  @ManVsMiniatures @Rare @SeaOfThieves I mean... slurs are pretty mean, and The legit only problem with your hunt for pedos is that nobody's gonna believe you if you are just gonna accuse everyone of one. If slimeypigeon is one, then you were right, if not, you just slandered someone innocent for no reason.

  @SeaOfThieves You really have trouble reading the "vibe check," don't ya? Christ. I understand needing to move forward at some point, but come on. At least let us see these "noticeable changes" first. Now, I think that was just a load of feel-good nonsense.

  @coldsot_ @SeaOfThieves I had this bug in insiders- because it was testing I didn’t leave and saw it thro and had people pissed but I was like “literally following through on the testing- the entire purpose of right now” That being said I got the same bug yesterday and scuttled cause I don’t want to win like that XD it’s a very broken bug - you’re untouchable too outside the ring closing in. I imagine a lot of people will do the same in that situation, but unfortunately a lot won’t.

  @SeaOfThieves your game is now trash and plagued by swarms of cheaters. I get you just ban them cause cheaters are happy to buy multiple copies of the game so its a + for your revenue, but how about just fixing the issue instead of being money hungry pigs that cover up pdf for a laugh,.

  @SeaOfThieves @RareLtd This game has become nothing more than a broken beta test. Absolute trash, unplayable.

  @SeaOfThieves •“After besting their rivals to become the Last Ship Standing, winners are now given additional time to collect their spoils and head to the final portal.” Nope this is not working still, I didn’t get time to turn the ship to harpoon the flag before I got transported back!

  @MurpheyLives @SeaOfThieves @Rare_Gamer Not calling Murphey a **** btw nor am i gonna say he isnt. But when you clearly knew where **** was going, you are part of the problem expecially in a space where you have kids in.

  @Musks_a_cunt @SeaOfThieves To protect players they should start by firing j0 and Shirah and updating their policies to better protect players. But that has nothing to do with the rest of the dev teams. The people building the game don’t control staffing or policy decisions. Expecting those people to stop working because of failures in another department isn’t right, and blaming them for issues they have no authority over makes all of us who have been talking about this look stupid. j0 has been actively deleting evidence during an ongoing investigation (which is illegal). And Shirah has been deleting peoples messages in the discord who speak up about this. That is who the community should be against.

  @TheDruhMooreon @codeman25955 @SeaOfThieves Dude's out here spreading drama. Let the new players enjoy all the wonders SoT has to offer! Sure there's a cheater problem, but there's also ways around it ESPECIALLY for a new player. And updates haven't been the same, but that doesn't matter to a new player. Let them have fun.

  @KBoldZiel @SeaOfThieves What a shocker, SoT released yet another THIRD OF A SEASON AFTER DELAYS and it's broken. Can't protect their community, can't code their game, can't do anything but dump more things into Emporium. This game used to be so much better.

  Smokes-N-Games (@Volerop) reported 37 minutes ago

  @FROTTOLEE @SeaOfThieves They should start by removing the one thing that connects silly pirate game to the real world. The pride bullshit. That is the catalyst for some of the most sick and vile people to flock towards SoT. The usual culprits are the flag pushers. They are a massive part of the problem, that very small, very vocal clique of players whom should not be trusted blindly in positions of power.

  @HitboTC @SeaOfThieves This is so bad. Almost as bad as when I was attacked for giving feedback in Alpha when the rainbow flag was put in the game. I thought it would cause issues for a game I loved, and it has. (That was a private forum) Yet it was shared all over Twitter and I was attacked brutally.

  @KingHotdogPig @RareLtd @SeaOfThieves Changing your profile picture and adding Star Citizen as a replacement game for Sot, hahaha. No one said Sot's conditions are great; in fact, S20 and up should have zero errors. But it doesn't do you credit to behave like this.

  @squidkiller8781 @Dambitt_ @SeaOfThieves well look, cheaters aren't really a big problem now. There were less of them than the actual number of bugs. They made them "grind" to be able to play Hourglass, so most risks their main profile in the process or completely given up on playing with those. (Yes on PC)

  @CaptainQuaa @SeaOfThieves Sadly , Shrouded ghost is gatekeep beside a RNG game mechanic and Spawn timer mechanic. Rarity is not the trouble , but how meg spawn is the main issue ... Arround 1h45 to get a single meg .... and only 0.02 % of chance to get the great one.

  @SeaOfThieves Why are alliances being broken if getting sunk by a enemy boat multiple times. I get the new mechanic but if boats are allied then maybe they shouldn't get merged out.

  @SeaOfThieves @XBOX For ages I've tried to get a replacement or fix for my gold plated version of that gold hoarder tablet. I never got a reply from the responsible party.

  My last LSS match had 2 airborne boats & one that never surfaced. Emerging from under water looks cool, but seems to cause more issues in this game mode. @SeaOfThieves #SeaOfThieves

  Last ship standing just killed of my drive to "getting everything" in sea of thieves, that includes all the emporium items. I will now only play to unlock achievements as they are added. I am done. For that, I am thankful. @SeaOfThieves, forcing me to sit through 40+ minute queue times to get into a game with cheaters, I am just not doing it. Since this will be the first set of cosmetics since launch that have been obtainable to everyone in the player base I wont get, I see no reason to keep trying. The streak/curse has been broken, It was a good run. Now, back to Forza Horizon 6.
