@jesus_phish: Yeah, it was back the next time I logged in. Not a terribly big deal.

Not sure how I feel about getting jumped and killed in an outpost while trying to turn in quests. Especially when playing solo or as a duo, there isn't much you can do to defend yourself if you're walking up to an NPC with a quest item in hand, and suddenly you've got two other players shooting and/or hacking you to pieces before you can turn it in. Then after that, they just camp your ship and take you for all you're worth. It'd be one thing if it was a run-in with another group out in the wider world -- it's a pirate game, after all -- but it just feels like the outposts should be neutral ground. Hell, there's even a sign posted in the tavern that implies as much. But I was playing with my girlfriend, and we'd gotten a bounty from a message in a bottle, spent a good chunk of time completing it, and then as we were walking into the faction tent with skulls in hand we got cut down, lost the skulls, and then had our boat camped. It wasn't an especially fun note to end our night of adventuring on.
