Pirate fix or changes suggestion

[Talbaron]

My suggestion is to turn all pirates into say Portugees, or Australians,

Portugees is prob the better option. they will then have same privileges as other Nation no advantages.

1.introduce new pirate mode. Hard core Perma death or may be 2 or 3 lives.

2. Pirates cannot join clans. this does not stop groups getting together on say teamspeak.

3. No Port battles . but they can raid ports they would have to attack but obviously give defenders time to respond.( good upgrade drops for them ect), would think same as flag cost is relatively high to slow down spamming

4. Pirates can access any port to trade . but give them a island and some safe ports around the map. 

5.Pirates can capture ships Traders and steal the goods. Not necessarily keep the ship, but could sink it if ransom was not paid. 

6. Pirates get a bounty on their heads, put there buy there victims. this would then encourage bounty hunters chasing them down the vagabonds . bounties mount up as as a kitty from all who place them, untill the pirate is captured and hung or made to walk the plank( could be mechanism for perma death or set number of lives. The higher the Bounty the more famous they become. Have a leader board where there names are up in lights Dead or alive , this could be reset every say 3 years!

7. As pirates are hard core possibly a pirate to pirate friendly PVP mode that does not kill them permanently.( allows some training)

8. Any Pirate attack leaves the timer open for all to help the hapless victim. but not other Pirates say after 1 or 2 min the window closes for them.

i'm sure you get the idea. others will possibly add to this or suggest better thoughts. 

Thanks for a fantastic game. you are all doing a fantastic job, Keep it up.
