There is a problem though. if you press "Shift" too many times, you'll get a warning on your computer saying that if you press "Shift" too many times something will happen. I don't quite remember what it is that will happen, but if you try doing that on MapleStory then you'll see.

But I would like to manually dig and bust out of jail.

I would love to be able to do some of those things....
and also:
**have settings as to who and how many pirates on your ship. There are times when I just want to sail alone and ppl pop on unannounced. Also, on my war galleon, I lag when my crew gets over 4 pop ons. I will usually lag myself right to my desktop. Im not always happy with leaving my ship in the hands of ppl that have followed others on to my ship. I think an admit list would fix that... others wanting to come on your ship would have to ask for permission to board. Those time when I want to sail alone.. I could lock it up.
**I want to be able to punish pirates on my ship that misbehave. When I am sailing somewhere and ask for all crew to NOT FIRE... and they fire anyways... dang, that makes me mad. I'd like to be able to make them walk the plank. Seriously.. walk a dang plank. They could end up in jail. I think it might make them pay attention to the Captains orders.:mikec:

There already is a tailor shop in tortuga ( and probably other places ) so it would probably be really easy for them to allow you to change your apearance from there.

I think they should experiment with a server or two that use the WOW system where anybody on that particular server can attack anybody else, this would be interesting to try at least and see how it went and if they added an option onto the main screen people could select never to use these servers if they did not want to play like that.

I would also like somekind of noticeboard that captains could add their details to when they are looking for crew with a possible level ability selection, sometimes I need a crew but find it really hard to find people without having to hang around the docks for ages.

1) There should always be SOME kind of loot/reward digging. I'm not saying you should find a quest item every time, but when you dont you should at least find a few coins for taking the time to do it.

2) When breaking out of prison, you should have to manualy attack the cell door instead of just watching your character do it. It should be given a health bar, and you should have to attack it either with your sword, pistol, or voodoo doll to get out. On that same note, digging should be a manual process too. Instead of sitting there watching your character dig, you should have to press shift a few times to dig up the treasure chest.

3) There should be two new types of vendors added: a Tailor and a Barber. The tailor should allow you to buy new clothes, and the Barber should allow you to change your hairstyle. This would give players who are tired of their look a way to change it without having to start over,and it would provide a money sink to remove money from the economy.

4) The mouse wheel should zoom in/out on your character while on land just like it does on your ship at sea. You can already switch between weapons using the F keys, so there is no need to have two ways to do it, especialy if it replaces having a zoom on land.

5) All enemy ships should be boardable, not just flagships. I realize that not everyone wants to board every ship they fight, so once a ship is disabled there should simply be an option to destroy or board it.

6) Challenging a player to a "skirmish" from their player menu should allow the two of you to PvP at your current location, without being "undead".

7) There should be some kind of "reward" system for getting the most PvP kills. It doesnt have to be items, but at least some kind of badge.

What do you think?

I like all of them. I hope that they actually listen to you and get added into the game. Even if a few get added I would be happy.

2,3, and 4 yes yes yes

Big no to #2.

#1 would just be exploited by macro people.

I asked about suggesting things on live chat, and was told they don't really consider individual suggestions. It's all about player demand.

What a terrible system.
