    Some deckhands wanted to know how the crew was formed so instead of explaining each time i’m just going to sent this link, sorry it’s so long xD I got bored so i made a little story lol.

    THE HISTORY OF THE PLANT NATION:

    A long time a go in the mists of February 2016 a small Plant grew on the Ibroian Peninsula. Plant was looking for a place to stay and a somewhere to call home. Then suddenly a player called Palmerageddon recruited Plant for his crew, the Ibroian Order. Plant went the Palmer’s island and found a hill of sunflowers. Plant built a house at the bottom of this hill, the walls were made of sand and cobblestone, a tall wood tower shot up along the right side of the house. After a few months Plants house was full of Armour, chickens , mine carts and even an underground tunnel that lead to a stone brick watch tower. After a while plant was told several times that the house wasn’t siege-proof. plant had no idea what a ‘siege’ was and couldn’t be bothered to look on the website and thought that ”siege and land claims are far to complicated for a small little plant me!”

    plant got fed up of all the mithering and set out to create a siege-proof  base that was the most siege-proof of them all! But plant would need some help! plant invited her friend Amazeballs1 to the server and they had a great time! they built information centers, shops, a very tall farm! and many other amazing structures! Plant lived on the first floor, the second floor of the base was shared and Amazeballs1 lived on the third. They would Skype almost everyday ad play piratecraft together!

    Soon after the creation of the base Plant and Amazeballs heard some news Palmer hadn’t been online as much as he used too. One day when he was online he came down from his Hill top Brick castle and told the pair that the Ibroian order would be moving the remainder of its active crew members to another crew. This crew as called TXO the Xanthian Order. So Plant, Amazeballs and another good crew friend Mande09 all moved over to the new crew. This was great, new crew! new sailor rank! everything was so fun!

    The leaders of TXO were Maximus_Terragon, Chailey and Thymen. After a while Amazeballs1 stopped playing because he was getting bored and wanted to play on different servers. Plant thought he was boring and thought Amazeballs1 was boring.  Since the crew island wasn’t as lively as it used to be plant was all alone, although plant was friends with the leaders of TXO it wasn’t the same. Plant asked if some new recruits from the crew wanted to live on the island so some did. Max, Chailey and Thymen Created a street of houses made especially for new members to live in, they also built a docks full of ships and boats. You see, all of this may seem good but every crew member the leaders recruited left after a day or two. No members stayed loyal to the crew. Plant wanted to recruit members herself to liven the island up a bit but she had no permission. Plant needed a crew of her own.

    After months and months of debating and thinking plant finally made the decision to create THE PLANT NATION. This would be a brand new start but also a great risk, would plant be able to handle running a crew? would plant have the money? Plant stopped worrying and left TXO. Going solo was hard at first but after a while plant gt the hang of it. Plant was recruiting so many players the crew was growing faster and faster. Still though, plant had the same problem. Every single member she recruited would be amazing, they would talk and create a house and after they created a house they would log off, and never log back on ever again. Plant always hoped with every new player recruited that this would be the player that stick would stick with the server and eventually become vice captain of the crew. But nobody ever did. A few players built AMAZING houses and ships and stayed with the crew for a few weeks but no matter what they would always get bored and leave.

    Some players would join the crew and build a tiny dirt house and leave without trusting plant in their claim. This means plant is stuck with the tiny dirt house on the island FOREVER . this is yet another reason plant claims the houses.

    TODAY:

    To this day plant has been unsuccessful in recruiting a member that has been loyal to the crew and stuck with piratecraft. Plant hopes in the future that someday she will have a Vice Captain of the crew who is active just as much as plant. But for now the search continues.

    Dear people reading this:

    If you would like to see any of the build listed in this story please /msg __plant in game or use /mail. All of the builds like the sand house and TXO Lane are still standing today. Player Heads of Amazeballs1 and other crew members are available to see on the side of __plants base.

    Thanks for reading i hope to see you in-game :p

    Hi I'm _SPOOKYPLANT ( or plant for short ). I run a crew called the Plant Nation. The Plant Nations main focus is to recruit new deckhands to the server and run the peninsula which is growing my the second! Aside form all this I also work with my personal friends every now and again to run a town we are in the process of building, I also run a market stall at /warp shop if you would like to check it out!

    Hello, I have some suggestions for the server which would make the gameplay better. – Pearl Cooldown; I remember there used to be something like this that didn’t let you throw another pearl if the one already thrown didn’t land, and sadly this plugin got removed/broke(?). I’m suggesting that we add a 15 second (or more) pearl cooldown so people can’t just pearl spam and be able to escape from any situation. -Anti Combat log; The server already has a combat tag plugin, but the thing is people usually pearl spam away and wait till the 15 seconds of combat tag run out so they can combat log safely. An anti combat plugin that spawns an NPC with the inventory of a person who logged out the server without typing in /logout and waiting till the 30 seconds (or less) log out delay expires so they can be logged safely. This would avoid combat loggers and deaths caused by the Anti Cheat, since when you get kicked you can re-join back where your NPC was since it doesn’t instantly kill you after logging. -Tough blocks in siege; There a few ‘soft’ blocks on the siege list, like planks and coblestone, but some blocks like wood/coblestone stairs and slabs aren’t soft. This enables people make bases out of coblestone/wood stairs and slabs, and this doesn’t make sense since slabs are cheaper than full blocks. Blocks like melons, pumpkins, all crops, and farmland blocks should be implemented in the soft block siege list as well since they contain an obtainable item (ie Melon blocks break into melon food).

    I remember having that end pearl cooldown, I think we’ve had it 2 ways, 1 was a cooldown till you can throw the next one and the second was until the first dropped. The plugin I used to use was called Fbasics, it had a bunch of basic PVP/Faction/Survival tweaks, but it hasn’t been updated since 1.8 and I removed it as it was causing more trouble, and 60% of it didn’t work anyway. I don’t think limiting end pearls will be a positive change, just an infuriating one to most players.

    Anti Combat log: What you just described with the NPC being left in their place once they log out, That IS the plugin we use. Its the paid variant, I had this on the server at one point, but the use of NPC’s caused issues with the anti-cheat and duplication glitches, as well as leaving ghosted players, and sometimes when people spammed logging in/out with the PVP tag it used to leave a trail of ghosts. it was a fucking mess.

    I do see your point though there are some major disadvantages of this combat log:

    • Getting kicked by the anti cheat for a false positive
    • Some ways in sieges

    Then again, if I disabled it it would cause dramatic stress from people escaping using logging out, I had a poll not so long ago (November 16, 2016 ) requesting the PVP tagged timer to be increased. The results were everyone wanted it kept the same as it is. increasing it by 5 seconds would make PVP last longer and harder to avoid running. But it would piss off anyone that is tagged antecedently when building and just be irritating. catch 22.

    [poll id=”47″]

    Siege soft blocks: I added a bunch of new soft blocks, and it just didn’t work, the siege hasn’t been updated or touched by the developer in 4 years, its an utter piece of shit, I created a thread in September 2016 how we could remake siege https://piratemc.com/topic/suggestion-how-do-we-re-make-siege/

    The entire siege system needs to be re-made, at present the GriefPrevention developer is remaking the entire plugin from scratch and hes separating parts of it into their own separate plugins, like addons, siege is one of them, when this happens I want to see if we can get a bunch of developers to re-make siege from the ground up using a system I have pre-planned already, sadly I don’t have the time to learn to program Java or I would do it myself. I know what siege needs to be and how it should work, we just need developers for when the time comes to do it.

    I think the player shops search page has not worked for a while. Search space just spins idle and wont let me enter anything. Tested on Chrome and Firefox.

    Not related to any of these updates. yeah The plugin that exports the data throws errors, but it still generates the data and I upload it, im not sure why it suddenly stopped working. I think its JS side of the web UI, I didnt make the script that phrases the data, only the front end look.

    If you search the forums for discussions on TP and delays, you will find that there have been many discussions throughout the years on this very topic. This is something we as staff discuss among ourself annually, and not trying to be rude; but our stance stays the same on this topic. There will always be players that disagree with whatever the decision is. So my suggestion is to be more creative with your tricks and traps. As a long term player, I know that there are ways to kill even donators almost instantly. Thanks for voicing your concerns.

    this ban is a strange argument. i can’t believe i’m coming back to here even though i know i’m just gonna get brushed off by people who refuse to change their opinion on the topic. Now saltpigeon is not the most innocent person on this server. has he gotten a lot of warnings? yes. were all of them worthy? possibly. But now looks like “the staff” caught him for advertising on teamspeak/discord. Now i was not there for most of this but as some people probably know saltpigeon has a group of friends who may i remind you were brought to this server BY him. The way this server handles “advertising” is ridiculous. you don’t control groups of friends on piratecraft. When a group of people come on here to devote time to playing on THIS server you can’t force them to stay. you have to persuade them to stay by providing good content. having a staff team that rules with an iron fist and will ban any group of people that even so much as look at another server is ridiculous. You want a player gone so badly? you can make them quit. Oh what there’s a rule against that now that isn’t written down anywhere? looks like the only way to get rid of them is to ban them! This server was originally designed to solve conflict with battle. This brings me back to my “persuasion with good content” i mentioned earlier. The whole reason these players are being witch hunted to being banned is because some people who i will keep anonymous (you probably already know anyways) don’t like another person playing on here. and because of the lack of capability of getting the players to leave without staff involvement they taunt them, get them to retaliate, then cry to the staff. it’s an endless cycle where the only people that ever win on here are the ones that (i can say this with solid evidence) have the staff on their side.

    “Alli you haven’t shown your face in months. why do you care?”     well i just so happen to be going BY MYSELF to other servers that provide better content and communities. You can’t ban me for that can you? oh wait what’s that someone from this server followed me to [server name]? immediate on the chopping block for a ban. Since a certain player didn’t like that they decided that the best way to deal with it was to try to get me banned. Guess it didn’t work because there wasn’t solid evidence. then i wind up getting kicked from the crew because they couldn’t ban a person they didn’t like.

    “this all sounds terrible! if this is true why wouldn’t the owner of the server do something about it?” i hear you saying. Well i’m going to say this outright because nobody else has the guts. you know why this hasn’t been fixed and has been allowed to get like this? because guess what Mr.Owner cares about? M-O-N-E-Y. Only now has this come into play because Mr.Owner could just sit back and keep the server functional under minimal effort. But slowly over time vital game mecahnics have broken and what has been done to fix them? Nothing… Absolutely nothing. you know why nothing has been done to fix it? because it wouldn’t make more MONEY. This goes for both sides? you want to stop getting banned for stupid reasons like trying to invest some of your time into more entertaining things? Stop donating until the staff team is fixed. You want to do something about these players  you dislike personally? stop donating until it’s fixed. People fail to realize that as they bicker over the problems of the server they are STILL donating. The owner sees this as “well they haven’t stopped donating. That means they’re okay with it. why should i fix it? they can handle it themselves” and does nothing to fix it. If you issues to be fixed then persuading the owner is the best option.

    “but what if i get banned for it?” Most likely you won’t be if enough people listen to some nobody that’s played on here for longer than about 90% of the people that read this (not playtimewise. i’m not that person with over 3000 hours of playtime on here), the only thing that keeps this server alive is the donations. If you demand better content before you donate, you will get better content. End of story.

    “but those people that do donate will have an advantage!” No they won’t. Not by much at least. If they had enough of an advantage that you’re forced to donate this server would have been blacklisted for eula violation. Which it hasn’t.

    Wow what a wall of text huh? Now hopefully some people will realize they shouldn’t be yelling at each other for their issues. But should be talking to the person who can actually fix them.

    Disclaimer: i do appreciate everything this server has done to be  entertaining and i do not “hate” this server. It just has some issues that could be easily resolved if people would be willing to do something about it rather than hating each other. Also if this is enough to ban a player who has only recieved a single warning as punishment over the course of 4+ years then this server has proven how it treats it’s players, like an income source, Putting the nail in the coffin for it’s reputation.

    Ok about keem and ice using cysteen’s skins. Well first of all i found those skins on skindex yesterday which i do believe are there for people to use because otherwise i dont believe they would be uploaded there. The griefing and sieging and rude books are nothing new. Back in the day when i was a newbie a former member of Cov or now TAS, (which i will not name as those things have stopped happening long ago and i have no problems with them anymore) kept sieging me, stealing all of my stuff, bringing people in god with him so i didnt stand a chance since i didnt even get close to a god armor yet, but most importantly i found the terrain around my fort the next day completely griefed probably by the use of TNT. I also have a feeling he was stalking me as whenever i was building on my ship he got there, sieged me, sailed the ship infront of my fort, blew it up and left the remains of the ship just floating there in mid air. After he griefed one of my ships something rude slipped out of my mouth (which was not racist or anything, just me casually raging because he once again destroyed what i worked hard for) for which he then constantly threatened me that he will report me whenever i disagreed with him or just said something. He also falsely accused my neighbour of being my alt (he is a bit broke and i bought a mc account for him, and he changed password, username and everything so basically i have no access to it which means its not an alt). Not to mention the extremely rude signs i kept finding infront of my and my friend’s house. And here we are arguing because of someone changing their names and skins and because he dropped a rude book. Excuse my sort of a broken english, and take this just as an opinion.

    Thanks for reading this pile of crap

    Keep you'r friends rich
    and you'r enemies rich
    and wait to find out which is which.

    I have not been on much, but when I am on i am seeing constant belittling of Cysteen with sarcastic remarks. You changed your name to Systeen, which you have every right to change your name and we have every right to ban players you are a guest, but the sole purpose was to insight rage and troll(rule 1 btw) Take your 2 weeks and come back different players

    we havent done any raiding of TAS members , we sieged Cysteen once, so dont say we raid them all the time

    False I have recieved 3 sets of screenshots of sieges done by you on cysteen in the past 3 days

    “Has been attacking whenever we try to leave our bases.” 1- a big aspect of this sever is PvP related 2- we are waring crews therefore I have reason to attack you

    Just because this is a pirate server does not give you the right to harass players and chase them off the server.

    ” Xeuric admitted to telling me he was intentionally ruining Java’s crew just to mess with him.” 1- No I didnt, the reason he left is because Keem and I killed crew members and then this forced every one to leave 2- He shouldnt have made everyone leaders

    IDC about this this is irrelevant

    “Early today when Xeuric or Systeen was killed from having a home set on top of Jolem’s base, they dropped a book upon death called “Fuck Cysteen.”” 1- My spawn isnt at jolems so how can i have dropped book 2- On this topic Keem was killed roughly 20 times at his spawn and then his spawn was lava-ed, this I know is illegal

    #1 can be looked into given there is a time in which this occured #2 Why was his home not in a safe claim or somewhere that couldn’t have been lavaed in the first place? #3 you also did not deny the fact you had a book named that. These points again were completely irrelevant to the quote DENIED

     

    Java, I meant to say WE (keem and I) collectivly sieged her once. I sieged her the next day (different claim) with out Keem

    Ok I understand everything here EXCEPT the fact that some of you are arguing about keem and ice using the same skins as cysteen. Its understandable if someone takes 2 hours of his life to make a nice unique skin and then gets pissed off when someone fakes it.  But this is not the case here as I just found those skins on skindex yesterday which i do believe are open and free for everyone to use because otherwise i dont believe they would be uploaded on there. Also the griefing and sieging and rude books and stuff… lets see here a member of Cov(or whatever was it back then) or now TAS (which I will not name as those things have stopped and i have no problems with it anymore) used to siege me alot when i was a newbie to the server. After he first sieged me it was all fun and games but after a while i found the terrain of my fort completely griefed probably by the use of TNT. Ive also experienced him sieging me alot of times while i was building my ships and later he just stole them, blew them up infront of my fort and left the griefed remainings there. Also i found some extremely rude signs (I am not 100% sure who was it) infront of my friend’s house insulting me for claiming his house after he was banned because it was a pretty nice one. Also once he griefed my ship something slipped out of my mouth and i said something innapropriate (no it wasnt racism or any other kinds of stuff i was just raging and saying weird stuff), for which he later constantly threatened me to report me for that which i said, every single time i said something (and then here we are talking about harrasing because someone raided you and dropped a rude book) . I do realize i should report it but i didnt. But this is how it works here. Someone does the same crap as the other one yet only 1 receives the punishment. Hopefully you can excuse me because of my english, and dont take this as some sort of an insult to the members of TAS or others in the server its just my opinion about what is going on currently because of keem and ice.

    Thanks for reading this block of stuff

    Keep you'r friends rich
    and you'r enemies rich

    I would also like to add some things replying to naha’s post.

    Naha, you said; “Xeuric and Systeen have been constantly verbally assaulting many TAS players and constantly raiding them with very little to no time in between.”

    1- we gave what we took

    2- we havent done any raiding of TAS members , we sieged Cysteen once, so dont say we raid them all the time

    “Has been attacking whenever we try to leave our bases.”

    1- a big aspect of this sever is PvP related

    2- we are waring crews therefore I have reason to attack you

    “They sieged the claim Cysteen made for us to make the new build, but shortly after Xeuric and Cysteen were both kicked by AC.”

    1- Keem wasnt there until I won and tp-ed him

    2- I gave everything of value back to cys cos I know this is a bad way to die as I’m always kicked in siege.

    “They have been killing multiple TAS members daily and sieging with very little to no time in between.”

    1- Bullshit  i’ve killed one TAS member , PythonAce cos he was near my base

    2- The only TAS member we have sieged was Cysteen and we lost and left.

    ” Xeuric admitted to telling me he was intentionally ruining Java’s crew just to mess with him.”

    1- No I didnt, the reason he left is because Keem and I killed crew members and then this forced every one to leave

    2- He shouldnt have made everyone leaders

    “Early today when Xeuric or Systeen was killed from having a home set on top of Jolem’s base, they dropped a book upon death called “Fuck Cysteen.””

    1- My spawn isnt at jolems so how can i have dropped book

    2- On this topic Keem was killed roughly 20 times at his spawn and then his spawn was lava-ed, this I know is illegal

     

    So, I have been banned for harrasment- but im harrased daily on the server by people like JUSA, Cap, Turk

    They all say im Trash at Pvp, and always Put me down when I offer the 1v1 somone. Turk is always pressureing me into fighting him. I have looked at the true definiton of harrasment and this certainly matches.

    Side note – I didnt bad mouth Cysteen, i actually came into TS so say sorry because there is no glory in winning a siege via the AC. I returned her crapples but everything else had Curse of vannishing on it.

    Okta made a very valid point-

    “So when a powerful exclusive pirate crew full of experienced PVPer’s who members attack plenty of other crews for fun gets attacked by a couple of players they call harassment? LMAO”

    Not to be disrespectful to staff, but many of them are infact in TAS or CLTN which can maybe inflict biast? – just saying

    No offence to staff in that point, but i Know some stuff maybe dislike me but I can still respect their decisions

    One particualy helpful staff in this case was Max, and to you I say thanks 🙂

    For those of you that don’t know, I spent Monday evening through Friday this week evening with @turkeyman11a and @mountainrasta! Just thought I’d make a post to let you all know how it went 😀

    Monday evening

    I arrived at Belfast International Airport not long after 6pm, where turkey and mountain came to pick me up, where we met for the first time! They took me to their home, whilst pointing out several sights in Ireland. That was when I first realised how fucking beautiful Ireland as a country (or sovereign state, depending on how you want to look at it) is!

    When we got to their home I met Mrs. TurkeyAndMountain, they gave me a quick tour around (very nice house!), and showed me where I would be staying for the wake. A very nice little mobile that they have. What I found the most amazing about the whole place is that they live on the side of a mountain, and… Trust me, where I come from, mountains don’t exist.

    After they’d left me to settle in for a bit, I realised where I was and who I was with, and the excitement and pure joy that hit me at that moment I will never ever forget. It was a moment of pure ‘HOLY SHIT! I AM WITH MOUNTAIN AND TURKEY! AT THEIR FUCKING HOUSE. THEY ARE RIGHT FUCKING THERE.’

    Not much happened on Monday, so let us move onto Tuesday!

    Tuesday

    Tuesday was a day of touring and seeing some of what Ireland had to offer! There are some truly stunning sights in Ireland… Which… I wish I had seen, but clouds didn’t seem to like us very much on that day! Nevertheless, we did manage to go to a castle (turkey and mountain will shout the name in the comments, I hope, but I can’t for the life of me remember what the castle was called, unfortunately). The castle, although these days a ruin, was truly beautiful to see, and would thoroughly recommend it if you ever visit Northern Ireland 😀

    Tuesday afternoon was when the clouds really started rolling in. We went for a spin in mountain’s yoke (@mountainrasta, be proud of me!) throughout the Mourne Mountains, but due to the heavy level of clouds, we really couldn’t see very much. We went to get some food, and on the way home, the clouds starting fading slowly, so at one point, we stopped on a hill, and I got some pictures of some of the views really not far from their home!

    @turkeyman11a also wanted to show me a spot where physics ceases to exist, where a vehicle left in neutral will roll up a hill. And whilst mountain’s yoke did to a certain extent roll up said hill, it wasn’t the most impressive uphill rolling I’ve seen. Fortunately, there was a van that pulled in to the same spot, and rolled very satisfyingly up the hill. I’m fairly sure they weren’t using the accelerator, for one main reason. It’s fucking awesome to see something like that.

    Wednesday

    Wednesday was a day of pirate-themed minigolf and driving! The golf was great craic (again, mountain and turkey, BE PROUD OF ME!). We don’t know who won, but honestly, who gives a shit? We were there to have fun, and we really did! Especially after passing the same men’s room twice. We played both lots of 18 holes, some of which were much easier than others (I got holes in one in some, and had to give up after reaching the maximum number of goes on others). Turkey and mountain both managed to get a hole in one in the last hole of the first set, which earned them a very special reward! A gold doubloon, which entitles them to a free game, which is why I was very touched when turkey offered me his.

    Whilst we were playing the second set of holes, I got (rather rudely, methinks), spat at by a wooden totem pole… I didn’t feel too bad about it, though, because I know that turkey had been spat at by one previously.

    And, of course, being from PirateCraft, we couldn’t resist the opportunity to pose for a group photo beneath the pirate golf sign!

     

    Left to right: turkey, me, mountain

    Wednesday afternoon, after grabbing some grub at a great local Chinese, we headed to Ballaghaderreen to pick up Little Miss TurkeyAndMountain. ’twas a long drive, but got to see lots of both Northern and the Republic of Ireland. After arriving in Ballaghaderreen, turkey was really not looking forward to the drive home, but managed to suck it up and made it without sleeping… For the most part. Little Miss TurkeyAndMountain had bought a gift, too, which, although absolutely lovely and currently sitting on the wall above my bed, was completely unnecessary (I didn’t go to Ireland to be given gifts, after all!).

    Thursday

    Thursday was a really rather quiet day, we didn’t go out or do anything much. Thursday afternoon, as mountain so eloquently puts it, I ‘showed his kids how to kill each other’.

     

    It’s worth mentioning that during a 2v1 (me vs mountain and turkey), mountain did get cut, and I will forever feel shit for that (really sorry buddy… Love you <3). He said it wasn’t too bad… But it did bleed… A lot.

    Thursday evening, mountain seemed well enough to show me his air rifle, and let myself and turkey convince him to shoot for a bit. This… Turned out to be a bad idea, as one of turkey’s shots rebounded off the TV and hit him in the waist before, bouncing off the yoke between him and I. It was at this point (quite hilariously, I find), that turkey started jumping up and down with joy. Despite getting the amount of abuse he did on Friday, mountain was still very keen to go paintballing on Friday!

    Friday

    The morning of my last day in Ireland came. The day we went paintballing. On a mountain. An overgrown mountain. Which made it very hard to move. We started off playing Civil War (the teams were myself and turkey vs mountain, Mrs TurkeyAndMountain and Little Miss TurkeyAndMountain). Civil war was simple enough. The two teams lined up on opposite sides of the arena, and shot each other. You get hit, you’re out. You don’t. take a step towards the enemy team. Turkey and I ended up winning Civil War.

    I won’t bore you with all the details, but we played a Capture the Cripple sort of game, as well as some Castle Defence. Then came the free for alls. The first free for all was just that. Two lives, 10 second respawn time. I lost that one very quickly.

    And then mountain, turkey and I played a free for all Capture the Flag. Mountain ended up running out of ammo, and declared himself out. That left just me and turkey, and as soon as mountain said he was out, I saw turkey sprint for the flag, which was behind cover. So I ran up to the cover and started shooting at turkey from above the cover, and followed him as he reached the exit. I ended up shooting him in the back, so he dropped the flag and ran back to his base to start his 10-second respawn time. At this point, I ran as fast as I could (which, admittedly, is still slow). However, it seemed fast enough… I grabbed the flag, and started running back to my base, with my back to turkey. I was sweating so much running uphill that my mask started slipping off. Nevertheless, I kept going… And then I tripped, and fell up the mountain. I was convinced that I was going to lose at this point, yet I got up and kept running towards my base. And I made it. I threw the flag down, took my mask off, and leaned against the tires… And nearly threw up. Twice. Basically… I rekt turkeyman11a ez 10 hearts.

     

    And then I went home. Basically.

    So… Ya… That’s what went on in my week in Ireland 😀
