It's called "having a taste of one's own medicine".
Soon enough this will develop into a full-scale proxy war

It's not as if said tools weren't available to all, actually.
Anyway, I never understood why wrecking a ship above its waterline would make it sink.

Let it be known the Dutch are merciful, we at least let the bot live.

This, gentlemen, should be displayed in every port to prevent first-timers from setting buy orders at stupidly high prices for astronomical quantities, thus wasting everyone else's time.
national news?
It belongs in every. single. damn. section of the forum

Lots of things
I read the rest in diagonal since the opening sentence "South-Eastern was neutral, then it became dutch, then french tried to conquer them" was a sheer joke to anyone who's been playing the game from January. Bothering to correct it with someone so keen on drawing the victim card would be an exercise in futility.
Anyhow, the point being that we're now at Pampatar just because of our own pride, I'm sure most of us can live with that as a compliment. But I'm afraid that if you're victim of anything, that would be your own preconceived ideas about pride and the "Grande Nation", as your kind likes to ironically label us all the time.
Times were good when we fought against DAS and pals around the Isla Margarita. Back then, there were more cannonballs and less excuses. Now all we are submitted to at the end of a battle, is an hourlong tantrum about how we've ruined the entire game by refusing to let our buttocks be painted orange? Surely the Dutch faction deserves better than this, and I wouldn't be surprised that many deserted it not because of our stubbornness, but the poor manners of its own leadership and representation.
Do we need to reroll Dutch and come fix it? Please let us know.

My. That's refreshingly new. And where does *that* come from, anyway?
I'm eagerly awaiting being branded a cannibalistic paedophile, while we're at it.

Clever...

And this is the post of said dutch captain you answered to.
I don´t see where this is only about the southern ports. It is about you being the defender.
Let me requote him again, then:
We were the attacker
Is Praefect a Swede, now? Have I missed something?
This can go on all day, you know.

Wow, pretty much arrogant comments I have to say.
The spaniards actually said they would help you, cos otherwise the poor and outnumbered french wouldn´t have a chance otherwise.
When Dutch & Swedes stood in front of ur Capital, u guys blamed Danes for not helping you and you guys warned us, french community would go pirate but would never accept a peace where u would loose one single port to the dutch, cos that would be an "insult to ur community".
So while the server knows that US, Brits and Dutch have actually a rly hard time in terms of activity, u guys blame them for being bad friends/allies?
At same time u go with the most active communities and don´t give a shit for the server balance and health. GJ
Oh. We're the new Brits now?

The ten ports we swedes took at one day all had timers set by you guys, but we couldn´t set timers after we took them (we even asked the devs to help setting the timers but they didn´t care about it). You guys did retake a few of this ports in the middle of the night, when they had no timers because of that bug.
End of story?
I answered to a Dutch captain, referring to the southern ports retaken from the Dutch during patch day.

1. Timer bug helped the defender to retake ports. We were the attacker, not the defender.
2. I personally saw like 2 british guys in eastern front. How many spaniards are around at same time? Answer is, up to 10 times that much.
1. No. That was my flag and my timer that I couldn't set on Guayaguayare, leaving the capture window to "anytime". This and the handful of other ports that we captured on this particular wednesday. End of story.
2. You have ten times less friends, my friend.

History is always written by the winner, isn't it?
lol no
In fact, the very first works of military history were written by someone from the losing side. Another myth debunked.

Fire the canonical cannons!

Meanwhile we got to appreciate Pellas' reaction after taking a bath :

The funny joke about french flag. Yeah yeah.
But its unfair.
Holland is known for nothing, so how can we joke in return? Tulipes?
Jokes that fall as flat as the Low Countries

I believe the French now know what it feels like to be a US player.
Nah, we've been here before. You call it a meltdown, we call it Friday.

Apparently, some english guys on this topic enjoy most that war than the swedish and the french.
Like "pours oil on the fire".
I wouldn't blame the brits, I enjoyed it most when it was their turn.

Virtual globes already exist as a naval sim platform, think 'command modern air/naval operations'. Hardly a MMO, though.
For me, I don't see what kind of depth it would add, except twisting the heading for very long travels. An anecdotal improvement, not worth the time for the devs.

Statistically, Sweden beats us all.

Porpoise likes to eat frogs. What about some cuddling with our French neighbours? Painting the rest of south American coast orange will make Porpoise happy.
Each one his own. I prefer British pork.
Slow roast, in a salt crust.

And won't 'General Discussions' become the new 'National News' instead?

Having seen my ship be the last to sink in this battle, I can now strike a theatrical pose, laugh maniacally and vanish in a cloud of smoke.

A one-port end? The leg to the north might be a bit tight on the clock, but quite a feat if you guys manage it.
It even might incite the devs to implement achievements per faction, who knows...

The Pirates guide for behaving in Open World

A trader's appropriate response would be:
Dear pirates,
If you see me, despair. You'll have very little chance to catch me because I'll defensive-tag the sh*t out of you and go make myself a coffee and a sandwich in the battle screen while you'll hang yourself out of boredom. Yes, I'm that good with annoying people.
