Brig

@Legend-Satoshi Ahoy!

As @The-Lupino has said it would be too easily abused. It sounds good on paper but in reality a crew could vote a random to the brig right before turn in and replace them with their friend, essentially robbing the player of all their hard work. I'm all for robbing other crews of their loot but not our own crew turning against us.

I understand the frustration of having to deal with players that are trolling, going AFK to just collect loot for free, or being hostile toward the crew (verbally) but the dangers of "kicking an innocent player" outweigh the benefits of "kicking a hostile player."

I'd suggest using Discord, the Xbox looking for group feature, or the forums to find a reliable crew to sail with. Some times you get lucky with a random crew and sometimes you don't. It's more enjoyable to sail with people you can trust :)

@je0rgie-p0rgie Great reply, instead of the usual “No” comments you put a point out there and actually explained why it would be a bad idea.

Wish more people commented like you do mate. Forums turning so toxic and petty it’s great to actually see these types of comments. Even if you do have to write them multiple times. :)

O.T: I personally feel the cons outway the pros of a kick feature, i believe it would cause a lot of problems for people who may have had 3 members leave there Galleon for example to have a 3 stack join and decide to kick them and take all the loot for the “Laughs”

@knifelife Thanks Knife I appreciate it! I think taking the time to explain things, especially to those who may not have been around as long as some of us, helps spread the knowledge we need to help improve our community. I'm not saying I'm always correct by any means because I'm absolutely not but I try to remain as informed as possible and pass along information when I can.

And in response to your post this is exactly what I think we need to avoid. Ironically last night my crew and I had a random join that was kind of talking down to everyone (even though he admitted to only having 3 days of game time under his belt) and then when we decided against turning in he climbed up to the crows nest and detonated our Stronghold Keg. We immediately brigged him (which he was proud of) and he spent the next two hours on the ferry, after he died in the brig from drowning, trying to recruit other ships to come and sink us.

We ended up giving the skull fort and voyage loot away to a sloop at an outpost so he wouldn't get any cash or rep reward. The sloop player was able to invite our non pirate legend friend to his ship so our friend could still get the rep and coin. In the end everyone won except for the one we brigged, and we made a new friend (the sloop guy).

I would have loved the opportunity to remove him from our session and find a random who wanted to be apart of our crew. However, as we've already discussed, the disadvantages outweigh the advantages and it's just not worth the risk of ruining an innocent player's experience.
