To Rackat:

I think this has went a little sideways. You have been very informative and have great insight to the game and how it's supposed to be played. I've enjoyed your postings and would be dissapointed if you were not posting on the boards anymore. Hopefully this has been cleared up and yo continue to give you insight, so that new pirates will learn how to play the game correctly.

To the Mods:

Continue doing the great thankless job that you do. We all appreciate the insight that each of you bring to this forum. Sometimes it takes an instance like this to make the forums a stronger place.

This is just my opinion and you can take it for what it is worth!

Yet you posted.....that you learned something. Perhaps it was not a total waste of your time?

And, perhaps I over reacted to having one of my posts edited for "Trolling". But that is only because I put Trolls just slightly below cheaters. As an aside, it is not mandatory for you to reply to a particular thread. But thanks for sharing your opinion.

Agreed on all accounts.

It gives a bit of insight into what goes on in the Forums everyday from both a poster and a moderators perspective: Its a place to share stories, get out fustrations, and enhances the world which is PotC - all the while showing the interactions of persons and what it takes to make sure everyone gets a 'fair shake' and keep order 'in-ta-house'.

Its an extension of the game which is what it should accomplish, and why many of us show up to read messages every day. We all love playing in a world which we get to leave Real Live behind for a short time and have 'a pirates life for me'

And I Edited my Edit Line to include *washy* hehe
Indeed.

washy it is!

Well like others here, I have been around to long on these type of boards. In general I would say its pretty lax here, from other places I have seen in the past. Don't know if any of my posts have been altered, I don't think so, but some have been I am sure right to the point of walking the fine line.

Been tempted to list a number of ships myself a few times. Probably due to frustration of games like this that basically rewards the cheats. This game is heading to the dumpster is likely what most are really most irritated with.

With lack of a tech team that can do anything. Things turn towards beckoning to the cheats with rewards. Its sad and what has brought down so many other past games, but seems to be the tendencies. It can't be unexpected, soon as testing came out I wasn't even on the test server and listed some of the things that would be a problem if it wasn't dealt with. Such as walking off a ship, using grenades or something, which apparently has been discovered and being used with dolls now. Graphic issues, let alone new things like the healing issues.

I just find it hard to believe something is tested for so long and is released in such a mess. Specially when most the cheats were found in such a short time when it went live.

Guess those that are going to participate in this event can always do what they do, run and dock if someone solo comes near their slightly damaged crewed ship, haha.
