Message to the savages
You folks are simply amusing! Threatening us with two members? I think it's more like YOU stay off of Shartak entirely! We came in peace but we'll defend ourselves with force if need be! I repeat, leave us alone or be hunted. These are our terms! --One of many doctors 00:17, 7 April 2006 (BST)
Three members now! Although Eris appears to be fairly incapacitated. Keep invading our island and we'll keep sending you packing, my friends! --Less Than Lethal 20:24, 25 April 2006
We're usually too busy getting bitten by sharks to prosecute our war against you. "Join us or die" is words. Morgan Freelance killing Oulatek is action. He started the war. Take it up with him. Oh, and get it straight. We're not savages. We're barbarians. -Oulatek 04:57, 2 May 2006 (BST)

draft of an NPOV entry for the islet/island
I have attempted to draft what I hope is a relatively neutral-point-of-view entry for the wiki that links to both your La Islet Bonobo and our Shark Island pages. I have tried to keep it relatively sparse and to link to the more detailled pages, rather than trying to encompass everything on one page (and inevitably leading to both groups feeling disatisfied that their position has been unfairly represented). I would appreciate your criticism and/or editiorial modifications - especially regarding the dates when you first claimed the islet and first named it.Anothertwilight 02:39, 5 May 2006 (BST)
The Mountaineers
As fellow explorers, we of the Mountaineers (and, by that, I mean "I," since, at present, I'm the one Mountaineer) greet you all and offer partnership. While I know your focus is on the islands, I'm sure that many of you are also curious about the mountain. Perhaps some of your number (only outsiders, however; savages need not apply) would be interested in preserving the mountain and protecting her. Any such individuals would be welcome in the Mountaineers (and, as is said on the page, they need not leave the DCC). They won't find me there now, though, if they go looking; I'm making a supply run.--Wifey 20:30, 15 May 2006 (BST)
New Tortuga
The Scurvy Crew of the Hell-born Strumpet have decided that the western island shall be the target of their next incursion. This does not mean that they claim it to the exclusion of all others. If the current residents desire a peaceful coexistence with the newly arrived Pirates, then no harm shall be commanded against them. To put it bluntly: We won't swing the first cutlass. If, however, you decide that your claim on the island is to the exclusion of all others bloody murder will doubtless ensue.

Hello. I appear to have joined the ranks of the DCC. --tenebrae 16:22, 15 September 2006 (BST)
A Gentleman's Wager
A sportsmanlike match has been proposed between a member of the Scurvy Crew and the Jolly Roger Gang to take place at the ruins well south of the shipwreck. All habitants of Shartak are invited to witness the match, and bet upon their favorite fighter. Natives who are at the wreck at the date of the match are guarenteed to be unharrassed by the participating clans and Outsiders. If needs be we'll postpone the fight a couple days to let the most people who want to join in the fun. Details will be posted on the Scurvy Crew's and whatever other pages agree to the match. It should be wicked fun. I mean, Come On! It's fight night!!!! Tyler Whitney 03:14, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
Hometown
I have just made a list of all the groups operation in a certain city on the city articles. I could not find out where your group is based. Please add your group under the correct cities. -Che 05:36, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
