Hey Skirata Clan, there will always been pirates coming and going from the game. Best thing you can do is try and make your guild fun to be in and keep your pirates interested.

I will freely admit I have only been on the game for only a year. I have yet to get my main pirate to lvl 50 fully mastered. I am not in any huge rush to do so. Some nights we lvl hard and some nights we talk and play. My main pirate has completed all but a couple of quests including the SVS ones. There are a couple I don't want to do right now. I don't feel like I am missing anything. Every time I get on there is something to do with me guildies. We help each other level and complete quests. Or just sail off and sink ships.

The level increases, the invasions and all the rest of the halloween content is really fun. I love the new ghost appearences and trying to figure that out as well. A ton of pirates have come back to the game because of the invasions. They have also been doing small game inprovements for months. The next storyline will come when it comes. I guess I am not worried about when it will come. I have plenty to do with me guildies and I really like the game!! Being lvl 50 fully mastered and all quests completed won't change that.

Some pirates do things differently. I know we had lvl 50 fully mastered pirates within the first week of it coming to live. Now some are complaining about having nothing to do again. So when the second storyline comes out and they blow through it in a week then what?

There are a lot of pirates that just want to beat the game. I know a lot of you have been waiting for almost 2 years for the new storyline. These kind of online games are not wired to be played like console games. There is much more emphasis on the social interaction between pirates. Guilds allow pirates with the same ideals to join together for help, fun and socialization. That is why it is so tough when guilds break down. It's like a family falling apart.

Wow, ok sorry for all that but that's how I feel. I really love POTCO as it is. Every time they add something its cool. I understand that there are pirates who are bored and have 4 lvl 50 pirates and nothing left to do. If they don't enjoy the game they are going to leave. Nothing you can do about that Skirata as it's thier decision to make. I think the majority of the pirates play for more than just content. I hope so at least, time will tell.
