What will happen to my pirates?

[DarthChaosSky]

I understand where you're getting at. I use Game Cards, so when my subscription runs out, I have to buy another game card. My characters stay there, at the same levels. However, you can't use all of your skills, since you are limited to the first two or so. Also you can't PvP, and if you are above a certain level, you can no longer receive rep. until you get unlimited again. You can't use your ships if they are not lights ships. Your name will change to a gray color. That's pretty much it. Once you renew yer subscription you will get everything back. Oh, and also if you bought clothes and tattoos, you will not be allowed to wear them and yer pirates will revert to their old clothes from when you first started the game. After you renew, everything will return to normal.
