Wow, this got dug out of the basement Ok.... first, ya gotta know Jim a bit before going on with one of his posts... you gotta read more in-depth than the surface.

Jim has a valid point - and you need to read other posts to put it together. If you and I (which I am no means innocent, I don't use glitches often, but do know a few and have used them) proceed to use glitches and others don't / do not get the chance to - the value of what they pay for vs. what we pay - is - different.

If for example we lose a weapon ability tomorrow and it becomes harder because of it - is this fair? What if only 1/2 the people lose the ability - and you are on the losing half... now do you complain?

There is a value - its just deeper to realise than just 'looking at using a glitch'

The vast majority of them out there have not nor will ever come into contact with you when you are playing. The other thing is, there's no contest or big prize to win from the company for lvling up fast so what really is the issue here?

Well posts in this thread answer this - those using such glitches are Leveling Gernades at a much faster rate than what was intended - and then using that as an advantage in PvP. this lowers the Quality of PvP now because those who don't get to know / use glitches don't get the same value for their time.

If anything the ppl in a rush to lvl up are the ppl in a rush to sit around and twiddle their thumbs unless they have PVP in mind. To each their own. If someone wants to glitch and it is not affecting me, who cares. Once you have finished the story and side quests, what else is there to do but find glitches to entertain yourself?

Agreed... ONCE you finish then Glitches are an entertaining way to amuse the time. And I agree, if the glitch isn't directly affecting me I usually just go on my way. Jim's point though is that it 'undermines the value' many pay / will be paying in the future... that is the unfair part - it hurts your wallet

Sure you can start another pirate. The repetition gets boring tho. I finished my first pirate the hard way. I'll be the first to admit to being in a rush and a major glitch user for my second, and that's only because I want to PVP her and have my skills allocations all mapped out. The sooner she's finished the sooner I can PVP with her and have some fun until the next story chapter comes out.

So now you admit to the true purpose - to also take advantage of PvP like others have... see? This is why I and many others don't play.

Now its a catch-22... because if you don't do it your at a dis-advantage in PvP because other have now done it and its the only way to 'keep up', but if you DO do it then you become one of the one to 'keep up to' LOL So do I have any 'negatative' reaction to you doing this? No. Because to enjoy that aspect of the game (PvP) your only doing whats needed to be competitive - but it is unfortunate that you have to do so.

What diff does it make if the skill comes from glitch training or regular training. In the end I'll still have the same skills either way. If they allowed you to reallocate your skill points, I would just do it with the first and not bother with any additional pirates.

Time... its all about the time - not just in-game, but paying out of pocket If you glitch and take 1 month to max, and I dont glitch and take two... I just got ripped off a month (hence - the value of my gaming experience goes down...)

I have played hide n seek in the empty kings glitch more times than I can count. I'm not gaining rep. I'm not stopping you from gaining rep or anything else so why should I be penalized for that. All I'm doing is hiding waiting to be found.

If the thread was 'Using Glitches to play Hide-n-Seek...' this would be a different thread

Good luck in your pursuit of prosecution without mercy. If I were Disney I'd just give you a full refund and send you on your way.

Well - they didn't have to. As I mentioned at the beginning... ya kinda dug this out of the basement, and Jim has moved on to bigger roles His points - though sometimes mixed in a 'sea of theroy' - are valid.

In this case, the bigger picture is required instead of just posting "glitches don't hurt you" - because directly they don't - but they do
