Do you have a Personal Pirate Code?

[ex8404]

I have a code...

1. I will NEVER shoot into a ship you are already shooting, attack an enemy you are already attacking or, in any way, stop you from getting what you need.
2. I will sail my boat on public but when you shoot a Death Omen while we are "in the red" and I have asked for a Cease Fire, I will close the boat until you get bored and go away.
3. I will always port as soon as the hold is full. I have all the gold I need but you might not so take as much as you can and give nothing back.
4. If you need a heal, I will heal. If you need a revive, I will drop a tonic on you. Thank-yous earn you a second one.
5. I don't respond well to "Come to me!" or "Take me to Port Royal" or any rudeness really.
6. If you are too low a level to be in Tormenta, don't expect me to baby-sit, OK? Go back to Fort Charles and level up.
7. I intend to have as much fun as possible in a short amount of time. If that includes you...Great. If you're a professional Buzz-Kill, take a deep breath and a walk in the park. It will do you some good.
8. I will remain loyal to my guild even though they have all gone away and I am often the only one on line...
9. Never take the wheel of my ship without asking and I will extend the same courtesy to you.
10. I like noobs (I use noob as a term of endearment) and baby pirates and will help at the drop of a hat. Just ask.

Anyway, that's a start... Sounds kind of negative at first but if you read between the lines, you will see that my pirate code is "Do unto other pirates as you would have them do unto you."

Nice list!

We are in agreement on most things but your #3, so I went back and noticed I said I won't immediately port once my cargo holds are full, I guess I should have clarified it to say that I won't be demanded to port right away once the holds are full. I have taken baby pirates out on plunder runs and ported as soon as we were full, I guess I should have made it clear that on my boat, you don't tell me what to do.

Keep to your code and have fun!
