I've been playing Pirates for almost two years now, and I began only a few months after its release. Personally, I'd rather play with new members who are ecstatic and looking for adventure than old ones complaining about how terrible the game is. I was only pointing out if you don't want to waste your money playing a game that isn't worth it, you don't have to play it.
All players have an affect on Disney, and to say that Disney is to blame is selfish. Members who violated their terms of use by swearing and cursing introduced the Auto-ban feature; members who used linked accounts to get out of suspensions got them disabled. Disney has to ensure the welfare of all players, believe it or not - regardless of age. You KNOW new content is coming and on the way, then why demand more? As Nelly said this game does have potential and I see it, for example Roxanna beginning the Brethren Court and equal opportunity for all guilds who participate. Black Bart's Krewe retaining a true piracy mood within their guild. It's things like this that prove to me there's potential within the game, but the "wasted potential" I see is when newcomers join to insult and bash people for new reason using today's slang.
PvPing and Privateering have changed dramatically. People now jump with the usual Blades Only, No Tonics. Privateering is now using clever tricks to sink the enemies quicker. Pirates Online, in a way, had gone down hill, but it's the job of the players who began the game off to its start to retain that Pirate Mood.
