Hey all.

Yes, you read the topic right. I might be quitting. Why? Well, I will get to that in a bit. But I need to discuss some things first.

First of all, I am neither writing this to get you to beg me to stay so I feel appreciated, nor am I writing this to fish for compliments or to get attention. I am just letting you know in advance about something that may happen. Second, I am not here to complain. I know how the game is played: you kill and get killed, steal and get stolen from. It’s how PirateCraft works (as one of my sayings goes, “It’s PirateCraft, not PrincessCraft”).

Now, I’m sure most of you can go on and on about how great this group of people is. I hate to be the one to rain on the parade, but this group of people simply isn’t as wonderful as you think. Now, I am certainty not going to rant about how terrible the server is and everyone in it because I joined ten minutes ago and can’t find my way out of Spawn, because it definitely is not that bad. 😉 I have interacted with many players who are nothing but kind and honorable, but I have also found that some players have a slice of malice in their character, and wish harm on others. As far as the actual server goes, it is one of the best in have ever found. I like how it has some mods, but not too many to make it complicated. I like the shops and economy, PvP plugins, and ranks. I have searched a while, but I don’t think I could ever find a server just as balanced as this one. I enjoy it greatly.

That being said, I feel as if my efforts are being wasted. I tend to put a lot of dedication into the things that I do, and that probably isn’t a good thing in a game where all your work can and will be destroyed or taken from you. Maybe this style of game just isn’t for me. This July will mark my one-year anniversary on the server. And what do I have to show for it? Only an apparently ugly little castle filled with worthless junk. I don’t even have any money. :p I just feel that for all the time that I’ve put into this server, I’ve only done what most could do in a month.

Another thing is that I don’t really know my place in PirateCraft. I’ve tried being the benevolent emperor, the loyal crew member, the solo player, and even the lawless rogue. But, I don’t seem to fit any of those exceptionally well, and again, I feel that my efforts are just being wasted…

TL;DR: I feel like my efforts and my time are both being wasted, and that I might not be cut out for this server.

Remember, I just said might. I have a lot of thinking to do.

Ah, Kitsune. You and I have so many memories, such as the time you helped kill invaders in an Elven city last summer and when you were in USE for one day. I have been in the same situation as you, where I felt that despite me being on the server for over a year and having over 20 days playtime, I had amounted to nothing and had failed at many things. I have been a role playing elf, a USE leader, a pirate, and other things, but now I feel that I have finally found what’s right for me, and that is being a part of the British Empire. Just keep trying and eventually you’ll find what’s right for you. You’re a very kind person and I hope you decide to stay.

I never really spoke or talked to you, yet I always felt some sort of friendship with you.

I knew you started your first days of an empire near mine, which i quickly panicked about but secured an alliance with you, i thought your empire was going down a treat, i didn’t realise the pain you had been going through.

I remember also when you’d moan at me complaing how I was “Still a Sailor” until as of something months ago, i spent a week grinding in Max’s grinder to get to Gunner and fill the exp need of a boatswain.

But besides that, i hope you continue to stay on the server, perhaps try the empire side again? idk, but good luck 🙂

Before I betrayed your entire crew I liked you. I still like you, you’ve never dwelled on the past, our previous mistakes, It’s amazing you exist. You’re always so chill and one of the people holding up my sanity. Don’t make me go Insane in The Membrane!

PLEASE STAY-Qwerticorn/Otitoes/iOdiwanKenobi

PrincessCraft, seems fit with 90% of the complaints I get, I like it. Thanks @Kitsune_X Im going to use this for the whiners from now on!

As for finding your place, maybe you just haven’t found the right people to play with, The age group of minecraft in general has fallen dramatically, which sadly brings with it the ignorance of a very young crowd which I can’t change.

As for building, GriefPrevention is king, protection is solid, people cant destroy land that is claimed, claim a large enough area and its yours to do with as you please, a lot of people make the mistake of not claiming enough land around their builds to stop other people screwing up the land, there is a forum thread to request this to be regenerated.

Well, this has indeed become a reality. It’s been fun some days, and not others. But, I can say that I will miss some of you.

Kitsune you stated that you weren’t cut out for this server. Here is my suggestion. It seems as if (This happens to many players including myself) that you must be a specific character. This is, once again, is common. I thought that and did the same thing, but it only got me further down. I was, when I first joined, wanted on every sign around the map. Then I join the EE. Everything changed. There were punishments ?. So I thought that I had to be a ruthless leader and follow the playbook. I tried. I failed. I quit. I rejoined when I realized that there is no possible way to successfully be a specific character. So I rejoined and did what I do best. Be a dork. And I’m going mighty fine. My goal and should be yours too is to be on that character list so it goes like this: the loyal crew member, the solo player, lawless rogue, the dorki, and the Kistune

By that I mean that instead of trying to be someone else be your own hero.

Best of luck, @Kitsune_X

I have decided to stay. 😛 It did take some consideration though.

@CelticTiger38: Thanks. 🙂 To be honest, I am surprised that you remembered that much. 😛 It’s been fun playing with you and I look forward to what the future may bring.

@Gottalovepunks: Don’t worry, I’ve decided to stay. Hope to have some more fun in the future. ^_^

@Palmerageddon: I agree, I never really have known you, but I feel like that should be changed. 🙂 I only slightly remember what you are talking about with the whole sailor thing, but I apologize if I was too annoying. 😛

@Odiwankenobi: For the millionth time, it wasn’t my crew. X’D I had disbanded it the day before due to inactivity, and it was just a group of players from different crews. Anyway, thanks for all the fun mate, and I hope we can have lots more in the days to come. (And maintaining your sanity? I must be doing a terrible job. 😉 )

@Icanra: Don’t worry, I’ve decided to stay! ^_^/

@Godsdead: You’re welcome! Feel free to use it whenever and wherever you wish! The term has become quite popular lately. And I should probably try claiming more land around my builds, I never used to do that.

@Odiwankenobi: Your killing machine? I can only imagine what it must do. 😛 And as for the XE, I hardly know a thing about it…. Besides, I may have something else in mind. 😉

@dorkito101: Be my own hero… Honestly, that sounds like something I should have done a long time ago. Thanks for the advice. 🙂
