Chart decay rates

I'm pretty sure that storing charts on a ship makes them decay like a labour badge, while holding them on your pirate lets them decay like a rank badge. Also, I'm sure interarch charts last longer than standard ones, and storing on a ship makes them last longer than being logged in every day. Confirmation? --Piplicus 23:14 29th August 2005 (PDT)

So was I, until Wlada told me about his test (he bought two new maps—left one on his person and one on a ship; they both decayed after exactly one month). The issue I still need to test is whether not using a ship for a month affects the decay rate, but after a month I'll have to check the ship every day (so that could be tough to accurately test). Maybe chart decay used to be different, or maybe it was all a conspiracy theory to get new players to share their maps. =) – Yaten ^talk 04:41, 30 August 2005 (PDT)

Bumping this point, but - are we certain that charts decay after 30 days, and that interarch charts do not last longer? --Piplicus 09:12, 27 November 2005 (PST)

Check the discussion on User talk:Guppymomma/decaytest. --Guppymomma 09:23, 27 November 2005 (PST)

Redirects

There should be redirects to here from "map", "maps" and "charts".

Excellent suggestion. I've added them all. --Barrister 11:39, 7 October 2005 (PDT)

Atlantis charts

Should we add a different heading regarding charts that lead to Atlantean Outposts? --Cecidrake 11:16, 5 September 2007 (PDT)

Yes, please do. Make sure to mention the whole no memming thing for them too :) --Guppymomma 14:52, 5 September 2007 (PDT)

Since the charts are not available yet to get through pillage and stuff I'm gonna hold the edit for a bit. I have a version of how the article would look like in my sandbox. I will work a bit more on it and add a few more historical notes so as to reflect the availability issue. --Cecidrake 20:37, 5 September 2007 (PDT)
