- If somebody is on a tall tale do not sink them unless they have loot on board besides tale items
- If somebody is solo and there is other prosperity around do not sink them unless they have loot on board
- Sink somebody if they disrupt you in your ventures or are following you pre-combat
- Sink somebody if they are doing a world event
- Only attempt to reason with breakers of this guideline if they are
-Not reapers
-Not being toxic in VC or text chat
-Seem like newer players who can be reasoned with
-Are below your level - Sink people who are toxic to others or break any of the aforementioned guidelines
This is my opinion you are justified in your own but one common thing I hope we can agree on is sinking people on a tall tale is not a rational person move.
