PVE: Other players sinking your ship via the crewlimit

[Nacona 111]

you could take a bucket while you are waiting for green anchor and get the incoming water out of your gunports. Well that is no fun and you have to be online for the 20 minutes. You can also take your robe ladders up so nobody can climb up your ships. In freeport you can't use the grapling hook. If you park on a normal island PvP or PvE you should be sure there is no ramp next to your ship. Others could jump with tames like tigers, lions, horse or crap.

 

For freeport: Devs could just add green anchor instantly. There is no fight allowed and no other reward from green anchor(no crew repair). Green anchor = disabled overweight and crew limit.

Well this will not solve the issue that other players can still get on your ship and you can't do anything against it...(in freeport or PvE)

 

praise the griefers for their toxity. Online play = no rules and no conduct. :(

Anchor your ship away from other ships.  Make sure ladder is up.  ALWAYS make sure your ladder is up.  Sit at wheel while friend goes to pick up whatever it is you are there for. 

At this point the only way someone can overweight the ship is to walk off another ship on yours.  If they do just look at the wheel options and kick them off.  If they plan on overcrewing the fix is the same.  Kick them off from wheel options.   After 15 minutes your anchor turns green and you are protected.  Before you raise the anchor always try kicking off unwanted pests via the options wheel.  if someone(s) is there you'll be able to remove them easily from the ship.   And again.....ALWAYS raise your ladder.  That should be done every time you get on the wheel.

Yes they need to find a way to fix these issues, but you do have a way to prevent it as well.
