Exclamation Something VERY strange on Abassa Tortuga.....

Just a few minutes ago, I noticed there was a spot near the tavern called King's Arm where the mouse says there is someone there, but.... NO ONE CAN BE SEEN!!!! It's currently on Abassa Tortuga, and I need to know if anyone else has noticed this so far. This could be a Host GM watching us.....

Are you positive it isn't somebody behind the wall/using a potion? (If a dot is on the compass, as well?)

Whenever I scroll over another ship, or enemy, it does that (well... at least the ship). So maybe it just does that with interactive parts of the game... o_o Did you try clicking?

The strange part.... is there WAS no dot and there WAS something there because strangely the knocked out Host GM style of sending you to jail too kept happening to certain people and I don't even know what was there. Also, yes, I kept clicking that spot several times and it always showed the same thing. So, even though nothing is there, my mouse kept telling me there WAS. Very odd......

So, you are saying nothing was shown on the compass, or in your "pirate-view", yet when you moved your Mouse and clicked several areas, you heard a clicking sound and no pirate info window opened up.

Is that right?

I had the same thing happen to me, and there truly was a GM in the shack that's near the swamp of Tortuga.

This is just another example of Disney's fail programming to disable any "on mouse over do" commands.

I believe you man, and yeah, a GM is there if people are getting knocked out.

They are watching the server in 3rd person view, with latency check, IP check player volume, player action logs, player chat logs and banning tools.


Source = I should know because I've seen the software they use.

It's very odd. And the sad part is, I couldn't get pics of it because it happened way too fast for me to get a decent screen out of. :P Yes, Storm, I, too, have had strange cases where I was around a Host GM and the knocked out style/sending to jail system actually happened. It's all very strange. Lol, also, yes, you are correct, Storm, because that's EXACTLY what I was looking at at the time.

Yeah, they don't even have to hide if they aren't given special "floating pirate" commands, that way most players would just discard it as a mistake and not "investigate" the abnormality.
