This is not factual, and an assumption you have made, based on.. well I dont know what it was based on to be honest. Because its a Disney game?

If the game was made specifically for anything, it was made specifically for FAMILY. If it were made for kids, they would have had to remove alot of the content already in the game as some of the subject matter is not kid friendly. Think about it...

Who promotes gambling playing blackjack and poker to kids?
Who promotes kids making rum?

Have you taken a close look at the 'toons' in this game? Ever watch a girl pirates hips when they walk in the game? Have you read into the 100's of lines of story the slight innuedos suggesting adult subjects? (the thing here, is alot of kids just dont get them)

No, this is NOT designed strictly for kids.


No, sorry, you want a game made for kids that adults do play, try ToonTown.

Seems obvious to me that POTCO was designed to be enjoyed by the whole family. Adults that want to converse their adult talk while playing the game arent being adult enough to obtain easy to find alternatives that can work WITH the game (ie alternate chat/voice systems) allowing them to control their own communicative content.

Many guilds use voice servers these days, and they are cheaper than the game itself. Anyway, adult only servers just creates more logistic problems. I for one have younger friends I would like to continue to play with, and im sure there are many adult players that are in the same situation. We wouldnt want to have to make the choice of playing with our adult friends, or playing with our youthful friends. This also would simply encourage younger players to LIE about their ages, which already takes place as it is. No, adult only servers sound good to many, but it really hasnt been thought out by those that want them. If you want pursue adult behavior in your online gaming, play a game that allows it, and not a family based game.

Might as well start signing petitions for them to reshoot, and release an R/NC-17/X rated version of Pirates of the Caribbean movies... lol which makes no sense.
