Q. What rank do I have to be to build ships?
A. You can build dhows from cadet rank.

Q. What rank do I have to be to build cannons?
A. You can build and fire rusty cannons from cadet rank, and carronade cannons and mortars from gunner rank.
Q. How can I claim my house?
A. A Golden Spade is used to create and resize claims to protect your home.
Q. How do I sail a ship?
A. To pilot your ship, or steal another, right click the ships control sign with your Golden Hoe, you will be greeted with a message saying you have successfully piloted the ship. To move, right click in the direction you want to move with your Golden Hoe, Your ship will start to move in that direction unless you are being obstructed by land or docks. To rotate your ship, you will need a sign on your ship with the line [helm] on board, This will turn into a wheel once activated by right clicking with a golden hoe, To rotate right click the sign with a empty hand to rotate clockwise and left click with an empty hand to rotate anti-clockwise, this will cause your whole ship to rotate. To release your ship you have to use the command /release in chat, or create a [release] sign on the ship, Or you could just leave your ship and wait for the 30 second timer to end. Alternatively, if you fall off and can't get back in, simply type /manoverboard to be placed back on your ship.

Q. I have just been killed at a public warp!
A. Yes, I'm afraid that is a common occurrence. The warps are player owned, hence have no pvp protection. Although it is discouraged, killing at warps is not a crime so you'll have to be wary of this every time you visit one.
Q. How do I play piratecraft?
A. This is a pirate themed minecraft server, not a minigame. You play like you would on a normal server, with the addition of several plugins. Most notably, the ships and cannons plugins.
Q. I have a problem that requires help from staffmembers!
A. Please make a support ticket, http://piratemc.com/forums/server-support/support-tickets/.
Q. How do I leave spawn and find a home?
A. You can leave spawn by doing the /warp command. Through most warps you will be able to walk a ways and find a home. The warps North, South, East, and West are the best for this if you are willing to pay the $15 fee required. You can also do /map and follow the link that appears to find a spot that suits your needs. There is no /wild.

Q. I am a deckhand and I want to join a crew!
A. This server has a ranks system, and as the starter rank it is usually quite difficult for a deckhand to find a crew. It is recommended that you at least reach the cadet rank and show that you intend to stay with this server instead of expecting to start playing with a crew immediately.
Q. How do I get money?
A. A new player starts off with £25 in server cash, however this quickly dwindles. For a new player to make money who does not have much in the way of resources, the options are to vote with /vote; voting has a chance of giving cash sums as prizes as well as other resources or the player can gather resources that can be sold in sell shops. One example is the sell sign at /warp cove that enables a player to sell a stack of logs for £6.
