A good start as a new (or older) pirate is to always remember that these are real people you are talking to behind those pirate faces. Treat others as you would your friends, or just people you might meet normally. If someone says "Ahoy!" to you, it is generally considered polite to say some form of greeting back. As well as being polite, this also helps you to begin making friends in the community.
