e-mails. I have had friends in there also. If so - naturally only on an adult server.
I agree with almost everything you posted except this one.
Why would a family based game(thanks Zep) make an adult server?
Why would they let them do that? How do they know adults wont let their kids go on the adult server and people give them out email addresses?

Profanity is one thing I bet you'd hear on the adult server. Why would anyone in their right mind want to hear that horrible grammer? It's not cool, in fact it makes you sound very dumb and ignorant.

Giving out email and other information is more dangerous than you think. Spam mail, etc...
It's dangerous giving out that information.

Well i replied to this and used some sharp words, but no swearing or mocking.
Still ... it hasn't been approved so despite the words you use, maybe this will slip
through ... i will try to behave with some degree of patience.

First i find it funny that words like this can slip through while my reply (still not
approved and less sharp than yours) hasn't ... ?

Strange ... but an open question to moderators.

*****

Second ... i also find it funny the way you behave and ... that you use words like this:

when you at the same time state the fact that you prefer to be without this kind of words or behaviour - smiles :

Smile We all have rights ...

In my eyes / world we all have the same rights and are equally valuable in our
own way - what makes the difference is the conditions offered to us.

No individual has any right to take away rights from any other individual
if we look at it in an ultimate way.

Society do - (if we commit criminal actas or if we violate i.e. rules in online
games) - but that's another story.

So no i am not such a valuable person / vip or a person with such great ego that
i have any rights to violate rights to have an opinion - on the contrary ...

disagreements / reforms and changes mostly make the world and i.e. the
mechanisms of online games change. That's why any opinion is valuable.

Back to the "between us" topic. I don't necessarily find people behind profanities
dumb or ignorant - for them the reason is legal. I have the right to decide
wether i find it worth listening to - and if not, well the option is ignore.

I guess if an adult server could be implemented and function (in theory) i surely
hope that an ignore function will be optional. And if so - i won't have any problems
with profanities - i can simply press the switch button and place them and their
writings on ignore. To me it's actually really simple.

>>> P.S. By horrible grammer I mean profanity. I wasn't talking about your post so
sorry if you misunderstood. <<<

Yes i actually did. I wasn't hurt or hit, but your words was to me a bit out of line
even considering the people i now understand you were talking about.
I don't have any proof, but it is possible that even Albert Einstein has used rare
profanities when some mathematics didn't showed the wanted result.

Shakes hand ...

>>> I think if disney wanted to put in an adult server it would have been made already.
Like Zep told me, it's a family based game. I don't think disney would make something
ONLY for adults. <<<

THIS is the first argument that points in the right anti direction of having an adult
server.
If so ... yes - then we have a reason already served on a silver platter. Could very
well be true.

To me it has become less desirable since i found (thanks Sarah) a work-around
the info and sharing e-mails. I simply write:

Seek and u shall find: I am me pirates online forums

Profanities ... even on family server - ignore

I only now need one game option (then i have no desire for an adult server):
That i can boot / plank / auto teleport an unwanted and uncontrollable player
aboard and off my ship.

>>> I don't think disney would make something ONLY for adults. <<<

Well they make games and stuff solely for kids so as long as it is in a disney spirit
why not for adults.

The movie Fantasia was later considered only for adults - it scared kids.

But i guess we are all age 13 to them LOL.

Hmm i guess i have stated my opinion and probably don't have more to this.

Just going to point out(because I didn't fully understand what you ment. Sorry.) that yes people use profanity on POTCO.
Weather POTCO knows about it or not it has bee used.
I have seen people using the short forms of bad words and getting away with it if we aren't close enough to click on their pirate and report it.

The ignore button was put in the game for a good reason and I rarely have to use it but when there is a good reason I'll use it.

I don't like to here profanity in any sort of way(my opinion) and I do report people for using profanity in the game.
Adults should know better not to use it on an online game. Teenagers will either learn or they'll suffer the punishment once they get reported.

I WOULD agree to an adult server IF it was impossible to use bad language and give out personal information but....that wont happen soon.

I have reported the use of short form profanity and have gotten no reply and I don't think pirates will fix this soon or at any time. If they do then yes I think an adult server would be ok. I did say OK, meaning I would not like to see inappropriate things or see inappropriate things.
So, an adult server could be arranged but remember this is a family based game. I'm not saying I want an adult server but if we were going to get one I wouldn't go against it.
