This is the first time I had to report a pirate
 

So I was playing the game and then I went AFK to make some lunch. I walk back to the computer and see this "pirate" standing really close behind me. At first I didn't think anything of it but then he turned to the side and then back towards me really close. He did this about 5 or 6 times. So I knew what he was doing. I got out of the AFK position and told him to stop, then he ran away. I reported him for rude behavor but it never gave me an option to explain what happened. How do they know he was being inappropriate? He never said anything on the chat. Do they have like a rewind button or something? But aside from that it just really makes me mad that he even did that. How sick does that man have to be to act out his sick fantsy in a GAME! What if I was a 12 year old playing this game and he did that. Hopefully a 12 yr old wouldn't connect the dots on what he was doing, but still. I don't take too kindly to sick people like that. Especially when there are so many minors in this game. :EnemyBullet:
On a related note...do y'all get asked a billion times a day if "you will be my bf/gf"? I don't understand that either. I have a bf in real life...why would I want a bf in the game to annoy me as well? lol but either way it's just a game...a game...why do u need anything besides friendship in a game? lol ok I'm done ranting now. thanx lol :SkullBullet1:

Yeah, I have heard of people complaining about those stuff for a while. It really is sad that people do stuff like that. Mostly, it happens on the Abassa server. So, unless you have a good reason to go there, I'd stay away.

If I have to/feel the need to report, I report people regardless of whether or not they've said something in chat. (Inappropriate actions and glitchers alike.) I've no idea if they can see what the person was doing or not, but I figure reporting is the best way to at least give Disney a head's up that there was 'something' happening.

When a male pirate gets too close to me, I usually tell them to stop and back away from them. I find that switching servers or islands gets rid of the guy who wants to be close. The only time I report somebody is if they are saying inappropriate things to me. Of course, I report people if they are swearing or speedchat plus swearing.
I am so tired of people begging to have a gf/bf. I don't want a virtual bf. I sometimes say that some random guy is my boyfriend to make them go away.

Let me guess you were in Abassa? Thats pervs for you.

Sometimes girls hit on me, and its really annoying. i politly tell them, i'm not look for a bf/gf. i dont believe in the stuff in-game. And what that guy did to you... well, i'm sure parents haven't let there kids play the game because of that stuff.

sadly this is an ingame reality that will probably never go away. This is why I avoid Abassa, Andaba, and other full servers. And yes I have experienced the annoying boyfriend girlfriend thing. I suppose it is ok if u knew the person ingame for two years and liked them if you really want to, but overall, i think it is stupid and also the online "bad people."

I luckily haven't seen many perverts which is good... I don't really want to either. It would be nice if when you reported someone, the moderators could view what happened from the screen of both the person who was reported, and the person who did the reporting, so they could get a clear understanding of what happened. Yes, it would be a lot of work, but it would pay off.

Wow, I've been hit on by a lot of girls. I usually just tell them I'm not looking for a girlfriend. Especially one that doesn't care who she gets. If she is ready to accept anyone, then she is definitely not someone I want. POTCO IS NOT A DATING SERVICE! If you want a bf/gf so bad go on a dating website...

Well the best thing to say them is your a cartoon and avatars are just that and u r hindinding behind the mask fasad so take a good look in the mirror that is the real u so get on ur horse and be gone
This get rid of them for me if that dont work i just say potco would love to see this, then the really leave try it it works.:psmiley27:

lol yea I think I was in abassa. I just did that random server thing though. I never even got a "hey we recieved your report" email from them. I don't know if they do that but it would make sense. Now I personally don't care about foul language cuz I curse like a sailor myself. But I know when and where to do it and I'm good at watching what I say around kids. I get so annoyed of ppl always asking to be my bf. One time I was in a really bad mood and someone asked that, I was so rude to him. Usually I just say "sorry I don't do online bfs" but this kid I was mean, I kind of felt bad afterwards lol. My favorite is when they say "omg ur so beautiful" I'm like...u dunno what I look like....this is an avatar.....I dont look like this. My pirate has a tattoo on her face. I have tatts but not on my face lol But these are the people that are gonna be sitting down with Chris Hanson in a few years lol.

These are the reasons I try to go afk in buildings or water.

You can report individuals using the help tab at the web site and using one of the feedback forms there as well. Or even live chat...just make a note of the server, time, place, activity that occurred and the pirate name, rank, and guild, unlimited or basic...heck take a screenshot or two. I would use the report tab on their pirate card first, and followup with feedback. Ones on site get better responses. Some of these guys are making videos and posting them...so do what ya need to do.

I may have friendships on POTCO, but I don't want anything more than that. I can't stand how people just walk up to the "pretty" girls and start acting that way around them. I mean, this is not a dating site for goodness sake! :pirate2:

This is the first time i had to report a pirate
 

This has happened to me a number of times and i told the male pirate at the time to knock it off! Then took a screenshot andtold him that i did and was reporting him. It is happening on all servers. Know what nothing is happening! i sent a email to disney with several issues that i had in the game and also mentioned the naughty pirates,they personally addressed the game issues but said nothing about the rest.
my advice is this send disney a email and maybe they will realize how serious this really is.
I also started a thread months ago on When did potco become a dating service.Within several months there were Almost 1700 views. Know what it got moved to the Pirates Parley section where they send posts to die while this section which is where i
put it has posts from2008. Molly Mcsilver

I hear you Molly...its frustrating when you don't get a response or it seems nothing was done. In my case, a couple of the perps told me in game they had been banned/suspended...one for 24 hours and the other got three days. I had never heard back from Disney on them either. One had posted a video on u tube of him and a couple of speed chat kids..their chat log on the pics showed them giving him info in speedchat lingo...so I had sent Disney the link to that. Guess that kind of thing gives them bad press tho so is probably why the guy got the three days..should have been isp banned in my opinion. But, my point is...don't not report just cause we think Disney is not listening...someone there might.
