Probably thinking about that feature in SWG. YOu can have some awesome events around weddings. Someday, I'll find those screenies of a story I wrote about it and all the bloodshed that ended up.

It was supposed to be all romantic and beautiful; people all over the server showed up for it. No one but the groom, myself, the Mayor doing the ceremonly knew it was going to be a bloody massacre with scored exes, a diseased prostitute and an angry wookiee.

People *still* talk about that wedding when they see me in-game.

1 in thread Nvidia beta 169.28 driver fixed all my problems [Known Issues / Troubleshooting]
Really? Nvidia was giving us their early speculations as to the flickering problem today, and it sounded like something they were going to take care of tomorrow, not something that was fixed in a beta driver.

I'm not sure at all. What I'm speculating is that you're using up more memory than you should on the open sea, and when the game detects that you're running out of memory, it's doing the video card reset. Can you attach your DXdiag here?

1 in thread Will My Video Card Not Work? [Known Issues / Troubleshooting]
Hi apeach,

Sorry, but no, we need what is essentially a discrete video card to run the game. If you have a regular PC, you can probably upgrade for a pretty reasonable amount of money, and it'll make your other games run better as well. If you have a laptop. then it's impossible to upgrade.

1 in thread Will you ever add the ability to sit? [Ask an FLS Developer!]
Yes, of course. There are all sorts of cool RP things we want to do, but we focused on the core game elements for release. I think, compared to most games, people are going to be a little amazed as to how quickly we add onto the game.

That's startlingly reasonable! For what it's worth, we have a number of elder game systems that we'll be implementing over this year. The idea was to create a solid foundation for the game, and then build on that.

To clear things up....

Whether something is an exploit or not is up to FLS to determine. This is why we want folks to fill out a support request. The Admin team isn't aware of every single item that could be construed an "exploit" which is one of the reasons why we say:

Do not discuss Exploits
Exploits in Pirates of the Burning Sea should be reported via the Support Website not the forums.


That means, no discussions of exploits, whether they are or not.

If it's not an exploit and folks are just name-calling, then this applies:

No Flaming
While debate and discussion are encouraged, we will not tolerate rude or insulting posts, personal attacks or inflammatory posts of any kind.


Either way, they both apply as it's discussing an exploit (valid or not) or you're insulting someone. These items are both against the PotBS Community Rules.

Since this thread is going further into the no-win zone, we'll just close it out with a reminder for you to review the policies.

Thanks for your attention.

1 in thread Hiring Sail & Flag Designer on Rackham! [North America]
I believe if you check Rutger's Flag and Sail shoppe! he's got some flags for sale. You could discuss hiring him or someone else here to design for you.
