Farewell spirit skull
 

i want everyone to know my best and even closer friend has quit the game :( :( :(
i miss her very much and any of you that know her i am afraid she has quit. she will be getting on the forums once and a while. :( i have seen a lot wrong with her so i hope she feels so much better after all she has been through.:cry:

Ahoy Mikey,

Perhaps Spiritskull will sail the high seas again some day.

Fair winds either way..

i wonder if this is the Spiritskull I know.....well bye Spirit. Hope to see you on POTCO some time again:)

Aye, it really sucks man, I had this friend named Snowdragon one day, next thing I knew, somebody was threatening me on his account. Probably his old guildmaster Crystal, can't link with people and trust them to keep your account safe or not, no matter how much you think you know them.

Well ..Fair winds Spirt :(

What can we say when a spirit moves on...

:( its sad because she has to quit to get away from everything. its really sad the way she had sound when she told me :(

Sorry to hear about Spirit Skull. I've seen her around POTCO a few times before and she seemed like a really nice person.
May fair winds find you, Spirit Skull.

Aye Ive heard of Spiritskull...sorry to see another mate go though :(
Fair winds Spirit, the POF crew will miss ya

bye spirit i hope you come back to the game and we will miss you we hope you will sail the high seas with us once again fair winds spirit :(

Aye, I heard she was going through a rough time a while back.
Fair Winds

Well Matey,

This be a game. Got to take things with a grain of salt.
Noone has to "quit" to get away from everything (unless the everything is computers/internet/games)
You can delete a pirate, and remake one anytime and start over in pirates.

If ye are having problems with friends in the game, then ye be keeping the wrong friends in the game...

Hope all is well.. but in this case circumstances can easily be avoided I think.

Hi i came to check up and i see your taking it hard mikey. sorry :( and i get away from game because of the people on it. people need to moderate the people on there better thats what is getting me mad... sorry i quit the game but im never getting it back. i just got sick of it!! i might check up later... bye

If this be true lass, your likely hanging out in the wrong places, with the wrong groups of people. I have played the game for months and although I have had issues occasionally with rude players its very seldom.

Now if one hangs out on Tortuga, on Abassa server, to be hanging with what they likely believe is the "in" crowd (lol just 'in' a crowd actually). Then you will find that because of the popularity and volume of activity, that you will find more griefers as well.

Anyone botherin you in the game, click them and report, and/or click ignore. There are definately not that many people causing grief as you make it sound.

You have your reasons for not playing though.... to each his (or her) own! But to blame the game like that, I believe is misplaced.

I doubt anything needs to be moderated. Seems quite draconian to me, not that I know what draconian means.

Zep. i dont mean to be rude but there are people who do alot on the game... more than you think.. i saw before a girl who had a huge emotional break down because of the game. i cant say why for it is against rules on the forums. sorry but its true that people dont ignore others they just start a fight to get more people to come up and cheer them on/ popularity. you may have not seen this but i sure have!!! plenty of times!!!!

Aye, back when i had nothing to do i went to Abassa for a time killer and i saw plenty of things i didn't awnt to see. meltdowns, arguements, the dreaded " I NEED A BF" or " I"M SINGLE". Lots of things happen on Abassa, and not all are good things.

It is an unfortunate part of 'social gaming' - it brings with it the real life side of realitity issues - and not all of them good...

Of course, though I cannot understand everyones issue in playing the game - all I can recommend is:

- Be sure to remove any of those people from your list first (if they are on your list)
- Use the Map Feature to teleport to another server (since they are removed they cannot locate / follow you)
- Play along for a bit by yourself, but if you need assistance a) come here and ask for it as many here are willing to help or b) if in game and someone comes along just ask if they can assist you for just a minute - if you say 'any assistance in helping me get 'x' would be great' it sounds more mature than 'help me! help me!' - most players stop and help someone then...

I have seen the bad and wierd side... and if I really needed company I chose an ideal server higher in the list (E and above) where I find more mature players hang out.

Best of luck :)

Kick their--no, now that's draconian! (Not that I know what draconian means..) Anyway, all that crud seems rather easy to avoid, so eh. It's not worth it to crack down on stuff like that when it can be avoided.

Aye, was just trying to help lass.
Every situation, and circumstance will have varied effects.
I can relate to some of what you say even.

Part of the social environment as Maximvs mentioned.
Keep yer chin up mateys!!!

I've been on for about 10 months now, and I've never had a problem with anyone in the game. Keep meself to meself :)

Spiritskull, you do what you feel you need to do. Feel free to take a break (even a permanent one if necessary) from the game if it's causing you anything but entertainment. Treat yourself as well as you can and do the things that are good for YOU.

The game and the forum will probably still be here if you ever want to come back. Ad if not, that's cool too. Nobody should feel miserable while playing a game, ESPECIALLY a Disney game!

You take care of yourself, SS. We'll see you if we see you.

Well spoken words by many here...if you need a break then do so...if you have to step away then do it...

I've been gaming far longer then so many on here...and in such time I've seen many things...from high moments to low...from happiness to sadness...yet despite it all I've always found tight knit groups/clans/teams/call them what you will...these being beyond just a random group thrown together and calling themselves a team...they're more like a real family...people who love gaming, socializing, yet not having to deal with the drama that some think or feel is neccessary to gaming...

There are many guilds and people just like these tight knit groups that I speak of on POTC...and any of them would be more then happy to help out a fellow Pirate who is tired of all the "kids" on Abassa who should be playing the SIMS since all they know is Dram-O-Rama...

DO what you have to that makes you feel good again...and remember that there are many here who wish the same as you...to enjoy friendships and have fun playing a game that lets you live the life of a Pirate...and I'm sure they would welcome you as a kindred spirit same as their own...

Fair winds to ye Spirit...

well only if you zep knew about everything on the game and what they do then why dont you list a couple things you have seen... :(.. bye people i wont be on anymore from now on but mikey will.. bye!!

sorry to hear that you are going........take care SpiritSkull

OFxZeppers, nobody could of explained it better then you did. You're absolutely 100% right. Spiritskull we all respect your decision, but if anyone in the game treats you badly, just report or ignore him/her. Just remember that "Ignore" is the most powerful weapon that anyone has when something or somone bothers you. Good luck in your endeavors.
