Yes, I know, I was pointing to a site where jadedstatik could contact a Founder.

well... im still playing... and im an original founder <=I i faced the same problem i felt so bad when i came back.. i had one of the biggest guilds back then... over the past 3 months NONE have gotten on 250+ people...

I played since late January '08 and I used to see like 1 every 5 minutes but now I sadly only see a few every week or so. I'm afraid to say you are among the last. :(

i see a few founders out in svs alot. like you, ive returned after a couple year break, mastered all i could, all that was left was ship vs ship, or pirate vs pirate.

I was also a Beta Tester, the only thing is, I bought UA a week after the founder thing ended. I haven't quit since then so i guess I would have been one of them.

I'm a founder, but I havent played in quite some time(until recently). I play a number of MMOs but I still come back to POTCO from time to time just to enjoy the simple fun :)

I joined November 7th 2007 and did not receive membership status. Is that because of basic access?

Yes only unlimited members at that time recieved the founders status.

I did not find out about the game until the morning after, I missed being a Founder by about 6 hours. I completed the quests in about a week and had completely mastered all weapons and notoriety (except grenades) before the month was out. Then spent about 4-5 months waiting for the Boss Battle for the Pearl... still waiting for the second story line chapter lol

I've been paying so I don't lose my Founder's status, not sure if it goes away once you stop paying and then decide to pay again later. So, I still pop in from time to time and I'm now starting to get back into it. For any of those old Founders out there, you should come back as it's improved a lot since then.

I haven't ran into one yet this week besides myself ;).

I only play live when test is down. However, I play on test almost daily. Ive had to delete a few pirates to keep playing tho. I have a second founder account that I havent paid to play on for a couple years now.

I have a friend that is a founder and has gone back and forth from unlimited to basic. You do lose your nice gold name and coin when you go basic but it does come right back when you go back to unlimited.

Still here mate name is as it is online Davy Helmhound

i am a founder and have seen less and less founders every year. i think alot have left because when you master all weapons and do all quests ther is not much left to do. just my opinion.

Me and the hubbs signed up in Nov of 07' been gone for awhile but hopfully comming back now.
