The fact remains, that you took offense to a statement of fact. I understand, irrational people can take offense at anything. It is tough to admit you are wrong, especially when you are.

Disney promotes their game with clear admission of Easter eggs. Where THEY draw the line, is extraordinarily clear in their TOS and TOU.

http://piratesonline.go.com/#/help/faq_03.html#16

Or how about at http://piratesonline.go.com/#/game_i...e_life_01.html where, indeed, it says "...cheating will be encouraged which is very Jack Sparrow-like." That is, cheating within the context of the game.

I report glitches, particularly ones I find on test. Some (if not most) have gone years without being addressed. Some, instead of being fixed, are surreptitiously condoned (such as adding potions to the game that mimic the same effects.)

By your repeated personal attacks (against my general statements of fact) you do indeed implicate yourself, as one among those trying intentionally to obfuscate the issues. Shame on you.

Regardless, the fact remains that the broad majority here on POF either do not know the difference, or intentionally try to confuse the two.

Are we honestly going in an arguement over what is and what isn't considered glitching and hacking?

If you take advantage of the game for your own benefit, which may in turn affect the game if possible, then you can say its wrong, by any means. If you use harmless glitches to entertain yourself, like the Empty KH glitch (which is going to be done away with now that the gate at Kingshead on Test is open instead of a door,) then there shouldn't be a problem. Either way, cheating is cheating.

Yes, cheating in card games, which is card swapping. This has nothing else to do with cheating that was not intended by Disney, and therefore, can be accepted.

Again, does it make a difference? Not everybody is somebody who knows every single side of the technicalities of PotCO, including myself in a 100% complete sense. They are simply trying to express their opinion, that glitchers/hackers in PvP, or as I like to call, cheaters, should be punished.

Back on to the main topic - bottom line, using any means, whether naturally created without the intention of Disney in the game, or by outside means, should be discouraged. And I get what he is trying to say when he means "kids." Hes not necessarily saying only young ones are the cheaters, but instead, cheaters, of all ages, are "kids," or by a better word, "immature."

All I have to say is that this is now just a new feature to the game - I doubt it will EVER stop, and it will just seem like part of the game. I don't see how this could possibly end - I don't see how no one will be hacking the game for a single second - because there'll always be that ONE person on the Exubia server spamming Sweep on Gravediggers you need to start your POTCO journey.

Basically: Get used to it...

The former. Perhaps you do not understand the reason why. It was because I didn't want to take the time to refute your entire post. Perhaps my selective quoting gave you an easy way to not answer my valid question(s). Since you did not answer, I will more completely quote you then ask again since the unanswered question(s) bear repeating:

Where are you getting this whole "broad majority" information from? Is this some statement of fact? Where are you getting your facts from regarding what POF members think, feel, or understand. I would love to look over this information. Sounds to me like you are just making it up.

Perhaps the whole thing about me being someone who "can't read an entire sentence" was just you projecting your reading skills level? Perhaps the accusation of others obfuscating was, again, you projecting?

Quote:
On this thread alone, only 1 respondent indicated understanding of the difference between glitching and hacking, while about 18 posts made little or no distinction between glitching (OK with Disney) and hacking (not OK with Disney), which, to me, confirms the fact that "the broad majority of people here don't understand the difference".
lol, even with the additional posts since your initial claim of what people here understand and feel, it is still not a fact. The limited "data" you use may, to you, "confirm the fact." But that does not make it a fact nor confirm it as such. Misusing the word "fact" does not make your opinion a fact.

Thanks for reminding me, that the broad majority here, are not worth anyone's time. Particularly mine. Adieu.
I did no such thing as remind you of that. Once again you are wrong Edward. I think people on these forums are worth the time, that's why I read their posts and contribute when I can. kthxbye

Back to the OP

I don't know if you've guys noticed, but getting banned over a pvp game isn't worth it. Stop glitching.

Ive been trying to find ways to combat glitchers, but i can't really, besides glitching outside the area.
Seems like Disney should be doing more. Unfortunately, hacking/glitching is a part of just about every MMO I have been part of
