RP & General Questions.

[Twistedbran]

Ok, so I basically feel new to the game again, the first thing I did was install this mod (cause it seem to have most of the popularity) I'm down with rp, and i have read some of the posts about it but i'm generally confused in the fact of people building "clans", specifics on who or how to be come a "pirate" and the taxing behind that.. also the Civilian ID ? was this all in the original game? Pardon my ignorance on the subject but I plain don't remember... Also did this mod increase the AI effectiveness? These guys use nano bots like crazy, took me forever to kill them at the same ranking level (even below that for that matter). Any other big changes that I didn't mention that you might reply with to make my life easier is greatly appreciated.

Someone shed some light on this for me, any help is greatly appreciated
