The PPA welcomes all pirates, new and experienced, and provides a friendly, helpful environment in which to learn and experience the game. The PPA also provides officer training to experienced pirates, regardless of their flag or crew affiliation. We pride ourselves on being a fun crew to sail with, and a great place to play, whether you're with us temporarily or permanently.

We are a family-friendly crew. If you are a parent concerned about their child's play of the game, be assured that your child is safe with us. We do not allow swearing or other inappropriate behavior aboard our ships.

While we're a general-purpose crew, engaged in all facets of piratey life, including pillaging and trading, our primary mission is to serve the needs of the game and the Rudder Revolution flag by training new players and future officers. We offer very fair shares -- even division between all ranks, except for our newest cabin people, who receive a slightly lesser share. We expect that our mates will be rewarded for the time they spend on the seas with us, but our primary purpose is not to gather large sums of booty, but rather, to teach you to be better players of the game.

The PPA makes its home on the island of Epsilon, in the Emerald Archipelago, and its crew members can often be found hanging around at the docks.
