Although I do agree that their timing is a poor choice, this probably has to do with the recent influx of new players that have entered the game recently. On top of this, I saw a very rare occurrence a couple of days ago (a POTCO Commercial! Holy smokes!) so I would assume they want to reiterate this.

But yes, often times pirates fail to heed these words, which is a shame. Disney definitely needs to work on revamping the chat filters, because I find it silly pirates can say derogatory slang just fine, yet I can't say how much gold I got on a gold run without speaking in code.

I'm not sure how they would be able to fix the reporting system. I suppose they could add new categories such as Harassment and stuff like that, but at the same time we need to realize that the POTCO reporting system is chat based. If you report somebody for griefing a pirate, you're going to have a very hard time actually getting them banned if they didn't say anything to mark it down in the chat records. This is why I say that whenever an offensive action is taken against myself or a fellow pirate, I simply give the pirates a stern talking to and teleport away. I've learned by now it's better not to dwell with people who intelligence lacks so much they get amusement out of other's pain.... Did I say that?

We need info about new content at the same time too right?
I would much rather have them stall and make sure they get these updates right than rush to release the information about them.
