Was starting a guy in jamestown but was informed its a test server and noticed its pretty dead so started a new guy in roanoke. Any towns have room for a newbie. Looking to learn and have fun. I Dont expect any handouts just people to hang with.

Jamestown is not pretty dead, it's not a test server and it's not gonna be shut down. But do whatever you want to, we have enough drama to deal with since Biddas is getting mad over our pirates

You might be able to find a good town. We got burnt by taking in someone that stole from every member and it was hard but he died a grusome death. So, my advice is don't bite the hand that feeds you!! You will die!! Thanks to Good friends.. We got back stuff that was precious to us. On a happy note.. We are a friendly group

First rule : do not believe everything people can tell you, trust is definitly not something you can offer to anyone in Salem. I'm glad to hear you're staying on Jamestown, we might cross each-other's path there, and if we do so, you'll then learn what is Jamestown and why it's so cool

Unfortunately... trust issues being what they are... you have a better chance of joining a town when you have a clue... vs joining a town to get a clue. The only exception to this is if you are joining RL friends who invite you in up front.
Trust is everything though. Don't be a criminal, don't give anyone a reason to mistrust you and do your best to stay out of politics and be the a dead head when talking in town.... that's not to say you can't be intelligent, just don't talk about who is who and what you heard they did. (I got wasted on Tribe by ignoring local politics...and then I almost got wasted again by being too inquisitive on another server... when the safe spot was to know and not admit that you know...just use what you know to dance through the hoops to where you want to be... hope that makes sense.)
You could be talking to someone's alt... And they will peg you as 'with' one faction or another.
Ultimately, it's best to know a lot and admit you know nothing. Ever. Not even to those you trust totally. They could turn on you or in candid chat say you know more than you might be willing to defend, etc.
If you can manage that and not betray those that take you in... you'll find a happy home somewhere in Salem...

Fact is there is no "political faction" on Jamestown. Darwoth as a single man cannot be counted as a faction, and Pirates, well, they are pirates. They don't fight for politics. That said, as long as you don't insult people, being curious is important to know what's going on, and asking people in game is not that dangerous.

Mostly true, they aren't so much "factions" but there are certainly relevant groups that start drama sometimes, and if you are identified as with them then you're going to have problems *cough*newpirates*cough*
