The Krewe Code:
• All arrr welcome—young, old, male, or female. Just follow our code guidelines.
• Be nice. It’s a game and there arrr kids present.
• No foul language or flaming.
• Help other guild members when asked (if you can).
• Help other non-guild players when you can (ask first).
• Share your experience.
• Communicate—use the chat function.
• If you arrr getting frustrated/upset/angry/sad on the inside, it’s time to take a break. Go outside and throw a ball. Or take a walk. Ride a bike. Just get away from the computer for a while.
General Gameplay Tips for New Players:
• Don’t run around just hacking and slashing. Ask if it’s okay to join in a fight before you jump in.
• Likewise, don’t just go around healing strangers willy-nilly. Ask if the other player needs help.
• When you arrr a crew member aboard another player’s ship, don’t take the helm unless asked, even if it’s vacant.
• Don’t jump onto another player’s ship uninvited. Ask first, then wait for permission.
• Don’t teleport another player unless asked or permission is given.
• Don’t shoot other players’ ships unless in a crew battle. It’s just annoying.
• When on board another player’s ship, don’t just shoot at everything that moves. Follow the Cap’n’s directions.
General Gameplay Tips for more experienced players:
• New doesn’t mean bad. It just means new. Help the new guys learn the ropes, don’t just throw them under the bus.
• The game is rated E for Everyone. That means there will be immature people online playing at the same time you arrr.
• It’s a GAME, for Pete’s sake! Let the new guys learn. Don’t forget what it was like for you when you were new and learning the ropes.
• Your “personal rules” arrr not official game rules. The new players don’t know your rules nor do they know what you will do to them if they break your rules. Take it easy.
• A kid can learn one of two things when he/she does something “wrong:”
o He can learn to do it right, thanks to positive support, encouragement, and by seeing it done correctly, or
o He can learn to quit. Which do you really want?
