I can honestly say i didnt notice it but if i hear it then i address it... When someone from spania signs in,, we should greet and speak... as we can,, i understand pirating is a busy undertaking. but if we see a new member, please take the time to get to know them.. or our members will vanish like our lives when fighting a red ghost. Please lets be a guild of quality not quantity

It is something that has not gone unnoticed. We have had many recent additions to the guild, and it's best to slow down and help to get them comfortable and on the same page, as well as to get to know them. As a result, we are currently putting recruiting on hold. This has been a very busy week for me and I haven't able to be on 24/7 like usual, and therefore have probably missed many opportunities to meet newer guild members. I am hoping to be able to turn that around this week or next. However, everyone should be greeting others, and making sure no one goes ignored. To anyone new, I look forward to meeting you all soon!

I have found most everyone to be nice a helpful and just being "THERE" . I am personally amazed at the time and effort that most of you put in on the leadership of this guild. I have come in very early before work to see Treasurer and Davy on taking care of things. You are an inspiration to everyone and if I can just say one thing I wish every guild member could take to heart. These are real people behind these avatars maybe you can all treat each with the same type of respect and kindness you would Treasurer and any other Officer you never know who that pirate is you are speaking with.

You are so right Joan,
I myself have come across some rude mannered pirates and i must say i have come across it once in the SPANIA guild.
We are real people and as in real life words and actions do hurt us ,even though we are behind an avator.
So yes everyone should be treated with respect , everyone is here to enjoy this game and to get away from real lfe for a while, it should be a fun experience

Joan I agree with you and I also feel that we as individual players whom make up this guild don't always do things the same way as others. So if someone sinks ships differently than you do, or fights differently than you; respect their method ya might just learn something new. If you think you are getting over your head before fighting certain enemies call for help first this is respectful to players who will gladly help you; in other words don't wait till you die and yell for help.
