PERSONAL SPACE is the issue, not the various emotes. All of the emotes can be used objectionably.

To improve server-side performance the removed the concept of personal space.

The correct fix, is to make the PERSONAL SPACE logic simply be client-side.

Attacking valid features instead, is pure malice...the current programming team must intentionally be TRYING to kill POTCO faster, to drive people to free games faster. Kinda like making lava stop flowing, or intentionally making skies ugly (yet never adding rain.)

What can you make with a coin flip? I think thats the lesser of the emotes. =P Several years, and we have only a handful - now less. Things are moving more backwards than forwards.

I'm confused! u say its the best emote yet its wone of the lesser ones?

As they say on some other forums when you agree with someone... THIS.

Eliza Creststeel 11-24-2010 03:33 PM

I totally agree on the bad emote/screenshot issue. It's disney's own fault for removing the personal zone around the pirate. I have stranger guy pirates all the time get WAAAAY to close cuz they want to get all snuggly for a screen pic.

Folks can be pervs, they will find a way. Give us back COIN.

titanic95594 11-24-2010 04:51 PM

^ Strong words.... Maybe the coin is bugged? Like if your still repairing on a ship and you flip a coin, you flip a hammer.

metal1081 11-24-2010 05:22 PM

coin has always been bugged with the new stuff coming in.. repair glitch u would flip a hammer, seen some friends flip their cutlass and grenade lol.. still it's is pretty stupid that they took it away

Davy Bluekidd 11-24-2010 05:41 PM

I'm going to miss the coin emotion, but like Eliza said, people use emotions for "other" purposes.:sadmh9:

Speedway Master 11-24-2010 05:57 PM

This thread has officially became the missing coin thread.

I'm more interested in the higher-leveled enemies.

Also, hooray for the Guildmaster transfer ability.

titanic95594 11-24-2010 06:05 PM

To me that GM tranfer thing is EXTREMELY risky.

JM Ohara 11-24-2010 07:51 PM

Yes and no. I know a fair few dying or dead guilds that could be/ could have been revived by a GM transfer. This is especially true of guilds with inactive GMs, but active members. That's one thing I'm very glad they added. To me, it looks like they are totally restructuring guilds, and IMHO, we needed that bad. Now if we just had a rank like Lieutenant, between Officer and GM, then guild structure would be all set. It's a good step I think.

Davy_Mcwrecker 11-24-2010 08:50 PM

yes yes but we r asking for updates to quickly, we will have to wait. the reason the removed the personal space is cuz pirates would push noobs into enimies & make 'em get thrown in jail or push 'em into other stuff too.

ya i bet so too since that's like all they do pretty much

anyways, i TOTALLY LOVE the option where u can transfer GM status to another pirate <33333333333333333333333

Those screenshots are taken by adult players. They have them on all the social sites too!

You never used to play the undead pvp glitch. As for the rest of these updates, nothing to get me pumped up out of these updates. It is nice to see more clothing, but it means nothing really. The new cave is probably bland as well, just going to wait on something like the kraken or a grand catalog for weapons.
