Just think about that. Honestly, I just hope that they CAN fix this bug. If they can't, well, I'm not sure what they'd do. Just be patient. Its best that they keep it closed for as long as it takes them to fix it, so that we can have a fun time playing later.
It may not be a big deal for you. However not all of us have a lot of money. I could definitely use some of what I've spent on something more essential than this.

I'm paying about $3.64 per day over a 182 day period. That adds up after awhile. Could be going in my gas tank or toward groceries.

How are you paying $3.64 a day? Even paying once a month (which is the most expensive payment) 3.64 x 30 = 109.2. Monthly payment is only $10, unless you have 10.9 accounts....

6 month subscription is $50.00

182 days/50 = 3.64


Anyways, Since they are extending everyone seven days I'd say that is fair compensation.

Wow. Guys. Calm down. Please.

I dislike having to say this, but you guys are overreacting. If you can't go without Pirates for a few days without being entirely bored, you've become WAY too addicted. Your life is centering around being able to play Pirates. It's not good. It's very bad.

Me? I'm slightly unhappy I can't play. But you know something? I found other things to do. I'm playing Pixie Hollow. I'm going to go read a good book. I'll go watch POTC movies, listen to POTC music, rearrange my swimming trophy shelf. Find something productive to do while you wait. Actually, Pirates is up at the moment with the note that we might have disco issues. It's better than not having Pirates at all.

When POTC has fixed all these nasty little bugs, Pirates will be fine for another few months. This is just a buggy few weeks. Your patience will be rewarded

It should be $50/182 days= 0.27/day.
since 3.64 (a day) x 182 days = $662.48 (per 6 months) not $50 per 6 months, which was what you said you paid.

Regardless, money is money.

That's not even the point. It's the principal of the matter.

What I found ludicrous was this:

Two members who were booted for being inactive yesterday were gone, AFTER new members were guilded. They were unnaffected and not brought back to the guild through the reset.
HOWEVER.

The 4 members who were guilded AFTER the two members were booted were lost in the reset. We now only have contact with one of them, and have no way of getting our lost guildies back to their home.

The few promotions AFTER were also unaffected.

This is highly frustrating and I hope Disney can/ is working restore guild members who recently lost their new home.

^ As do I. We all know that recruiting can be boring at times, and to lose those members in a mistake by Disney is quite irritating. Its like you wasted your time, aye? Best thing to do is just to wait and see how this turns out.

And thank you Leo, I also think that we should support them. Just let them take our time. If you think about it, a big reason we are all so frustrated is probably because we have been playing so much, that when the game goes away, we are lost without it. Go and take a break, get some fresh air, eat some food (thats what I'll be doing...). Perhaps this is a good time for us all to take a break.

Mates! I have good news! Pirates Online is back up and when I logged on I wasn't lvl zero I didn't see anybody else a lvl zero either. And then I tried defeating an enemy I did in Fort Dundee I got rep! I think Disney fixed it. But the bad part is, the stuff you guys did on Friday Night seemed like it didn't happen at all. That is the down part. We have to restart. and hopefully the bug is fully fixed guys. After about 15 hours of waiting! Phew! Well, I gotta go off to bed and cya mates tomorrow.

I saw zero level pirates when I got on tonight. So i knew it was not alll the way fixed. So I wasnt surprised when at 1:05am Sunday we got booted off. They gave us a 5 minute warning but pulled the plug at about 2 minutes. I hope it wont take all day sunday to get it up and running. I suspect that it wont take long now. I have my fingers crossed. It was good to see my level back and all my gold, weapons and inventory in tact.

Sorry to squash it, but it's down again. They even counted down the minutes for us. One. By. One. If I lose the pretty 'lil Valentine's shirt I got as they told me this, I'm going to be one unhappy pirate, especially as I haven't had the chance to get on in DAYS....

Ugh! I've been playing Mario for the whole day, and I've beat the whole game waiting for this. I just paid for this month and now I feel like I'm getting ripped off. <_<

Good thing I didn't play a lot on Friday... I really didn't do anything other than get the new Valentines Day clothes on my pirates.... So I won't be losing much thankfully!
