A quick fix for skull fort farming would be to lock the sever to new entrants once the skull is in the sky.
This ensures only current residents of the server get a chance and also might discourage server hoping.

I don't think it's a problem, minus messing up the servers a bit. People will soon realize that Fort farming is a poor way to level up - sometimes it takes 10 minutes to even find an active server, and then more than less times, it's contested, which usually takes up to an hour or more if the other crew is persistent enough. Even with the update, I don't think it's worth it.
My thinking is this. I don’t sever hop and adventuring in a server for a few hours you often see the same ships and crews and ge to know their behaviours. it would be nice if the population of ‘your’ server where the ones to get a crack at the skull.
It might lead to things like ‘Hey there is that Galleon who sailed past waving half an hour ago maybe they want to join up’ rather than ‘oh here’s a newly spawned crew come to blast me out of the water and leave the server as fast as they came’
