How do you shut down PotCO?

Ik the fastest way is by opening Task Manager & shutting down Pirates_Online.exe process, but I try to avoid doing that coz might accidentally shut down an important process next to Pirates_Online.exe lololol.

So was wondering what do you think is the next fastest way to shut down PotCO when u wanna log into another acct? (Gosh I miss links!!!!)

Edit: rofl I guess the Poll I made got rejected O_o hmmm.... coz I posted this in Polls & made the Poll thing for it yesterday too
Anyways the obvious choices were:
Typing /quit into chat box
Alt+F4
Esc + Exit Game
Killing the Pirates_Online.exe process
Other (reading the new posts, I forgot about X in the top right corner too lolol)

To me, the 1st 3 choices seem to shut down the game at the same speed totally have the Pirates_Online.exe process disappear which are all like 2x as slow as compared to just simply shutting down the process itself. The X in top right corner weirdly takes the longest to get rid of the process in task manager so the log in screen appears again.

Log onto another account? I use shift +f2 for the another pirate on same account, to log onto another I use slash quit or hit the X button on my windowed thingy.

Another way is F7, exit game, ok and you're outta the game.

See that Square box on the top right of the game screen? Press the X, it does magical things ^_^



or you could just type /quit in the game window

Huh, I didn't know you could press Shift/F2 to do that. Disney needs to make some Load Screen Tips that tell you you can use Shift/F2 to return to the Pick-A-Pirate menu, or type /quit to log out, because those would actually be helpful at any time.

Killing the Pirates_Online.exe process would be the quickest.

I usually use /quit since I have no rush.


( even quicker)
What also you can do is

kill Laucher1.exe when u first login,

and u are allowed to login into a different account, at the same time, while the new game loads, you could take your time to quit on the first one.
