"Jumping" in PvP

You've got it exactly right Rackat. Unfortunately, although this is how it is, I think (almost) everyone would agree that it SHOULDN'T be this way. PvP and especially SvS should be areas of the game that people enjoy and are excited about, but unfortunately the constant glitching puts a damper on them. And people like me, well, we just PvP and SvS, sometimes winning, sometimes losing, but always just trying to make the best of whatever predicament we happen to be in at the present time.

2 pirates fighting one another is fun. but using unnatural causes of the game to your advantage, ISNT. you can call it whatever you want, but either way, jumping is unfair, and should be fixed immediately

yes, but not everybody knows how to jump. a jumper should stop jumping if a person who doesnt know how asks them to regardless

I had the same thing happen to me Kraken. When I quit trying to fight, the little guy pounded me with insults. It upset me, I'm not gonna lie, but there's nothing we can do at this point. (except post about it on POF)

I also agree with your points, regardless of whether you consider it a glitch or a bad design, it certainly needs to be fixed. And if all the jumpers would actually stop jumping when asked to, I personally wouldn't find it to be much of an issue.
