I think there is a lot to be said for open world Karma and Patrol Zone chaos - perhaps the devs could give us a view on whether the new system can be worked so it excludes the PZ itself - will also help player to get there and home afterwards when outside the PZs.

One question - are PZ battles excluded or included in Karma changes? Also if it was excluded then the new system would be more of an RvR choice and PZ remains as is - you don't have to go there if you don't want to

How is it right for Prussia to negotiate the future of SdC if it is a British Port and is using the threat of removal from there clan friends list as part of this process. Every time a major crafting port is taken player numbers decline as the effort to replace the shipyards, logistics, supporting infrastructure is so onerous - 100s of hours to earn the doubloons and reals simply to craft again - made worse because seasoning wood already costs a fortune in both currencies as well. The game has rules about what alts can do for port battles and this is the same. LAMA is controlled by CiD and KRAKE clan and is clearly not British in any way. The normal solution for dealing with traitors is to hang then - an in game equivalent for alts used in this way is necessary as the process of taking ports then running off to another nation which LAMA did with both SdC and Santo Domingo has effectively become an exploit which is game breaking for many players effected by there actions.
