I'm going to get a ship soon. I'll get a sloop instead of a cutter so I don't have to spend all my dubloons.

Then I can get paint and furniture and treasure maps!

Woo!

By the way, Hollsie, I've joined a new crew now - it was the crew I was originally on before something weird happend and I wound up in Academy of Sailing. I'm an officer in this new crew (Seven Seas Pirates). So I can invite you to join this crew if you want.

Re. Puzzle Pirates: I'm really tempted to play with a male avatar, just to see if people treat me differently. I had this exchange today with some guy who'd been a swabbie on the ship I was sailing:

Guy: hiya hon
Me: My name isn't "hon" it's Petunia and that's Officer Petunia to you, bub!
[which I thought was a pretty inoffensive, light-hearted way of saying it]
Guy: watch the attitude I can get really nasty at times
[I was having an actual conversation with a fleet officer on my crew so I didn't respond immediately]
Guy: 2 scared 2 reply?
Me: Oh please don't hurt me, cartoon pirate!
Guy: are you being nice or mean?
Me: Try to figure it out while I put you on my ignore list.
Guy: ok sorry

And after that he was polite. Weird. I guess you just have to smack them around a little. But really, what kind of leverage do they think they have to intimidate me? The worst they can do is talk at me and then I can mute them if I want.

I'm going to play as a male and see what happens. Maybe it's like the opposite of WoW and people give male avatars free gold and swords and stuff.
