I just want to explore the world and trade without the threat of being attacked by another player :/ I've never been outside of Europe because of this.
I hope with this handover there will be a no-PvP server available, or a way to permanently opt out of PvP (to avoid it being abused by player pirates).

I just want to play a game where I can run around on grass....but the fact there is 21 other people on the grass is spoiling it for me.
Why can’t they just change fifa 18 for me....why oh whyyyyyyy?
What an absolutely useless and rude post. Grow up!.
You need to grow up and accept that you might get pirated. There is a way. Invest money and buy blue flags. They're there for a reason.
Piracy is part of this game you might as well accept it.

make another character and start to pirate other players!
So I don’t see how that will change things.
All it will mean is all pirates are really really high level and at a quality lvl and then everyone would be just as annoyed.
It’s papaya’s choice. Let’s see what happens.

Your post is so off that it is not worth making any more comments.

I am not sure what you mean. I have made several posts supporting the idea of having a toggle for allowing PvP. The toggle always off for all toons of anyone with a pirate toon, and anyone without can choose whether and when to allow themselves to be attacked.
I played an MMO years ago that had such a toggle. It made the game a lot more fun. Toggle on when you just feel like being left alone and toggle off the rest of the time.
There is really no reason not to have such a toggle if the game code would allow it. There are very few players that would always use the toggle and there would be some that could never use it. Most players would use it occasionally such as when they were concentrating on a particular quest and wanted to finish it in during the amount of playing time available to them. It would also be useful on those days when your game is dcing a lot or really laggy. It is bad enough to deal with npc pirates that are already attacking you before you even know they are there.
Condoning by definition means that voluntary PvP is somehow bad or wrong. It is not. Therefore I am not sure what you mean by condone. I Support voluntary PvP. I support choice and a fun game for all players. I do not support flags. I do not support some players having to pay extra to enjoy the game.
Because there is not one person on this game that will think
“ah I will go and do a nanban run...let’s make sure I’m all set for pvp”
Pvp in this game is not just 2 guys arranging a battle.
It’s a game of pursuit, hide and seek, and surprise attacks.
Pirates do not try to attack people of equal strength.
Not so at all. As I mentioned, anyone with a pirate toon could never use the toggle. That means you could always attack other pirates and any of their alts. Also there are many who have stated that even though they are not pirates, they enjoy having pirates around for the challenge. These players would also not use the toggle except maybe on the rare occasion. Only a very few would use the toggle on a regular basis. Not nearly enough to affect piracy.
As you know, toons receive no war pacts as rewards. I played on and off for about 5 and a half years. When Papaya took over, all of my toons still had ALL of their no war pacts.
I made many nanban and spice runs and not once did I use "protection". Having a toggle will be of little effect except to those players who will probably leave the game if they are pirated more than rarely. It is better to keep such players in the game with a toggle concession than it is for them to just leave.
But I would be willing to put my house on the fact that if a toggle was available anyone and everyone would use it if doing a spice run or nanban.
As a pirate I want to attack defensless traders. And maybe just maybe I find one that hasn’t toggled the pvp to off....but after I’ve plundered them you can guarantee the next time they make the trip they will not enable pvp.
It won’t happen anyway, it would be a bigger nerf of pirates than the removal of DB. It would be 1 step forward 2 steps back.
A toggle would only be positive for the game.
It is all a moot point anyway. I am certain that Papaya is already planning how they will spend the money garnered from selling a Protection from Pirates spell.
Pirates are only a problem for the ones that don’t prepare
Lol, I'm just using it to point out how stupid some of the bickering is. :p
It's also a very good quote and is handy to break up arguments. :P
I think a toggle would be a very bad idea. Because it would automatically be abused. A player who felt so inclined could go to SEA with it off then sail back to Europe with 100m+ worth of spice without having to worry. It would go back to the way it was with OGP.
1. It's easy, get a blue flag, no sensible businessman would add a feature that cut a good portion of sales in the forms of flags. :p
2. There are ways of evading pirates(I used them all the time back when BBB and SL locked SEA down.
3. The ones who won't use the toggle weren't ever the issue. It was 80% of the ones that would. They would probably sail with fleets of 5 alts and make truckloads of money flooding the market. THe potential to get murdered by pirates reduces that.
I'm sorry, but in my opinion this would take us back to the way things were with OGP.

If you start as a French sailor youl have the backing of the entire nation behind you, assuming you earn the respect of your peers you are not going to be alone!
All other nations representative would probably tell you the same. This game is unlike other games, its fundementaly based on how well you can work together with your nation and dominate!
If news of a French sailor having trouble with pirates gets to my ears you can be sure there will be discussions behind the scenes and making notes! You shall be avenged!
VIVE LA FRANCE!
