POtCO "Rocking Our Roos" Pirates Guild

[threeboysmom]

I think it's time they gave you your very own cell block!

LOOK WHO'S TALKING!!

I will NEVER come to visit you again until I've asked you FIRST where you are and what you're doing!!

Ok, maybe I should start my own pathetic thread, but thought this might be better than PMing someone. I tried loading POTC last night, took me through the initial Disney sign on and load, then a big blank dark screen. Couldn't ctrl/alt/del so manually shut down. I deleted the EA-Land that I find mundane and not my thing to free up memory. Not sure I got it all as some files said they couldn't be deleted, but trying to lad POTC again got me the same results. Shut down again and went to bed. Well it was 1 AM and I'm sleep deprived trying to find replacement for vmk AFTER vmk closes, lol.

Any suggestions? Thanks

Use POTCO's live chat support. There are video card things they may be able to help you tweak out by manually editting the game settings (they are all stored in a text file).

Mmm... I always end up in jail for cheating at poker >_<. (10 times yesterday)

It won't let me go to Live Chat, even after turning off pop up blocker.

Driftwood Island also has some lower level wasps.. they're up in the grassy area.

What's exceptionally scary are those HUGE scorpions that come up behind you! AH!


If there's a crew online, I'll be back in a couple hours.

You might need to download an update for your video card driver... the piratesonline.com website has a list of all the driver updates available.. there are even instructions that will tell you how to find out which video card you have and if it needs to be updated. Choose the Graphics Drivers category under the help section on the bottom left of the screen.

Mine resembles one that is near the bottom of the list stated as older and probably will not work with pirates online. -sigh- Ok, got a month to find a deal online for new video card!

Car, you might want to also check your memory while you are at it. While the minimum requirement is only 512 mb, I find it works much better at 1 gb. We have three players in our house and the computer that is at 512 plays the game rather choppy with a lot of stalls and freeze moments.

LOL, I always seem to be in battle when you come to visit me! However, I went to visit Matty yesterday and I ended up in the middle of a huge group of high level veterans in Fort Charles. Arg. Also, whenever I visit HappyGoLucky, she is always in some extreme location with level 25 and up foes. Scary...............

--makes note of who not to visit from now on--

I'll stick with dancing on the pirate dock

Aww, I wanna dance too! I told dh we needed a video card off their list. He asks why so i tell him. I can hear his weariness in his reply of "ok I'll look for one, you know they're expensive." So much for his hopes of me having WAY too much time on my hands that I might start cleaning regularly and organizing the house. Poor guy.

I posted a longer version on the POTCO guild thread, but I just wanted to say Hi! Glad you guys are sticking with it. I was out of town for basically a week, but I'm back now. I'll be on tomorrow so if anyone needs anything just whisper, or post here and I'll check up. Car, good luck with the computer issues I hope you get it worked out, the more the merrier!!

OK, Pink and KrazyPete are now playing with unlimited access! W00t! (TY Petez!)

We need to pick a guild name now and get moving on that... So far, the ones I like that we've discussed are.......

DRUM ROLL

VMK Survivors (or Refugees)

Pretty Pretty Princess Pirates (this is my favorite, I think...)

Matty's Angels (sigh.. just had to throw that in there... it's cute, but Petez will never go for it...)

Too Lava for My Pink Lace Under.Roos

That last one makes me giggle hysterically to think of big burly Matty_D and KrazyPete walking around the pirate game with THAT under their names for everyone in game to see! I'm tempted to go with it just for the laugh factor alone

Did I miss any other favorites? I know we discussed a ton yesterday in VMK - so funny!!! Any other suggestions??

 

[SnowyJingleBells]

Too Lava for My Pink Lace Under.Roos

 

[threeboysmom]

Bet you're dying to join the Pink Lace Under.Roos Guild, aren't you?

OK, another clothing question... sigh...

Now that I'm "unlimited" (oh I feel so special), I FINALLY have the ability to change clothes. I remember someone saying that you can only hold 3 articles of clothing in your inventory at a time.

So......

Does that mean I can literally ONLY have 3 pieces of clothing or does that mean I can have 3 shirts, 3 pants, 3 boots, 3 hats, and 3 coats?

Oh, Pirates is going to be so much fun now!

No more making a new character and starting all over just to get a new outfit! I can finally level up and catch up to Cruise.he!!

 

[KrazyPete]

Matty's Angels (sigh.. just had to throw that in there... it's cute, but Petez will never go for it...)

I told you that I can go along with any name that has "bloodthirsty" in it. Make it "Matty's Bloodthirsty Angels" and I'm in!

"Too Bloodthirsty for Pink Lace Under.Roos"... See how well that works?

Hey, what happened to "Cute or Booty?" I liked that one.

 

[Iris]

Or

VMKCuteorBootSurvivor? or CheapGoldUser?

Just an FYI:

The following names were discussed in great length yesterday - Matty_D and his Angels, Matty_D and the Sirens of the Sea, More Matty_D, Matty_D and His Girls Gone Wild (do we see a pattern here?)

I do like "CuteorBooty" or "TooHotForMyPinkLaceUnderoos" as well. Hey, as long as I can be an officer I will go along with any name.

No more making a new character and starting all over just to get a new outfit! I can finally level up and catch up to Cruise.he!!
Today 06:52 AM

Never going to happen..................

I can already tell this will be a crazy sort of Guild!!!

 

[threeboysmom]

Wait!

What happened to the whole Princessey thing and the Pink Lace Under.Roos?
