Rudeness in SVSing

[Edward Edgemenace]

Rudeness pretty much defines SvS these days. (The "porting" cowardice bragged about above, being the least of it.) Why is the high bounty ship always hiding in the middle of nowhere? I rarely SvS now. Exploits + glitches + rudeness + lag-bombing + cowardice = typical SvS. Each time out, it takes less time to be reminded why it has become as giant an eyesore of POTCO, as PvP. No matter how many times I've reported glitchers, they always reappear the next time I'm in SvS. That's the way big-D wants it to be, so that's the way it will always be. Too bad, too...could have been the best part of the game.

I did not port out of cowardice but because of the constant rude comments for defending myself when i was attacked as soon as i set out. Sinking and losing the bounty and trying to get it back are part of the fun of SVS. I had already damaged the other ship down to almost nothing when they ran it wouldnt of mattered who got the last shot I would have gotten the bounty. I ported to shut them up and went right back out on the other side so they could have a chance to sink me if they could.

Good show, mate!

You would think disney would make it easier to report someone in a situation like this.
I guess not.

Those two facts were not at all clear in your previous post. Thanks for the clarification.

You'd think they would take action, when individual pirates are directly reported, over and over again by numerous other players. Since they don't, there's little point in facilitating reports they would continue to ignore.

With SvS one-hit-wonder, broken take cover, infinite take cover, god-mode, blinking, lag-bombing, infinite ammo all given as much free-rein as PvP instant desolation, distance attuning, jumping, etc., SvS is as bad as PvP.

The competitive/playful banter and goading of several months ago, is gone. Now, your crew either knows the glitches or they don't. If they do, the crew gets so bored, there is nothing left to do, but devise the most vicious comments they can get away with. When it's a gang of teen-agers, it predictably is quite raw. When they have top bounty and hide for hours at a time, (while glitched, no less,) they demonstrate cowardice beyond description. Their boredom from all that hiding and therefore their rudeness, while not excusable, is almost understandable.

I ran into another cheat last night you guys may have seen but new to me.Had a lite sloop dropping cannon fire on me turned and blasted and he ran(of course) no problem so far. I went after him figuring on catching him and sending him to Davy Jones.He headed straight for an island and my thought was--got him--that was till he glitched into the island and my broadsides fell on earth.He was still in game still on compass and completely safe.
