Sometimes when I almost won a battle, a sore loser scuttles their ship. This makes the whole game pretty pointless. Kids will always cry about something about games. Some game companies adhere to their demands and ruin their games, such as those wanting this game to be only PvE. This game is perfect how it is. Many are not cut out for pirate life. They want to pirate but cant handle being pirated. Remove the scuttle option so we are not robbed of our victories by the weak hearted, which are so many these days. And make it so if someone logs out, we can finish looting their ship. This way if ship gets stuck or something, they can still log back in for a new ship. If this is not done, the entire game is worthless if you think about it.
Sore Loser Ship Scuttlers
@arcinfusion scuttling is admitting defeat. That is why it's there, if you feel you can not win and want to give up.

I only scuttle when I have nothing anyway, saves you time, saves me time.
If someone does scuttle then you can still get their treasure.

Kinda sounds like you want to spawn camp people until they rage quit. Either that or this post is just a flex. Regardless, does not reflect well on you.

Question: What exactly do you stand to gain from others not being able to scuttle ship?
If the answer is to be able to cause others distress by constantly spawn killing them until they quit the session or anything similar you are going to be sorely disappointed with the responses you receive from others here.
I have been pvping everyday since steam release and not a single group has scuttled on me. Even if they did, I don't see what the problem is? It's just like in any other PvP game pressing surrender because they think their going to lose. As far as i'm aware it doesn't delete their treasure? So i'm having difficulty understanding the problem here...
Well if i cant win a battle, i will make sure the attackers will get as little as possible. There is no point in letting the attackers get all your supplies. If possible i try to sail around and drain them of as much cannonballs as possible. If they manage to board me and the battle is hopeless, i scuttle fast so that they cant get my supplies.
The point is if i cant win, i will not give up. As i see it, trying to deny the attackers any loot is at least half a win, and make sure they only get a pyrrhic victory.
Also the OP needs to remember, that the loot does not belong to him. Its everyones right to do as they wish with the loot they are currently carrying. If you cant catch a ship and it sails off into the red sea with the loot, YOU LOST. It a ship manages to sail to an outpost and lower their flag, YOU LOST the race. Be sneakier, be more tactical, dont blame others if they do everything they can to deny you your victory.
