They kept a “pirate code” on board
Pirate crews often signed a code of conduct with rules on loot-sharing, punishments, and behavior. Breaking it could mean losing your share, or worse, losing a limb. Blackbeard’s crew even banned gambling and drinking below deck.
To be a successful pirate, you had to follow the rules, which is kind of hilarious.
