Things were just starting to get good for the Pirates, Britain, France, Sweden, and anyone else sailing around Hispanoila, which is why British players switching to PvP1 pisses me off. There was about to be a lot of action every night, and there still will be, but it won't be as even with British players leaving. Action was coming to Britain's gates and they certainly had enough big ships and players to meet it, but instead... they leave?
