Is membership worth it ? (Need your Opinions)

[enchantedgrace]

I am coming back to Pirates after a little over a year.
I am not sure if I should buy a membership or not.
I don't like spending my money, but honestly if Pirates is worth it again.. then I just might.
What do you think about Pirates ?
Do you think it would be worth it to buy a membership ?
Btw. Do they still have 3 month memberships in game cards, or did they get rid of those ?
Considering.. I get a little lag here and there, especially during invasions.. it makes it hard to fight.. I'm not sure if I would be able to fight the lag.
So that is another thing why I'm hesitant on buying a membership.
It doesn't always work, smoothly, for me.
I'm afraid I might get bored too, but I know there will probably be things I can do to keep myself active, lol.
I am asking for your opinions because I don't have much experience with pirates.
I've only bought a membership once actually.. xD
