Response to a review
Captain Boneboys replied to admin's topic in News Announcements & Important discussions
I like the way Admin does his own style communication. The review in question reads like a false appreciation and has no worth, that was my impression which has only increased with the oh scandal and certain posts being removed by the OP. Every Dog Rat has its day I suppose. ************************************************ Inks Topic on the Hub should be pinned and closed to comment (imho). http://steamcommunity.com/app/311310/discussions/1/312265672109433338/ -
Things that make no sense thread.
Captain Boneboys replied to stormridersp's topic in Current Feature Improvement Suggestions
So you don't teleport between Outposts ? I do, mostly to recall what I have in the different warehouses, If there was some form of Captain's Log which noted these sort of things, I would probably not do so (teleport) and be most pleased (with the Captain's Log). I'm all for removing teleporting but I doubt it would be accepted by the majority of players, so I'll just take it as a game mechanic / function to be used if it suites me. -

The Prey button : Admin said that the function was unknown or rather "we don't know" . Catching salt while fishing ! -
"Raise the Anchor Ball" when at anchor (with animation, if you please). This term will live with me forever and a day, I believed that the first had ordered "raise the anchor boy" which I accordingly commenced to do. The grinding of the works wakened the Captain who lept from his sleep in a panic aboard to put stop to the process. True story...

Something should be done about derailing Topics. Generally there are two actions that work with Trolls, ignore or slap. Another but rarely used is to troll the troll, this method is often fruitful and amusing but is missed by all but the parties concerned. Recommended ***************************************** I've moved my ships / stored material to Outposts / Capital. I'm ready for the next patch. Deploy when deemed fit. Thank you for the waves

2 Officers Please
Captain Boneboys replied to Captiva's topic in Current Feature Improvement Suggestions
Why, so you can have all the perks without having to make a decision on which are more important to your needs ? Voted NO. http://forum.game-labs.net/index.php?/topic/15541-officer-suggestion-for-multiple-officers/ -
Eliminate Steam!
Captain Boneboys replied to Elric's topic in Current Feature Improvement Suggestions
This is not a serious suggestion (Who else hates Steam?) therefore should be moved out of this Forum section or better still sent to the ocean floor. -
Eliminate Steam!
Captain Boneboys replied to Elric's topic in Current Feature Improvement Suggestions
There was a before Steam and an after. You've never had it so good ! -
I've seen AI passing through land (recently Ruatan for example) but never a player since public release. If fixed for AI it should work with players. I will report in future any errors I witness.

Image limit per post
Captain Boneboys replied to Black Spawn's topic in Forum and website problems and improvements
Your images are extremely expensive in terms of resources. 2560x1400 pixels + width 90.31 / height = 50,8 per CM (I checked only one). Change this to per inch, divide by 2 and save as a PNG file, quality loss is negligible. There may be a limit size imposed (attachments) but iirc there is some conflict with bbcode and IPB 3x (the forum being used). A Forum Guideline for acceptable image size would be useful. Might help, might not... -

Bots ruin this game
Captain Boneboys replied to angriff's topic in Current Feature Improvement Suggestions
angriff ruins these Forums (or at best drags them down). Time to figure out a method. Come on guy, put your energy into something useful, you can do better. Otherwise waste of space. -
I've sold a few vessels through the Sell Put on Sale tab with perma upgrades, no complaints were made. This should be permitted as it gives extra selling and purchase value. IMHO !

Moderator Problems
Captain Boneboys replied to Captain Pickle's topic in Forum and website problems and improvements
Forums are well moderated and members in general are appreciative of the time and effort put in by the staff. In your case (locked Topic) the instructions were clear and precise. Move on... -
I wholeheartedly agree. I understand that some do not have the time to sail from Conception to Port Royal with a Traders Snow full of materials (estimated 1hr with good wind) but multiplying the sail time by x2/3 will completely change the gameplay and feeling of open world travel that the game now produces. Voted : NO.

Alliances - final design
Captain Boneboys replied to admin's topic in News Announcements & Important discussions
Hmm, I'm pretty much playing as an independent (British) trader and scoundrel with outposts in 4/5 ports along the America's coastline + Kingston/PR. We no longer have Neutrals (I voted for the removal). I find myself in the most dastardly of doldrums with this bewildered and bewuthered political meandering. I fear I shall by need only, become an unfortunate Corsair without rights or Letters of Marque. What will become of me now ? -
Server problems - Gift ship

Dev says 2nd rate, wiki says 3rd rate. I was looking for crew N°'s myself. Sorry for any misunderstanding -
Server problems - Gift ship

Crew Cost scales to rank
Captain Boneboys replied to Jeheil's topic in Current Feature Improvement Suggestions
This is a good suggestion. Think of the poor and lowly Ranks. -
Remove Free Ports
Captain Boneboys replied to Baron Von WeisenCracker's topic in Current Feature Improvement Suggestions
I have outposts in three (3) Free Ports. This allows me to buy / capture different resources in ports that are in the same area as the Free Port I am operating from, depending on my needs. I have in the past abandoned Free Ports, moving operations to safer waters until the situation allows for a return. Once I have the materials required to construct a vessel I transport everything (at great risk) back to the Capital Port where I have an extended warehouse and shipyard. Remove Free Ports is not a reasonable suggestion and should be dismissed by all those that trade/craft.
