I have not checked this out yet - - but how does this impact your "player friend list"? (you know, the people you can play with no matter which pirate- on any account). My newest pirate is on a different, linked account and I have not bothered to make regular friends with my player friends with them because when I logged into my old account - and arrowed to my newest account - my player friends were there. Are they gonna be there when I log into my newest account? My player friends are like my best buds and I gonna be upset if I have to get them on my newest account's player / friend list. BTW, I have three unlimited accounts that I have been playing for - one for me, one for the kids, and one that the kids / I share. I will be submitting a complaint from all three accounts.
