Error code, site down..?

[Nickpf]

It works for me and I am on a wireless router (I have to use a router bc of my idiotic destop)

Hey Gang,...
Here is the latest with the glitch that has affected our whole family. No POCO for 4 days now,.... although we truly are understanding, we are bummed out with the lost momentum and excitement of the game. I'm sure we'll get it back and the Tecs are doing their best and working diligently (i hope) to fix this especially since we have 4 paying accounts for our kids under one umbrella account, mine.
All our accounts were locked up at connection with this weird error code of 347.

1) This went at first to a level 1 online support Technician,... they gave me advice of updating firmware and then opening specific ports
since my modem is both direct and wireless, this did not work,.. they also told me to disconnect any security software that may be disallowing access.
2) This went to a Sr. Developer for review,... no direct response except that he could not fix it and it is being sent up.
3) This went to the Pirates Engineering Team and now we wait,...

So,... well,.... it kind of stinks that this is taking so long, but they are courteous and seem to be trying.

I hope this post helps someone else facing simular problems.

We are having the exact same problem.

Three accounts, 3 laptops, wireless router. Going on for days now.

I was going to just cancel all the subscriptions, but maybe I'll wait and see what happens with yours.

Ok Gang,...
the game wide problem i was having is repaired, patches went this friday morning game wide.

I was down for 2 weeks. POTCO engineers were very gracefull with me and my family. The fixed my name,... no more generic "bill sunbowers" ,.. it's officially Achilles (as it was supposed to be)

i was able to transfer all my money from a temp account I made over to my main account so at least it wasn't a complete loss. ($8800.00 transfered)

Back playing and having fun,.. I was 10k from getting my War Galleon 2 weeks ago,...
I made it in one day plundering with a friend Xaphor,..
I got my War Galleon,.. the Silver Raptor..... WoooT! (i too feel accomplished)

Xaphor,......who,..btw,..
made level 40 on his noteriety !!! i was there,.. it was soo cool to see.


So,... hopefully locked up accounts with error code 347 is a thing of the past...

hope this helps all..

Thanks,.. yer mate and plundering Buddy,

Achilles
