If you'd like to argue about the semantics of the word "obscure" then perhaps we should do that elsewhere.

Plain, simple and clear: the new incorrect PLAY button is obscuring the space where we are supposed to be able to login.

Using an obscure, obtuse work around (visit a separate login page, then login, then exit the incorrect automatic game start using a bookmark, then start over under the community button) isn't just inconvenient. It is incorrect, particularly from a web design standpoint. It is also incorrect from a security standpoint. And it is incorrect from a usability standpoint.

lol, I would argue the semantics but you would never admit that you are wrong lol ...relax, I'm just playing...

"...where we are supposed to be able to log in"? Well, if you parse the present source code for the page, you can see that it is simply a link, not hiding the older flash module for log in. It appears that the web designers/web master have chosen to now send POTCO log ins to a log in page as opposed to doing it the old way. Watch what I do here:Thank you for letting us know you are late to using the new web interface at piratesonline.go.com.. ...lol, I kid, I kid - just playing around again.

Then you go on to talk about web design. And there I agree with you. It seems silly to change the log in, when the change adds steps and makes navigation more difficult. Will they ever correct/improve this? I am always hopeful, but my expectations aren't so high.

Which is why I try to roll with the changes... (queue REO Speedwagon )
