Walk the plank?
When sailing a ship open to the public, occasionally a pirate might come aboard and be kinda disruptive, not follow orders to hold fire, and be impolite to the Captain and the rest of the crew. Is there anyway to remove said pirate from the ship?

Only if your in Svs and they are in your crew, other than that there is not way.

SvS is Ship versus Ship, also known as Privateering.

This is only when you have your ship open to public, where everyone can get on it. I bet 80% of pirates just want to come on your ship to try to takeover, not to just follow your orders. I believe with the new update you can kick people from your ship, its happened to me when I come on, but I'm not sure how it was done...

If you allowed the public to get to your ship it's your fault. If they did allow us to do this I'm sure they'd have a bug where anyone could kick anyone off a ship instead of just the ships owner kicking people off. |

Well one way or another, the owner of a ship, should be able to kick any pirate off of it (ie walk the plank) that he wishs. It may be abused, but is better solution than just letting pirates board and abuse another persons ship even if it is "public". If they want to promote this approach which it certainly appears they do... you dont want to have any "Well you let them on, its your fault.. tough" sort of attitude or they'd be basically shooting themselves in the foot as they say.

Public isn't only to let the riff-raff on.
Opening a ship to public for just a moment to let a friend-of-a-friend get onboard, you can get undesirables. In a pick-up setting like SvS, where you need more crew but they won't join your crew until they see the ship you launch, public makes sense. But that's where it's the most trouble, only because they aren't added to crew (and can even decline!) The only logical approach is that people getting on your boat, are automatically removed from any crew they are in and added to your crew. They leave your ship and launch their own? They should no longer be in your crew. Just going on shore leave is reasonable, but only if they return to your ship. If they aren't back in 15 minutes or so, send the navy guards after the scoundrels! Edit: By the way, pirates on your FRIENDS list on occasion, can be just as bad as public. Guild lists have been known to have occasional problem pirates too. Both also are able to actually decline crew invitation, despite being on my ship. Arrrgh. I say the conscription gang ties them up, yaaaar! At the very least, someone declining a crew invitation from a ship's crew-captain should just be removed from the ship.

Disney has chosen for some crazy reason disrupting behavior in all aspects of the game and what they work towards, instead of things like content.
Best to completely stay away from open. If you want to do open and make friends, I would immediately anchor at nearest shore. Ask all others openly if they would like to join your crew but the trouble maker. That will maybe get the message across to those types, since they aren't going back out with the crew you made. Of corse turn off open at this point. I always have been for its your ship, you should have control what happens, instead of other way around. |

Being able to boot from ones ship would certainly be handy. And certainly if you are the captain of your own ship! Those causing disruption to your game play aboard your ship deserve to walk the plank and not just during SvS.
Long live the boot! |

Arr, and a big boot be needed.
During Edward's contest Saturday, I opened my ship up to public to let a friend on that I didn't have in crew or on Friend's list. This lv5 pops on board along with the friend. Someone mentions it to me and I send the pirate a crew invite. He accepts. Isn't causing any harm with a lv2-4 cannon, so I didn't think much about it other than to shut off the open invite. Pretty soon he realises that we're not plundering and leaves the ship. No harm, no foul. So, sometimes ya get lucky with open invite and sometimes not. But either way, you should be able to boot'em if'n ye want to. |

I'd love a walk the plank option. It could simply boot that Pirate from the crew and transport them to Port Royal or Tortuga on another server. If they don't recall what server they were on, your chances of bumping back into them are slimmed down. I truly hate having to report someone unless absolutely necessary....and only had to do it on one occasion (extreme profanity and threats towards crew). Walk the plank would be a great addition to the game.

This is why whenever I board in the public feature, I always find the Captain and ask where they want me, or if they mind if I am there. This should be a part of the "Code".
Just my thoughts |
