ya can't, however... When you want to keep a whisper private it will always end up in guild, crew, or open chat.

So true. Then hopefully you and your close mates will chat alot so it rapidly clears the chat area on the screen before many people notice.

-Sighes- But if your mates are like mine they will point it out instead so everyone reads it .

Whenever D puts out an update, expect the load screens to get longer by the same amount it took to load said update!

Don't attack the EITC Fleet when you are the only person on the server!

Why not? Nothing like a good challenge. (And how did you manage to find a server where nobody butted-in?)

If you just applied for test access, don't expect it any time soon

Footnote: If you just applied to test don't expect a response for at least 5 months.
(Been waiting since September myself.)

[JM Ohara]

When delaying starting the pearl quest don't wait too long. Sinking vipers and such at level 36 just is a total waste of the better rep you could have gotten doing the quest at lower levels.
