Had an overall rough day today. While helping an lfg group with an athenas today were were sunk 5 times the same ship and they literally took all our loot any time we got some. I felt defeated totally. I ended up on a brig this evening with a player named itzmerome and I would consider him an ambassador of the community. He talked about helping new players and alliancing just to help people out. He helped my group do a skull fort and single handedly sunk 3 ships that were hostile. Hes a legend in my book and a reminder that good pirates do exist.
