See, the problem with playing this 24/7, is that it can change the entire nature of the game. What if all of the crew of a particular ship logs off? The ship is left sitting out at sea just WAITING to be captured by crews who come on at that time. Captains could find themselves floating in the sea when they log back on. There's no way to control "hunters" who go around at late parts of the night capturing lots of ships that are floating crewless. There needs to be a way to control gameplay so that the war is fair, and the best captains win, no the ones who stay up the latest...Do you see my point?

Also, I DID have the idea of making the shore not FULLy automated. I think there should be non-automated taverns, casino's, hotels, and other places for the crew to go for ship leave, but a captain picking up rise could load it onto the ship automatically.

See my points here?
