Handicap that I recently play I do play sea of thieves and I keep on running into the toxic players the go out there other players and keep coming after him even though they're not doing any harm why do people not go by the code honor other people that's one of the rules
Going by the pirates code
@disabled41 Being attacked by other players is part of the game.
If that is causing you distress, I suggest playing a different game.@disabled41 It isn't toxic to sink other players and steal their treasure, that's part of the game. Pirates and all that, you know?
@disabled41 SOT isn't a historical Sim game, is a silly pvpve sandbox.
Think of it more like a combination of Rust and Fallguys.
You are encouraged by the game to attack other ships as much as you are to alliance with them, and it is up to decide what kind of pirate you are going to be every time you start up a new session.
Like I said, if you are struggling with the pvp side of this game, and find it to upsetting there are other pve sandbox style games out there that may be more to your liking.@disabled41 said in Going by the pirates code:

This is from the Sea of Thieves - Community of Conduct
REMEBER - Sea of Thieves is a fantasy. It is not a historical depiction of piracy from any real-world place or time period.@disabled41 said in Going by the pirates code:

You may have picked the wrong game, as much as I hate to say it.
Sea of Thieves contains: Krakens, Ghost Ships, Undead Skeletons, the Shroud, and more. It is far from a historical piracy simulator. It would be more accurate to say the game is based on piracy myths and legends than it would be to say it is somehow an accurate depiction of piracy.
PvP and theft are both an expected part of the game. There are even Commendations and Achievements and Titles based around the theft of loot from others. This is part of the whole shared world experience that Rare is aiming for, where you never know the intent of other players you might encounter. If you play enough, you'll find a health mix of pirate types in your adventures.
If that is not the kind of piracy game you are looking for, and you want something more in the vein of realism or lacking PvP I'd probably suggest Port Royale 4. It is a single player game, so no other pesky players coming to take you out. It is based in the Caribbean and leans on the conflict between the England, France, Spain, and the Netherlands within that region during the Era you directly referenced here in the thread.
Suffice it to say, not every game is for every person. There are loads of games I don't enjoy myself, and as a result I don't play them. Even games that have some facets that I might like, it doesn't mean I'll like the game as a whole. And that's fine, and actually even a good thing, because there are so many games out there that cater to all these different tastes. And it allows room for competition, differences in approach, and the ability to flex some creativity on the part of the developers making these games. So, please don't see it as a negative if this game doesn't happen to be for you, rather go an track down the game that is so you can have a blast during your valuable gaming time. Otherwise you can keep on giving it the old college try, and who knows, maybe the game will grow on you and you'll start to really enjoy it.
Either way it ends up going for you, I wish you the best in your gaming endeavors!

you are definitely playing the wrong game matey. Sinking you, killing you, stealing from you, spawncamping you are all acceptable things in Sea of Thieves.

I suggest you read Athena's Fortune then if you want to learn some history of the game, it's only a fiver on Kindle!
"Hold to our course and no surrender
See how she gleams in all her splendor
Fight to the last, we must defend her
As we sail together."
