I'm currently in a guild but hardly see anyone on (one of them is having some computer issues but I'm not sure where the rest are). The one member that was on regularly thought my title was "entertainment director" and looked to me to find adventures, go sailing, find someone else who needed help.

The other problem is I have far outpaced the rest of my guildmates- I am up to level 31 and the next highest is 19. I am waiting for the boss battle at this point so I am working on building up money for a better ship and leveling weapons. But the problem is that I am either spending most of my time keeping them out of jail (at my level) or collecting 1-2 points on gray enemies (their level).

I know a few of my guildmates IRL and have worked with them but the loyalty to the guild seems unfounded or at least unfair since their situation isn't allowing them to play.

I am looking to group up with people and go plunder or help level weapons or even just chat from time to time. I have no problem helping players out with info or tips or even taking on bigger enemies with them. But I have had a few people lately whisper for help only to find when I get there they are going to Fort Charles to work on a side quest or need to sink 2 navy ships which turns into 2 navy, 2 eitc which then turns into 3 of each (like I'm not paying attention to what they are saying) and then disappear when they are done without so much as a thank you.

Sailing I prefer for the captain to call out the target (or start shooting broadsides at it). If I am sailing I'd rather not have people picking fights for my ship (especially if it's damaged or full).

There seems to be 2 groups of adult players but I'm not sure which one matches up with my playing times or style the best (I was using the afternoon time for questing and the night one for guild work back when there were 3 or 4 others on). I know of at least one other player in a similar situation in her guild.

My stats are:
Francis Wavecutter
Lvl 31, Sail 19, Cannon 12 (would love to sail on someone's crew and up that), Cutlass 17, Pistol 19 (almost 20), Dagger 17, Grenade 9 (not my favorite weapon), Doll 18, and Staff 12

I have a War Sloop and am trying to save up enough for a War Galleon (about 1/2 way there if I sell the Sloop).

I'll stop now.

You sound exactly like a lot of my guild members. You would fit in perfect. Join our site at tortuganterror.guildlaunch.com and I'll get you a guild code as soon as possible. Thanks, and see you in the game! Enjoy the guild.
