A Sailing Idea to Stop the Passing of Maps

[mattp169]

This isn't an Utopian game, Matt.

Alts are made to farm resources off, GWs and to retrieve/pass maps too. If you can't see the damage caused by alts then there is no point arguing with you. Yes they will occur in all F2P games but they need to also curbed.

You might be a knight in shining armour but the vast majority don't notice or don't want their guild to be targeted too. Sorry not all servers are like server 1.

Look I aint stupid, I know how many alts there ar eon the servers. same way evony was. alts dont bother me at all. They are not the reason anything happens in this game except hitting the glass ceiling faster. I know what you can do with alts. But the reason things happen is not BECAUSE of alts. Curbing them, doing away with them, or doing anything about it is not going to really change anything.

People will find a way to annoy other people in any game where there is PvP with or without alts.

But you are right not all servers can be server 1. There can only be one best and server 1 is the best

HEHE what is so funny is Nyxhunter and her guild is getting ganged up on because her husband has been trying to bully people. Now she cries, yet her husband is doing the same thing. Too Funny. I will have to network so I can get more people to snag my maps. Karma sucks Nyx.

[NyxHunter]

Lol! You are a crybaby that hates being hit in the arena. He stole a chest from you after GW and you started a war on our guild. If you had any respect or cared one bit about your guild, you would of taken it out on him instead of dragging our guilds into it.

Your guild has been bullying the Bards for months! I'll be damned if I'm going to let you do the same thing to us. We aren't going to stop until you do. The only karma here is what you guys are getting. And you crying here only proves we are getting to you

[schmiddy]

I am sorry I didn't mean to hit a nerve, does somebody need a hug?

[NyxHunter]

Huh? ....no thank you

But I definitely think you need a box of tissues.

You said yourself you get 1-3 free maps a day. There is no real need to sink anyone but it happens.

Cutting it to two sink/steals a day is a viable solution. Stops the need for alts and the map swapping to sink others out of spite. If you think it's unfair than blame the multi accounters. They've started this and therefore we wouldn't have needed solutions to a problem we shouldn't have.

wrong again, i pointed out that the free map count was raised from 1 to 3, meaning everyone gets 3 free maps per day. so the game is actually designed to make you steal/plunder a map to do your 4th sail or try to squeeze it out of a guild chest.
therefore raising the free map count to 5 (1 of each 4 daily chests + 1 guild) would make it less interesting to steal maps.


ps: the available points from the dailies chests where raised from 100 to 130 to compensate for players getting sunk and not being able to claim the missing points from sailing/GW/banish

And its is. What I'm against is multiple map passing and sinking. You seem fixated on 4 sails a day and not to what myself and the OP is trying to explain. By limiting it to 2 sinks/steals you can still obtain your 4th map and redeem your other 3 maps throughout the day, can't you. If my math is correct that's 4 sails a day.



No. You are supposed to sink then sail, not pass it to another player or alt. If you think alts aren't damaging the game you need to take a good long look.

Yeah everyone has great ideas, only problem is in our server is the uber guild, who seem to think that actually claiming the free sails is a bad idea!
So between the whole guild they can potentially sink 36 other sailors per day. Which they do seem to attempt!

Which they then pass off to their alts, of which they have combined approximate total of
83 alts over 5 alt guilds. (this is the number of alt guilds that we know of)

All reported, with tickets, blah, blah blah.
And the reply???
It is all part of the game and you need to be prepared...TOS, more like B/S

p.s I am a grand total of 3,158,698 in power, and am regularly sunk by somebody with OVER 900,000,000 in power....
maybe I am a threat to them??? SMH

I agree with placing the form from the Rankings is not a good idea at all.

[acesn8s69_4868706]

I agree with Matt and also feel the more you regulate, the less fun you have. Our sever currently has a no hit truce on for sailing. Anything on shore is fair game. Yet as taniwha said, we still have a few members several hundred million in power sinking ships with combined powers of less than half a mil. That is when we step in and police the seas ourselves. We sink those players every sail and pass those maps to small players that are not powerful enough to steal a map to get their 4th sail. The same goes for the guild we have always declaring WAR on someone. With being limited to 10 pvp fights, the sea is the only place to settle a battle of sorts. You pound them every sail possible, all day every day until they play nice again. Can't we all just get along.......

Wait, what? Pvp fights are limited to 10?
Morgan is spot on.
Speaking of god complex...did u guys notice both examples of why passing maps is good was in the name of Justice...dealt out by only a few who decided what it should be.
It's not a big issue on my main server. Someone did it for awhile, and got destroyed. It is, however, an issue. If one of our big dogs went rogue and started doing this...well, nobody would be safe. They don't, and most likely won't.
Stating that alts are a norm in ftp...this is the first game that I've seen them in...at least like this...we had a player with 4 alt guilds. Not in our guild, on our server. I never got that. The time it took to run 4 other guilds...dude coulda got a job, coined, n saved time and money. Some people will step over a dollar to pick up a nickel. Others are so close-minded they can't see logic and reason.

If you can't get your point across by sinking 4 ships/day, then you can't get your point across.

Some people have seen that spending real money on a game as not a wise way to spend. Therefore they have supplemented by using alts. It is not a bad strategy, even if not allowed. I think part of the problem is the game doesn't provide enough to grow accts on without doing something and a lot of people just won't spend their life savings on it. Perhaps the greed Tynon has here for gems is in a funny way their own undoing.

If they overregulate any more I would have to declare this game neither free nor a wargame. It would be an event game, very limited at that. I still think that robbing maps and sinking IS the intention of Tynon on Pirates, as stated in the instruction on the right side of the screen. therefore not against TOS.
