I'm also quite ill and will be away for some periods at a time and I don't like that I am unable, as a courtesy, to close my port. This is a neck hold on us, the players, being forced into doing something the Owner's want us to do.
that was my initial reaction, that the boat schtick was an attempt by slashkey to raise their player numbers, and thus raise their share of the advertising dollars on facebook. the more i think about it, the more true i think that thought.

unfortunately, they didn't consider how annoying the ships would be. i do hope they garner enough return players and newly seduced players to compensate for players like myself who are now too disgusted to pretend we are amused.
