I love the Six Feet Under graveyard classics albums for this same reason

Plain and simple if your going away for a few weeks or even a week try and find a friend or ally company to help with your claims. The whole point of the game is piracy there has to be a reward system for playing. You want to build a huge base without a risk of losing it then play on private. You want to lower the risk build a galleon or two to hold all of your mats. This isn’t an extreme move by the devs as they stated sleeping people were never supposed to contest claims in the first place. I’m in a small 3 person company and I know there’s a risk when I go on holidays especially since my wife is my most active member but this encourages us to sail around the map looking for new lands.

I haven't had much of a chance to experiment with them but for NPC Crew: are you able to get them to bail out the water on a damaged ship if you put a bucket in their inventory? Will they only repair the ship when anchored or can you have 1-2 with repair hammers just on the ready to repair as you sail around? when using auto pilot (npc crew on steering) will they avoid islands or at least slow down or stop when they get to one? There isn't much info on them at least from what I could find but it's possible I'm just looking in the wrong spot.

yeah but what does it accomplish? you still can't fight.

Hey, I know a lot of people who would like to play on the PVP server but without being in a large company the potential for losing everything constantly pushes us to the PVE servers. I think it would be a great idea to have a mixed server so you get the best of both worlds. My idea is to have it so Lawless servers are just that Lawless - PVP heavy and considering the islands are heavy in resources they would be worth fighting over. the other aspect is allowing Company war to enable alliance PVP between them. This way if a company steals your land or you want theirs you can declare war and fight for it. there is obviously some speculations like the other company has a specific timeframe to accept/refuse war or it's automatic if they dispute their claims for a set timeframe. this allows the Bounty system to be used as well.
