Annebony who was very active only got around 1m bounty and nukeshaw who port camps with a spotter only got to around 2m bounty, so I’m not sure how achievable this is with the Maris population.
I’m not complaining about it, I’m a white name now anyway but I find it a funny buff xD

I still find it fun being a pirate.
I have not hunted in about 3-4 months and only hit a few people when in the right place and I am still in the top 10!
Guess there is hardly any pirates actually hunting.
Chongqing
all trades are equal.
I tried hunting for awhile today and almost no one on the seas.
@spookles don't tell me you attack other reds/oranges! How savage. :)
It was nukeshaw and it annoyed my because at the time I was working my way to the top of the most wanted but he quickly left me behind easily.
I really don’t see the point in it, there is no thrill or chase, no intelligence needed.
For me real pirating is our thinking someone, chasing them down and also facing the chance of losing them.
A comp member of mine who at the time was in a different comp got booted because he was accused of selling his friends/comp members location to me.
I feel sad for him cos it isn’t true, but also happy because it shows I caught people in places they though it was impossible or very unlikely to be caught.
That’s also why i did a few posts about pirating in the past complaining about empty sea’s, because I would play the odds and pick somewhere i think a trader should be rather than wait outside a port.
So many times I would catch a trader in the middle of the sea and they would actually say ‘gg’
Now I prob can’t catch many, I use my oxfords for rare plunder and don’t want to keep spending money on speed boosts.
Who are the pirates and what are the spotters names? Name and shame em :)
I never used a spotter alt and I guess I can understand why people do that because since pirates can’t go of search then sometimes you would want to be out of the sea zone or traders won’t leave port at all.
But to log in just outside the green zone is just not sportsmanship in my opinion and it also takes an challenge out of the game.
I complain about piracy rules but I also expect it to be a challenge. I expect some to get away and I times maybe to even lose.
Doing the method described above takes and chance or challenge from it. Almost like a bot.
Thousands of games have interfaces that allow you to control all your party members. This one does not because it was designed to have you play A character and not characters. Period. There is no way anyone can reasonable argue otherwise.
It's purpose is to have people actually group with other players. But instead everyone found ways to bend the rules to make it easier.
And before you say it- you can do everything without alts. I did it on gama. I was able to G6 all my ships without a single alt. I did all my own SBing. Anything that needed a skill that I did not have i would fleet with a friend or comp mates.
Storage? I managed that without alts as well.
So the 'you need alts' is BS. It's you Want alts.
I want millions of dollars because it would make life easier, I don't NEED millions.
