I am usually prudent about what I say because I know people may have very varrying points of view... however, PotBS was not only the best game I have ever played, it was most certainly the greatest MMO of all time (when it was at it's best).
Whisper to NA developers: Copy the shipcom mechanic from PotBS as much as you can!!! Magic troll skills FTW! (thunder/break/invince/Final D)
I guess I know you cant just copy PotBS... but don't blame me for dreaming!
