I cannot answer for the first part, but the 'sticky
Alt key' bug is well known to players (although FLS seem to have given up trying to fix it after their last disasterous attempt well over a year ago).
It is triggered by using the Alt key in a combination. Alt-Tab or Alt-Enter are the most common culprits but it will also happen if you use the Alt key in any shortcuts you have set up. Don't...

i agree with 90% of what u said here, but i do think u underestimate the hh
for ft's. every ft in a pb should be in a HH imo. 18 lbers for range
fighting, lots of armor to soak up damage, and good maneuverability to
block for more vulnerable lineships.

you play as an NO dont you?
most ships turn thru the wind fine. if you are having trouble turning thru the wind, try sailing a slerc. it turns just fine. also, there are multiple mods for increasing polars, both upwind and
downwind.
PvP fights being on the OS with the tag. The tag is the entire basis of the fight. obviously, you wouldn't want to tag or be tagged with your bow ...

For
god and country is a must.. use it early. I also use rake often to even things out in the crew debuff department.
Use scatter shot early (or, save it for an opponent invincible/tmtd).
After a while, you start to learn where exactly where in your reload cycle you need to toggle things off in order to have morale for the next spike... i know the exact point on my gun reload animation ...

a) i don't think FLS servers could handle the traffic
b) That would be one hell of a mess with many of the game's
current mechanics

Neither.
It adds 15% to your Sails Defence stat. This decreases the accuracy of the ship firing at you if they are using dismantling shot.
Ok, so setting Battle Sails does improve your accuracy because it slows down your ship. However, you slowing down might also improve your enemy's accuracy if it reduces your
angular velocity relative to the enemy ship.
