Thank you, Basil.

I have to say, with some of the responses, I'm a little afraid of the test server right now. If the "old" testers are so against having the new ones there, its not going to be a very friendly place.

A very large group of my friends and I were lucky enough to get on, and have been playing on test this week. This is a group players with multiple high level pirates on open, including 5 guildmasters and several other officers. We're having fun (it is still a game) but more importantly, we are finding (and reporting) many issues. Since there are so many of us, and we are used to working together, we can test/recreate things easily, and level fast so that when new things come out, we will hopefully be able to test those as well.

I understand that many of the original testers feel cheated, perhaps because they had to wait for an invitation and we got in so easily, but as Basil said, with new things on the horizon, we'll need a lot of testers, and it sounds like not many are left. Yes, a lot of people have gotten in who will abuse it, but a lot of very diligent pirates got in as well. And yes, Disney will have weed through the ones who are not doing their job. But that does change the fact that they also got a lot of very good testers in this as well.
