"OK, here's what we're going to do. If we go into a PvP, invite another person to PvP, then hit escape, then go to SvS, find a crew, then hit F2, we'll give the people that figure all of this out unlimited ammo to cheat against the people who pay our salaries!"

Belief is a funny thing. What some people believe does not match what others believe. Do I think there is a second tier of "salary payers" above the pool of "unlimited access subscribers"? Yes, that I believe. Do I think people can "buy" the cheats somewhere? Yes I believe that too...the "glitches" in use are too prevalent to just be accidental.

I don't know about anyone else, but if I found that to be the case, I would no longer be a paid subscriber, nor would I even play on basic access. I believe that certain sets of code create "ghosts" in the machine that cause these issues and that when found, they will review the code to fix it. Have you sent in the steps to Disney to tell them about this?

Months ago, I sent in bug reports about the skeleton glitch. What actually got fixed was not the "disruption" caused on Tortuga/Abassa, but instead, the only good thing about it - the unusual appearance. At the same time, the ammo limit was irrationally chopped - inflating the need for infinite ammo.
Now, I'm asking the question (and asking it again) in the hopes that someone could provide a plausible explanation. I WANT to believe that there is no sinister motivation behind these things I see.
It only takes ONE time being sunk unfairly by an enemy ship, to get really upset about this. When you are sunk unfairly more than ten times as often as you are sunk fairly, the price of "Dr. Zeppers MC" increases. (C'mon - I was only going into SvS yesterday to check on something else!)
