To improve server-side performance the removed the concept of personal space.

The correct fix, is to make the PERSONAL SPACE logic simply be client-side.

Attacking valid features instead, is pure malice...the current programming team must intentionally be TRYING to kill POTCO faster, to drive people to free games faster. Kinda like making lava stop flowing, or intentionally making skies ugly (yet never adding rain.)

As they say on some other forums when you agree with someone... THIS.

Ya but Coin is the ONLY "cool-kid" emote for guys. girls have primp but we r left with sleep glare hips and dance. id like POTCO to rid of primp. see how u like pplz.

[Tiberius Fireskull]

Getting rid of /coin is the biggest mistake they have made yet... its like getting rid of something perfect...

You never used to play the undead pvp glitch. As for the rest of these updates, nothing to get me pumped up out of these updates. It is nice to see more clothing, but it means nothing really. The new cave is probably bland as well, just going to wait on something like the kraken or a grand catalog for weapons.

[MacIronhawk]

Honestly, I sold all of my old cloths and bought the new, purple clothing. I have to say, it's pretty dang amazing. And to think, new clothing monthly!

I wonder if this means you can only buy that set of clothing that month during that year? I sure hope not, and that five years from now we can go back to Jan 2011 and buy the clothing released then.

[Nelly Darkpaine]

Agreed - coin was the best emote. Every other 'static' emote is lame. I HATE primp.

I'm confused! u say its the best emote yet its wone of the lesser ones?

[Eliza Creststeel]

I totally agree on the bad emote/screenshot issue. It's disney's own fault for removing the personal zone around the pirate. I have stranger guy pirates all the time get WAAAAY to close cuz they want to get all snuggly for a screen pic.

Folks can be pervs, they will find a way. Give us back COIN.

^ Strong words.... Maybe the coin is bugged? Like if your still repairing on a ship and you flip a coin, you flip a hammer.

[metal1081]

coin has always been bugged with the new stuff coming in.. repair glitch u would flip a hammer, seen some friends flip their cutlass and grenade lol.. still it's is pretty stupid that they took it away

[Davy Bluekidd]

I'm going to miss the coin emotion, but like Eliza said, people use emotions for "other" purposes.

[Speedway Master]

This thread has officially became the missing coin thread.

I'm more interested in the higher-leveled enemies.

Also, hooray for the Guildmaster transfer ability.

[titanic95594]

To me that GM tranfer thing is EXTREMELY risky.

It is, very.
My friend was toying with it and almost lost his GM status...
Very dangerous but useful.
Also, Speedway, I cannot seem to find the new higher level enemies, any luck on your end?
