Are you guys trying to tell me that Disney wants this place to be a secret society or something? Why not send URLs? What is the big deal? It's a Disney site, for Poseidon's sake! What is more Family Friendly than Disney?

I am one confused scallywag....I never in a million years would think that sending my friends a URL to this wonderful game woud be a bannable offense. In my world, bannable offenses are things like saying 'adult' words, stalking players, harrasment...you know, real bad stuff. Not trying to share a fantastic game with your friends (all of whom are over 21, just so I permanently date myself. LOL)

Then again, maybe I misunderstood and jumped the gun (hey it happens. lol). So please enlighten me...why are we not supposed to send our friends URLs of this forum or the game? Is ther some logical reason or is it "Just because the Mouse said not to."?

You are not to give out any info that may be construed as personal info. Anything with a dot com addy could be potentially a bannable offense. Saying the word Yahoo messenger will also get you banned. MSN, AOL, Yahoo, E-mail, .com etc...those will all have your chat log looked at and potentially suspended.

A flaw in your question is giving people in the game the url for the game. Why would they need it? :)

I agree that it would be nice to be able to send people HERE openly. On the other hand I've shared with some of my RL friends/guildies/wife and they haven't joined.

I think he means the URL for this site while in game play.

I've just decided I wanna work for the Disney POTC censors.

You will never be able to use the word "banana" again. Fear me.

FWIW I have told at least a dozen ppl to "just search for pirates online forums on Google," and I've never been spanked with the ban paddle.

What really burns is Diensy encouraged the making of Pirate Guild Websites by supplying a Web Designers Kit (with Banner, Coins, Backgrounds and the like) then once you have it done you can't tell anyone about it... its like they almost set you up for a Ban in that one... :)

Hehehe! Very good point...though I still understand why they would want to enforce these rules (think of the childeren!)...but it is pretty darn contradicting of them to encourage and support fan sites with the kits. :laughks2: I dunno...it's all a bit wishy-washy. I did a google search for "Lucrecia Merlose" and indeed this site was the only one mentioned. I'll just be sure to use the term "search engine" and not google since google does offer some self identification features (gmail) and I don't want to make the alarms go off at Big D HQ.
