Going AFK?
 
I thought instead of having individual threads each time someone is going away for a while, we can just post in here.

Anyway, i'm headed to Europe tomorrow afternoon and won't be able to get back onto Pirates until I get back (mid august). I'll most likely miss the release of the PvPs.. :(

Have fun all! I'll miss you! :buds:

Sarah 07-08-2008 04:36 AM

Be Safe Davy! hmmmm, only three bottles, eh? Not Enough! Alright, because it's an emergency, my secret stash of rum is in the jail. Fourth brick up on the far right side. The brick has a tiny little "s" on it. Wiggle it lose with your dagger. Be Warned, if there are any bottles not replaced after the storm passes, I'll have yer head ;)

TDSChristy 09-12-2008 08:06 PM

Be safe Davy! Might want to pick up some snacks too while you are out. Need some salty munchies to go with the rum.:buds:

Basil Dreadflint 09-12-2008 08:19 PM

Davy,

Keep us informed! And straight rum gets boring, get some coke, and some Jack! It's always good to have an alternate plan. Stay safe! Wishing the best.

WB Karay! :)
Glad your safe :)

John Edgefoote 10-13-2008 01:42 PM

Afk
 
Hey guys - just wanted to drop in and say that I'm still alive, Real Life has just been REAL busy lately, precluding me getting to spend much time on-line. Slim and John will ride again, it just might be a while....so if you are moving on to a new pirate - give me a hint the next time I see ya, K?

Liv 10-15-2008 02:54 AM

The next few weeks will be very busy for me.... so i will not be on for that time.
I will try to find some spare time to come on (but it probably wont happen)!!!
Miss you all!!!

Basil Dreadflint 10-15-2008 03:46 AM

Hurry Back, LIV!!!!

lostmymarbles 10-24-2008 02:17 AM

Gonna be afk most of next week.. going to see the grandkids. Combine that with my usual work afk and you guys might think I'm sick.

Daughter doesn't have POTCO and is not really interested in getting it because she is very busy with her kids and their medical issues.

So have a good time...I'll be taking the babies to "Boo at the Zoo!!!" And giving them birthday presents.

Basil Dreadflint 10-24-2008 02:20 AM

Don't disappear for too long Kelly. We'll miss you!

Basil Dreadflint 11-11-2008 03:21 PM

While I'm not going fully AFK, I thought I should post here anyway. Over the next few weeks, you may not see me too often. I have a ton of work to do, my "hobby" farm needs to be winterized, and my day job is getting extremely busy.

I will be around as much as possible, but probably won't be getting half as much game time as normal. Once this hectic schedule calms down, I will get back to my normal Pirate schedule of sinking ships and defeating enemies, along with rum, dirt, and of course, CHAT.

If someone needs to contact me, just PM me here, or email me. I'll check often.
See you ingame, when I can be there!

Truehazzard 11-11-2008 06:29 PM

Awwww Daddy, we'll miss you! :(

TDSChristy 11-11-2008 06:53 PM

Booooooo, to busy work, but have fun playing with your vegetables. Bring us back some souvenirs. :buds:

mm1984 11-11-2008 09:28 PM

lol at Jade's post....see you whenever you're in game Basil, don't work too hard mate

Sarah 11-12-2008 01:24 AM

RL takes over...boo. Winterize quickly ;)

TDSChristy 11-17-2008 01:02 AM

Hey guys, Blue's folks are coming to visit, and will be staying a week. Not sure how much we will be able to get in the game. We will definitely be back next Sunday. Loot hard! .)

Sarah 11-17-2008 01:04 AM

Aw, come on Tandy, get em to make their own pirates and play along!

Have fun with the in-laws! ;)

davy redflint 11-17-2008 01:09 AM

aye teach em to be pirates too........lol have a good time

Basil Dreadflint 11-17-2008 09:48 PM

I always heard stories about people having trouble with their in-laws, ......

Have fun with the parents, Tandy and Blue, but get back in here!

Truehazzard 12-03-2008 02:08 PM

Thought I may as well post here, though, most of you have already figured it out. The Real World has been begging for more attention from me lately, (as if it hadn't already asked for enough), and unfortunatly, my time spent vacationing on Tortuga is the first that has to go, then the vacation time on the PDF volcano, and lastly, the vacation time on Jade's Box. Not sure when I will be able to re-enter the caribbean, hopefully not too long to where Daddy becomes senile and forgets that I exist, or jess has to "walk" circles instead of running them. I will miss you all in game, but will be in and out of the forums as often as I can.

davy redflint 12-03-2008 02:17 PM

aye u r miss jade ....fair winds and happy holidays ...seeya soon

TDSChristy 12-03-2008 07:06 PM

We will miss you Jaderkins. Take care, see you when things slow down.

Sarah 12-03-2008 08:13 PM

Aww, take care of that pesky real life....life. ;) We'll stow all carco crates and keep em safe for ya!

Christopher Trueshot 12-03-2008 09:10 PM

Hope to see ya back soon!

combatlizzy 12-03-2008 10:04 PM

Be safe Davy...never been thru hurricane but have been thru 3 floods...Mother Nature is MAD!

Angulique 12-03-2008 11:27 PM

Hey, everyone. I'm sure you all have noticed that I've been absent for a bit. Like Jess, real world stuff has swamped me! I've been so busy with projects and stuff; it's crazy. I keep meaning to pop in, but I haven't been able to find the time. I miss you all so much; you guys are really important to me and helped me keep my sanity (that term is relative *wink*) when my life was falling apart.

*hugs* I'll try to find time to get in game!!! Until then, know that I'm still here, I try to check the forums when I can, and that I'm thinking of you lot!

~Ange!

Jessica 12-04-2008 12:19 AM

Awwh, poor Ange. I miss you!!!!!! <3

Sarah 12-04-2008 12:49 AM

Alright, where's the RL Pause button?? Ange, I expect a full report on the projects, or a place to find the updates ;) At least you are giving me some time to refill the dirt stash.

Higs and rum Kisses! Leavin the porch light on for you all.

Basil Dreadflint 12-04-2008 01:18 AM

I had just about enough of this AFK stuff!

Jade and Ange, you two take care of the RL crud, and get your bums back in here!

We ALL miss you! And there are less places to distribute the *Mmmmmmm's.

Angel Bladerage 12-04-2008 02:22 AM

Jess and Mad...you will both be missed...hurry up and take care of that RL stuff. I know its horrible, going through some ruff stuff myself.

Basil, I will glad take over the extra MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM's:)

Basil Dreadflint 12-04-2008 05:25 AM

Greedy Wench!

lostmymarbles 12-04-2008 02:33 PM

Mary, Angel, and I will just have to step up to the plate and log in ALL our ladies so Purv can distribute his surplus Mmmmmmm's. (ooo have two pc's now.. can line up two ladies at once)

That being said.... Mary..permission to whine here? Jaaadddee.... Annngggee... I'll miss you.

Ange...Who will I discuss the causes Global Warming with?

Angel Bladerage 12-05-2008 01:13 AM

Yes I am a Greedy Wench....Likes to get as many MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM's as I possible can. :)

mm1984 12-07-2008 04:31 AM

:psmiley35:I guess it's time I hop on the AFK bandwagon and explain my absence of late. I've been in the clutches of a few term paper deadlines and finals, and will be until Tuesday the 9th. After that I hope to play more often. Maybe Bill will finally master after all.:piratewheelgo2:

FortuneRed 12-07-2008 11:02 PM

HI GUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUYS!!
Wow, talk about work consuming your life. *hugs game* I thought my subscription would have run out by now.. I guess not :)

Sarah 12-08-2008 01:06 AM

Basil Dreadflint 12-09-2008 02:31 PM

Davy,
Grats on the new job! Guess you won't be at the top of the leaderboards too often for awhile.


Arianrhod,
You have a wonderful holiday! Keep safe, and stay in touch when you can! We will be waiting for you to return, and pics, lots of pics!

davy redflint 12-24-2008 01:42 AM

TDSChristy 12-24-2008 02:25 AM

Aye, holidays! My mom is in town for another week so my POTC time will still be limited. She and I have been some shopping fools, too tired to even think about pirates when we get home. Tomorrow we all are hiking Diamond Head. Great view to see on Christmas Eve. :xshocked:Hope everybody has a great holiday. See you all when things settle back down.):xmascheers:

Basil Dreadflint 12-24-2008 02:31 AM

Yeah Davy, It's been pretty quiet. I was on for over an hour all by myself. And the other night, Mary and I were the only Dueces on for about 2 hours. Hope the Holidays are Great for everyone.

lostmymarbles 01-15-2009 12:51 PM

Mia
 
Sorry I have been MIA!! All PC related.

We have been trying to network our two PC's.. thought we had it Tuesday...after 3 separate 2 day tries since we got the router in Dec. But it did not work well .... made my quad core slower than anything I've had in ages.. and that was if it even made a connection.

Without the router, I could independently run the PC's but not at the same time.

But I have also had other connection issues with the new PC..lol..selective connection issues since we got it . It seems to not get along with POF specifically.

I get persistent HTTP 501/505 error and DNS lookup error messages. And I have spent way too much time with various customer service phone reps. So we have disconnected the router. My new PC is still selective and when I finally was able to get online to play last night.. I played on test and I kept getting bumpe off test almost exactly every 5 minutes.

So...I have hooked the old pc back up so I can at least post and play.

Don't know whether this is a Vista problem.. or a Nortons problem with the new pc. The old one is XP and McAfee. Have done so many reconfigurations, I just sick.

Hope to see you guys later on Thursday night..

TDSChristy 01-15-2009 07:57 PM

Awwww Kelly I feel your pain. Trouble shooting computers can make you homicidal. Once you get on I recommend some AFK pushing to relieve the stress..... oh and some rum!:buds:

Basil Dreadflint 01-15-2009 08:51 PM

Was just asking last night if anyone had seen you. Hurry and fix those things.

Angulique 01-27-2009 10:11 PM

I'm still alive! Just been busy ith real life like crazy! Got a new job, an AMAZING boyfriend and things are insane I love and miss you guys SO MUCH! I'll try to be back one of these days! *hugs to everyone!*

lostmymarbles 03-04-2009 12:50 AM

Gonna be AFK from my playable pc for a couple of nights. If you find one of my pirates roaming the Caribbean, it isn't really me. So don't expect the customary greetings... the gtot doesn't know how to chat or spell. (lol.. momma will be logging him in... I changed the password after he sold my war frigate)

Basil Dreadflint 03-04-2009 01:10 AM

So, how you gonna keep the gtot from selling the entire fleet? All you junior pirates, there may be some good deals on used War Ships the next few days. (Lars stands in line for a War Frigate!) Keep your eyes peeled for Kelly's pirates. They don't chat much, but they do sell War Ships CHEAP!

mm1984 03-04-2009 02:17 AM

davy redflint 03-10-2009 01:36 PM

AFK for the forseeable future
 
well guys, you won't be seeing me for a while. my computer crapped itself again, and until its fixed I have no access to the game.

clmay1305 04-16-2009 09:24 AM

You will be terribly missed. . .and anxiously await your return

:piratewheelgo2:

Maximvs 04-16-2009 12:35 PM

Awww Ari! Well lets hope it isn't too long....

Sarah 04-16-2009 12:41 PM

Rats Ari! Keep us updated and hurry back ;)

Basil Dreadflint 04-16-2009 12:42 PM

Hurry back to us.. We miss you already!

Aliese 04-16-2009 05:27 PM

Aw, that's terrible Ari. Hope you can get it fixed soon!


Darn inconsiderate computers...

MeesaArianrhod 04-17-2009 07:32 AM

last time something went wrong i didn't get it back for 3 months....hopefully it wont be the case this time

Basil Dreadflint 04-17-2009 12:51 PM

HEY!!! No 3 month vacations! I don't know if there is anything any of us can do about it, but if there is, let me know!

What seems to be the problem with it? Hardware or software?

Edit:
We missed Ickles on test last night.

Jessica 04-17-2009 02:06 PM

BOO! Fix it, fix it, fix it! =(

Aliese 04-17-2009 03:33 PM

I'm not planning on going AFK, but I thought I should mention the possibility. With the blizzard (have 1', expecting 3', but it's really heavy snow), we may lose power; neighbors already have.

So if I disappear, that's why. :)

MeesaArianrhod 04-18-2009 02:43 AM

I'm driving everyone crazy with my constant whinging "I want my puter back!!!" I put it into a local repair shop (bugger warranty jobs, I'd rather pay and have it back quickly) a couple of days ago. The guy told me he would have it done in a few days (we'll see...) so hopefully by Monday/Tuesday I'll have it back.
Seems I picked up a virus that corrupted one of the start up files, so my puter logs on when I turn it on, then logs me straight back out. Can't tell you much more than that because I know next to nothing about computers and how to fix them, hence why I sent it to an "expert" to be fixed. (this is also the reason why I become friends with tech-savvy ppl so they can fix it for me LOL)

MeesaArianrhod 04-21-2009 12:12 PM

latest word is I'm virused to the eyeballs. The repair guy said he could get the computer back to me by Wednesday (for you guys I guess its Tuesday...) hopefully. Not holding my breath though...

Jessica 04-21-2009 05:46 PM

I say stand over him with a whip until he's fixed it.

noooooo, he might like that too much and get distracted!

Richard Ironskull 05-04-2009 07:45 AM

Well I said this in game once, but I'll say it again. I am not going to be in game until May 8th because I am out of town and away from computers.

I will see you guys May 8th when I plan on playing all day.

See you soon Dueces!

Promote him to officer, and the first thing he does with the raise in his allowance is take a weeks vacation! You wouild think he would have at least restocked the RUM supply before he left!

He takes after me (I'm sure we all remember what happened right after I got promoted). :biggrin8:


See ya soon, Rich. :)

Jessica 05-04-2009 05:31 PM

Huh? What happened after you got promoted? DID YOU EAT MY TWIZZLERS?! I'll kill you!

BEHAVE! Here's $5, go get some more. But buy Nibs instead, they have better flavor.

No, I did not eat your Twizzlers. I prefer Red Vines. ;)

Lady Freckles 05-07-2009 04:11 AM

Hey Dueces,

Sierra and Tess won't be dozing off ingame for a while - my main computer decided to throw a hissy fit so I'm stuck using the old junky computer, the one I make the kids use!

I've tried various different things to get POTCO to run on this, but so far I've been rewarded with nothing but a giant freeze of everything.

Beat up a few critters and plunder well till I can get back to playing ...

Sarah 05-07-2009 04:54 AM

Rats LF. We will see you soon ;)

Jessica 05-07-2009 04:58 AM

Boooooo! Here's hoping for a speedy comp recovery. :buds:

lostmymarbles 05-07-2009 10:40 AM

I'm missing pushing you already, Tess!

Basil Dreadflint 05-07-2009 12:42 PM

hurry back.

Dang Disney for making an MMORPG that depends on cmputers to work.

Richard Ironskull 05-08-2009 05:34 PM

Haha, I did restock the rum! I left it with Jess...oh, bad idea.
