Treasure sense and other people shooting your targets

I've actually had high level player ships chase me all over for no good reason firing on me. They think it's funny to pick on me.

But as far as me firing on other ships that players are targeting, like I said, I view it as helping them. Just like when someone's attacking someone on land I'll run up with my voodoo doll and do what I can to help them. Cause I like it when people do that for me, so why shouldn't I do it for others?

I agree Jami that sometimes it is someone trying to help out and I don't mind that, but when they are shadowing you, in their light sloop to get a shot at the big ship you can bring down and they can't ( I sail a War Galleon) and getting between you and your target making it hard for you to get a shot in is just rude I usually change servers when there are shadowers following me around.

I too try to help a low level on land, and sometimes at sea, I like healing them and allowing them to defeat the higher targets to level up, but not all appreciate it :0, so if they fire on me or swing a sword at me I back off and let them fend for themselves.
