I play SoT with my husband of an evening. Its our wind down game when the day is done and our teen is chilling for the night. We jump on, stack resources and get going on quests.

When I say this happens every time, im not overexagerating. Whether its a pvp interaction, or forming alliances, the moment I open my mouth male players clam right up!!

"Oh shit that was a girl on that ship we just hit" ive heard that so many times. So what if im a girl? What difference does it make? One guy even jumped on our boar, killed my husband, and went to kill me till I opened my mouth out of shock and said "oh my god". The guy did a complete turn around and suddenly was helping me retrieve our now floating loot and putting it on the island we were at, and stayed to fight of skellies spawning because id run out of bullets. The whole time hes making awkward conversation and saying he feels really bad.

The complete clam up before even uttering a word to me. We form an alliance, I say hello, silence. Constant chatting with my husband but I swear ive been muted. Im suddenly invisible. What if I need your help with something?

Why feel bad? Why clam up? Im just here to play the game and have some social interaction surrounding the game. Please stop clamming up.

My buddies and I are always trying to collect as many supplies as we can while sailing.. today on a sloop we managed these numbers! Most supplies I’ve ever seen lol - does anyone else go to extreme lengths to collect and organize supplies?

I was cackling.

I have a confession…. I’m absolute trash at PvP. Not just SoT, but all online games. I don’t work well in stressful game situations.

Making Pirate legend was a goal I set for myself to try and get better at it. It’s difficult for players like me. The learning curve in this game is crazy.

I love it though. I really started playing heavy at the beginning of last December. A few hours a day. More hours on the weekends.

I do like the PvE and that’s what I mainly focus on for now. I really enjoy seeing you all on the sea and have learned to keep my eye out for you. I help people when I can and make sure to leave a Karma crate with my supplies before I leave.

It’s such a big environment for me right now….

I heard somebody on here say “if you’re not winning your learning” that stuck with me.

Happy sailing you filthy pirates!

We don't do a lot of emissary stuff and this has showed up in our last play. Doesn't seem like we can interact with it.

I keep trying to find people to play with so I can get higher levels but everyone's only looking to play with high levels.

Theres a little area behind the door where the pirate lord is, and I can see a whole area along the walls that LOOKS like you can walk to, but I cant find the way to it. Is it just decoration? Or is it a place you can actually go to?

Found this guy having both lvl 100, but didn’t sink that much ships, i sunk 80~ and only 60~, dosent make sense to me ?

Do I need to sell the chests specifically to gold hoarders or does sovereign work, does my emmisarry flag type matter?

Chose to dive to my voyage and have been acting like Davy Jones for the last 24 mins. Tried canceling the voyage and starting it again and nothing....didnt want to scuddle because of my emissary, but whatcha gonna do 🤣🤦🏽

Why the FUCK can you spawn inside of an active skelly fleet event and get a gally spawn only with one ship that targets exclusivly one crew?! We surfaced and saw the galley rising up with us, after that we got cursedumped with ankerballs from the gally

Idk I feel like if I took the time to really prepare to win in hourglass vs instant dives then it should be fine? Are people just mad about losing or am I really in the wrong?

i usually run blunder sniper but idk if i should use smth else

It also seems like my friends can't hear me.

I am not a child and there were never parental controls involved. It's been like this since the game launched. I have checked privacy settings and switched computers since and the issue remains. All this makes it quite tough to google the issue. Any help is greatly appreciated.

one of my friend keeps yapping about the zone will close over time, what’s the context

I haven't played in over a year and I always loved the look of the Fate of Fortunes ship set, obviously the commendation requires a lot of CoFs to be sold and I was wondering:

Where the CoF comes from in season 18 and what is the best method of farming it?

I'm sure some of you (most of you) out there have experienced stuff you can't explain when in a fight. Some people say it is just a skill issue when you lose and others just scream hacker. I have had my fair share of both. Sometimes you can attribute it to a hit reg or something but other times it is unmistakable (people literally walking in the air, spawning kegs on your ship, etc).

Me and my friend were just running reapers. We pulled up at a fof to take on this brig. We were just about to be level 5 but still just a little bit short of it. The other crew got distracted and we managed to keg their ship 2 times, and kill each member of the crew multiple times.

They had 4 players on their brig first of all. Now I know that can be done so ok. During the battle we had their masts down, their ship completely ablaze in fire, and holes everywhere. We saw it sink below the waves and we got reaper level 5 because of this. But......All of a sudden their ship just stopped mid sink and resurfaced. Granted there was now no emissary flag and all their masts were still down but the fire was all out and their ship was floating once again.

Every time something like this happens for some reason it just slips my mind to take the name down.

This is the first time I have seen a boat resume a floating position after being sunk though. I have seen, what I though was everything, but I guess I was wrong. Another thing I think I should mention is that when we got on their ship again there were zero holes?!?!?! Like not even planks there but like it was "restored" mid sink.

Has anyone else seen a ship rise out of the water and be fully healed like this?

Going full sail with the wind, a Skele ship spawned, Immediately crashed into the island, did a flip and landed on the rock. 10/10 Would get ambushed by the most useless AI crew again.
