Just an answer to the very last item in your post:

Collecting the "treasures" is just that. Collecting. As you collected them, you got extra gold from each item. The'value' of the item. It's just a side item to collect them all.

Oh yeah, if you don't want to be bothered with all those friend/crew/guild requests, try picking a quiet server prior to logging in.
If you don't pick a quiet server, you will log in on an "ideal" or even "busy" one.

Ships go slower through shallow waters... As far as aethestics, i'd say this is your videocard.
The rings arent really that distinctive and look like water with graphics turned up well enough.

Absolutely!!! Weve been asking for this for awhile.

The AFK code in the game triggers from the keyboard only. Being a long time mouse player this has been an issue since the very beginning. This is probably part of the reason there is no disconnect for AFK status. If it did, then I would be getting kicked off every 10-15 minutes just for playing with the mouse. SO, if they dont fix the AFK detection code, I DEFINATELY dont want them kicking AFK pirates automatically. I have been playing/leveling for hours before, and had someone walk up and ask how im using my weapons, and being AFK at the same time. Its POTCOS poor activity monitoring code. I can play the entire game with my mouse.

Thank goodness NO! And I dont think it takes up many resources, the glitchers take up far more.. lets eliminate the glitchs if we are worried about server/system resources.

Each new item is worth 25pts EXP, and its gold value. Items refound are worth their gold value. The gold goes in your pocket instantly.. the items stay in your inventory. And thats all they are good for.

Not at all... Everyones entitled to their opinions, and not always are they aware of the issues other players encounter (like my AFK issue).

Yes, because AFK people just exist to be pushed... 3a and b are good if they follow 3z (Z for Zeps), that is, if they do what Zep says. For 1, I'd say that this wouldn't be such an issue with dinghy's being used, so they should expand the area we can head to shore on. 2 makes sense.

AFK players may not be AFK but busy chatting. For many thats about all that is left to do.
