Please prove yourself right, first.

Toontown has gained over 50 million registered users since 2002. With only two to three servers a day that may not seem true, but it is. It's on the toontown fact sheet on the Disney web site.

First, we have no idea how many players make a full server. Second, there is no exact amount of players that Disney has given us for pirates online. We don't know the amount, and anyone claiming to be right is... well, of course lying.

I assumed it was millions because if toontown has over 50 million in 8 years, we can only assume the name "Pirates Online" has gained at least 2 million by now. How many are active right now? No one knows. That's impossible to know unless the POTCO staff gives us the recorded amount.

Please back yourself up with some satistics, straight from Disney themselves.

But the game is not going to die. The name itself brings in players, and once Disney gets their act together more players will be coming in. Just need a second story quest to keep us busy.
