Alright swabs, this 'ere be th'
rules o' th' ship. Live by 'em or die by 'em, whichever suits ye best.

First an' foremost Rule:

• Loyalty an' respect. Never disrespect an older pirate. When ye first sign up with th' ship, yer absolutely nothin' t' th' guild. If'n an older pirate tells ye to do somethin' or not t' do somethin', then ye best do what they say, or be ready t' die fer it. If'n a pirate needs yer help, help 'em. One thing that makes th' pirates one o' th' strongest guilds around be th' unity an' loyalty.

Pirates to be listened to:

Deadman.*Bein' da First Mate an all*
Zeke.
Yoke.*When he gets back*
Bubba.*When he gets back*
Gambit.
Binsk.*Bein' da Cap'n an' all*
Pilo.
Ogg.
Grunk.*Cause me can put me name anywhere me wants!

Second Rule:

• Th' guild is your first loyalty, no matter what. No other organization or self-proclaimed group made by players takes precedence over th' guild. Ye take anythin' over th' guild, plan on dyin' fer it.

Third Rule:

• Th' pirates have a very long standing alliance with th' shadowthieves. Do not steal from them an' don't attack them without approval from an older pirate. Doin' so will result in yer death an' possibly retirement. If'n a shadowthief needs help, we help 'em, an' they help us if'n we need their help.

Fourth Rule:

• This one's quite simple.... NO stupid names. Th' pirate guild at least tries t' follow some form o' roleplayin'. Names like

  "Cutie", "Secretwind", "Silent", "Puppyeyes", "Penispump", "Urbangecko", "Robobear", "Deathgate", "Newgod", "Shadowmist", etc. etc.

  j'st won't cut it in th' guild. If'n ye gots a stupid name, j'st don't join. If'n ye think yer name is alright, an' one o' th' older pirates tell ye that it j'st won't cut it, then retire an' come up with a new name. If'n ye don't, ye'll j'st be retired after ye hit level 25. Below is a link to a great random name generator for those of ye without the slightest bit o' creativity.

Fifth Rule:

• If'n ye ain't proven yerself as worthy o' th' guild, don't let yer mouth write a check yer ass can't cover. Ye start backtalkin', yer gonna start takin' a dirt-nap.

Sixth Rule:

• Don't show pirate wanna-be's the way t' th' guild. If'n they can't find their way t' th' ship, we don't want 'em.

Seventh Rule:

• Pirates are ruthless bastards, plain and simple. They rape, loot and pillage, they also harrass new people.... deal with it.

Bubba's Personal Rule:

• "Do not use any of those goddamn lazy abbreviations for short words (u,r,c,ne1,etc.) when you talk to me, or I reserve the right to kill you."

--The above is a direct quote from Bubba's plan on his finger info.

--For ye pirates, this also goes for th' guild channel... if'n ye use th' stupid ass abbreviations, don't be surprised if'n Bubba or some other pirate wacks ye.

Cao's Personal Rule:

• If'n a pirate don't know where t' get Iapage Travel Scrolls, don't show 'em. Iapage be th' home o' th' pirates, if'n they dont know their own home, they need t' learn it. Th' scrolls aren't in an' obvious place, but they still ain't that hard t' find if'n ye j'st take some time t' explore th' town.

((Not one that _has_ to be followed))
