A quick lesson in piracy

Like all multiplayer games, there are going to be those who just can't keep their mouths shut. And over the years I've learned an extremely important lesson; smack talking is an other weapon in your arsnal against those who oppose you. No matter how insignificant you think it is, it still has a pretty darn impressive effect down the lines. I have seen people getting way to complacant and using the smack talk as a judge for their skills. This is a big failure.

It also has an upside, in a way it sets up a psychological barrier between you and your enemies. In an MMO generally everyone you meet is a nice person IRL. But with smack talk you set up an image that your a dick, and need to be killed. Making it easier for you to make a call whether to kill them or not.

Also, its fun.
