Kingshead Etiquette
Kingshead Etiquette
As most know Kingshead is the popular place to lvl grenades and staff so after a few days of trying to lvl staff I thought it would be useful to all to make a few recommendations on proper etiquette. If lvl grenades: 1. Check to see if someone is already there lvling staff first if so try another server (nowadays more are empty than not) 2. If someone is there lvling grenades ASK to join in first if they say no or if you prefer to go it solo then see above If lvling Staff: 1. Check to see if someone is already there lvling grenades first if so try another server (nowadays more are empty than not) 2. If someone is there lvling staff see if they want to crew up and share the rep or take turns while each waits for voodoo to refill if they say no or if you prefer to go it solo then see above |

You could also take turns with grenades, i got mine to 20 on my test character really fast doing that, it was pretty enjoyable being able to chat with people instead of mindlessly clicking

When I have lvled staff on KH, I have had many rude people. One in particular ran up to me and started yelling "Leave Now!!!!" in caps over and over till he finally left...after about 30 minutes -_-. Others that have no staff, and some who dont have grenades just come and stand in my face and just stare.
When I have lvled grenades I havent had any problems like that. Had one that I told him he could stay and we could take turns. |

Asking to crew up and take turns is always the best option. Bonus for everyone, and you can use each other to TP back from ammo runs. If they won't crew and share, move on. No need to argue about it, plenty of ocean out there.

We were working nades once when a girl came on and started staffing our clusters... was pretty rude. We kept nading, and pulling them away. We'd wait for them to spawn, and be ready to toss one over. She kept rep stealing - came over to the fence, and made a few rude comments. As bad as it sounds, we finally pulled out our level 40's and managed to get her 'sent to jail'. =)
Figured if anything, it would teach her a lesson. |

This is my take.
Crew up !!! That alone will fix a lot of this problem. -First of all, If I have intentions to go solo I would select a known depopulated server. I would not go to Abassa or something crazy like that. -If I get there, be ready to share for what I'd do the same if you came to me. The key is crewing up! and the problem lays on those that are there already or come in and one of those parties refuse to crew up, that's the real problem. Yes, yes, I know,,, you're thinking reps stealing, well, I see the enemies are gonna be defeated at a much faster rate, you get crew bonus, it will all work out a the end. What I'm not doing is server searching until someone "lets" me play, come on, I'm a paying subscriber, I will be considerate and select a slow server to start with the first time but don't expect me to sail to many KH's until I find an empty one. This game is shared by many and while I'm speaking as the devil's advocate I think that the proper etiquette should go like this. You attempt an empty server and sail to KH. -You get there and someone is already leveling up. -You ask nicely to be crewed and not the other way around. (Make sure you leave your old bloody crew) -If they crew you, then great if they decline then prepare to share reps without the bonus or go elsewhere. |

"Started staffing our clusters.." That sounds almost like a dog-in-the-manger approach to sharing... With the utmost respect I will assume that you gave this poor deluded pirate the benefit of your superior wisdom, overwhelmingly kind heart and all around, top rate pirating experience and offered to share the dog-pile? Otherwise you just might be guilty of that other hated denizen of Kings Head. The dreaded King's Head, I Just Got My 'Nades Marching Veterans Level Hog. They can be found all around the Caribbean but mostly reside in Kings Head, living mostly along the fence line. You find them anywhere from Level 20 to 40 but the Level 21-24 KHIJGMNMVLH is usually the most surly and unpredictable. I'm just playing around really. But respect goes both ways I guess... |

 Anyway, you're right of course. Most Pirates I run into on Kings Head know I'm there for a common cause and sharing has WAY more benefits than going it solo... Last edited by ex8404; 08-12-2009 at 12:50 AM.. |

POTC is not really a game for the selfish, you just can't do your own thing, without running into someone who thinks differently from you. I guess each on to their own.
Having heard and seen all sorts of moans from fellow pirates at Kingshead, when in big crews "please no staff, im leveling cutlass.." or "no more nades, im leveling staff!". Fine if were all in agreement, use same weapon such as cutlass or dagger. However there's always some pirate, comes along out of nowhere.. who knows best, and goes watch what I can do with voodoo staff! Its a real shame you can't punch or kick fellow pirates, that would be ace! |
