Again - we obviously have a diffrerence of opinion on this.

I have been playing quite awhile and my main has completed most of the quests (still need top staff). I do quests when I feel like it, I have no desire to rush. That's not what the game is about for me and a lot of other pirates here. For you to claim "Most" feel this way is ludicrous. I see the same 5 or 6 pirates doing most of the complaining. Like I said we get it - you are tired of waiting - well I am tired of hearing about it. We both have the same right to post here. I like the game just fine as it is and I am enjoying all the new stuff going on. I am having fun mate!

Greengene I know when the new level cap came out you were lvl 50/mastered in days. So when the new content comes out and you blaze through that in weeks you will be right back where you are now. Ask yerself why you play the game? I disagree that all your negative posting is healthy for the rest of us. It may help you vent and give a chance for others who feel as you do to do the same. I will give you that. Again, do it in a separate thread so you can all vent together without stamping over the rest of us who are having a good time.

The Storyline is advancing - first rumors of ETIC doing stuff in Port Royal. Port Royal is remade then the other 2 cities as well. Then rumors of them doing diggings and we get new cave systems. Rott and his crew provide new quests and as a result we now have Jolly Roger and his invasions. Then there is the all the fun with the Ghosts!! Now the call to reduce thier numbers has gone out and the story will continue. The whole time we have had Grog Blogs and GM events to support all this. I will tell you it is awesome the way the Disney GM's do this. Most online games you are lucky to see a GM let alone have them participate at this level. This is the new storyline and it will continue to evolve until the new quests and weapons open up.

You are not going to change my mind and I am not going to change yours. We are both looking for different things out of POTCO. I am sorry that you and the others can't enjoy the game for what it is now. I will continue to play the game and I don't care if the Kraken ever comes. I would love to see it for sure, but it's not why I am here.

Cheers to the lot of you. I respect your opinion as I hope you will respect mine. It's just different. I think we have all made our points and should move on.

I'm not exactly saying all of what everyone else is.For the record this year has had more updates than any other time I can remember.I typically am not complaining completely ,just thinking about ideas and such.(I'm known by many people I know to just overthink and debate ideas a lot. )(not saying that you accused me, just curious if i'm on the list of complainers)It just seems a lot of people have gotten too used to things,a break from the game sometimes does the job.You see when I came back from my away time I actually made friends for the first time on the game.Then I leveled my weapons to 7 ,which is still my cap untill I get Unlimited.Time with friends is very good too these days.What seperates my old time from now must be no quests and newness in the game.But that is normal.One big highlight of this month is those invasions.Very good idea , best since first story chapter.It looks like there going to expand that into Tortuga soon.I'm going to be frank , both 'sides' here have legediamte points.Complaining isn't a good thing.Throwing things into complete groups probably is not either.There are many points that can be brought up to peer into the truth of the matter but those may not get thought of.I'm having a pretty good time right now, and I have not yet ,since before SvS , had Unlimited except on the previews.One factor is sceen-clips, not many more down the road from begining of Pearl Quest that I know of,but thats my opinion that I like those.I don't like killing the same enemy on land for an hour , but sailing wears less for me and can carry friends.Some people can get bored quicker than others.Thats a matter of the personality partailly but also ones 'feel of things'.Places in the game don't always have the same feel the more time you spend sometimes.Please forgive my rant but as I said before i'm an almost ceseless thinker.Another point is that some don't like certain updates ,and some just do.If anyone wants to not argue ,yet explore situations and ideas we could open a topic on the General Game talk or Pirates Parlay (Ranter) subforums if there needs to be disscusion.But none , including me , should come planning on starting trouble if possible!
