And there's the rub!

Who deteremines what RANKING means? Leveling your pirate up? or claiming a spot on the top 100 for yourself or your guild? And is it just for glitches such as the old KH invincibility glitch, or for simple wall hacks that let you behing the bar in the tavern? How about loading a ship with all four of your pirates so that one can gain crew bonus while the other 3 are AFK? or so that all 4 get credit for sinking the ships so your guild RANKS in the standings? How about macro users? or those who use an automated device so that they aren't even at the computer while it ranks for them?

Before you can make any punishments, the rules MUST BE better defined! Without definitons for these items, there can be no punishment or even true further discussion in this regard. Everything else is just venting your frustration.

Before they punish anyone they should get their act together and fix the bugs and glitches. It'd be such a waste of time for Disney to ban people for glitches that they can fix.

If anyone disagrees with me, I really want a complicated answer.

On a different note, using a macro can get you banned. Way back when, some people on toontown used a macro to train their doodles. These people never had to retrain their doodles. Data is saved automatically and is never reset by the POTCO devs. If you use a macro, eventually the POTCO staff will know about it. You really don't want to know what will happen if you use a macro to level up your pirate.

Well, of course they're going to ban someone using a macro; its a third party system. The user license agreements clearly states that third party systems are never allowed, and will result in immediate banning. If you use a computer function or software, they will have no mercy if you get caught. That means that cheat engines, macros, or maybe even the speed glitch can get you booted for good.
