I sure don't buy into this there are all these free accounts over payed. This is like telling your kids to go use a plastic bat, its a upgrade to wood bats. Bunts better, but hits no better at all in big hits, but why bunt better so it goes right to the pitcher for a easy out? Some of this sound familiar?

If I log on say three of my maxed characters well there are two linked accounts there. So right there is two basic accounts to 1, though I am playing all 40 level characters. Any unlimited account user that doesn't do this probably now or at least have a basic set up I would be surprised.

The point is really even not worth arguing one way or other, what matters is who is there when changes and such like this are disgusted. Two weekends in a row we saw GM's, there are pictures on the log on window you can go look at. Take a look at those that tags weren't removed, sure the heck wasn't 9 basic to 1 limited account.


So at GM's for both weekends and most the time not even seeing a single basic account there, I think it is a well founded assumption who was there and cares and wants changes.

So I am for something like this, but really not for many of the reasons I see here. 40's may be bored, but leaving these little boats laying around so some of these guys can race in there with big ships to try to get 800-1000 ships a day for their ranking has been absurd.

I think more the question is how will it be inter phased when using a basic account 10 and under, and a 40 level linked.


For those knowing whats going on, it takes half a day to reach level 10. Others may vary but I can't say this is something that's going to cause weeks, months or something that friends can't play together. Only one problem I have seen that a player would need help, and that would be at the point getting brigands. I believe this comes along around level 12 though if I remember, but many have trouble with that.

As of late when also visiting the GM's half the servers to those GM's had been removed. If we can't get on half these well they might as well be used.

Its been said in these forums numerous times that this game isnt your typical MMORG, and is designed for casual gamers, not necessarily hardcore constant hour gamers. Casual gamers dont get to level 10 in a day usually, may easily take a week.

Well, most of my friends do not play for hours on end a day on the computer, they ARE casual gamers. Saying it only takes half a day, is a stretch for most. And any of them that did get there that fast, only did so because I was helping them as a high level pirate. Those first 10 levels are when they need the MOST help (and not for sailing), this would just make it harder for low levels in general.

Even a few days without being able to play with your friends, will cause your new friends your trying to get interest in your game to give up.

As for the 90% non paying members, please forgive me folks for using the officially stated statistics, instead of member based opinion/heresay.
