    @AlmtyChcknPoo @SeaOfThieves To be fair some of us kinda blow ***. I care more about numerous sot community moderators blocking me for talking about quality control issues within the game instead of glazing ******** out of it like a fat kid preparing a toaster strudel for himself.

    @Psychobaker_24 @RareLtd @SeaOfThieves i dont believe thats up to you or me to decide that, lets just wait for the company to address the problem publicly.

    @fraudatori @SeaOfThieves You're missing the point. If you have sea of thieves on game pass, do not login to the game and vote an emisary you're not on the ledger. I'm assuming you haven't played this month? Go to the ledger and look for your position, you won't be on there until you login and vote

    @RealLifeWookie @SeaOfThieves Same. I quit sot when they removed quickswap and made all combat clunky as a result of the fix, i will not come back to sot but i still follow the game, i played sot since 2018 until season 10 religiously, all my friends quit around that time too.

    @SeaOfThieves Can your support team actually support me? They said buying a new copy would fix my game.

    @Common_Potatos @SeaOfThieves That's why they started it early this time. It's gonna take longer cuz there's less interest. Should honestly just lower the requirements, but I guess this is one way to fix it.

    @yooztis @SeaOfThieves Will need to own a xbox or a active game pass subscription to login into the sea of thieves game on xbox first then it will work but I believe it works on pc on game pass.

    @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.

    @DalannaPlays @SeaOfThieves Regardless of what happened tonight Streamer mode should be a thing anyway for basic protection... It's a common thing on other games. Post wasn't entirely about Peanut though, its been a issue for multiple creators for 8 Years..

    Is it just me, or is everyone experiencing terrible frame drops in #SeaOfThieves lately? I have a pretty decent PC setup, but my frames are dying whenever I’m fighting a Burning Blade or completing Ashen Garrisons. The lag when opening barrels and crates seems to be back as well. Looking back at old game clips, it used to run smooth as butter. Will it ever feel that way again? @SoT_Support

    @Jumper92PL @SeaOfThieves Hi there. Support tickets are the best way to contact our Support team as they have the ability to review your information and account info. If you tried raising a ticket earlier and experienced an issue where the submit button wasn't functioning, that should now be fixed. Cheers.

    @hasmoq @SeaOfThieves Oh? That's crazy because I had this happen to me a few days ago, it's in my videos on twitch. I got the unstable connection notification and decided to log out and restart PC. Is this a way to know there are hackers? I've also encountered the Garrison dive glitch 1/2

    @SeaOfThieves Disappointing mess of a weekend. Dabloons not tracking or lagging hard. Text not showing on instructions. Rage inducing bilge rat tasks. Having to wait a whole day for a fireworks display to be at a certain outpost. The fishing was chill but pointless as no dabloons

    @MurpheyLives @SeaOfThieves @Rare_Gamer This is the worst possible statement you could make. "Clear his name"??? It is OVER. There is nothing to clear. The best you could've done is apologizing for your poor judgment, but considering you were part of that disgusting joke a year ago, I guess you regret nothing. It's not a problem that people like that lose the community. The problem is that they did NOT lose it for the first obvious signs. Goodbye.

    @SlothyBearr @SeaOfThieves The black and white is signal enough. I can’t believe that made it to a more prominent side of hourglass. I imagine that’s wildly triggering to a lot of people with any form of inner ear issue or sensitivity. Like who wants one long high pitch tone in your ear for 5 mins. Even if you don’t have sensory issues absolutely no one likes that haha

    @Joe651750613863 @SeaOfThieves It's not even something is the issue. They're so unwilling to come up with new content that they just put already existing emporium cosmetics as drops. It's so lazy that I'd honestly rather no drops at all 😭 gold, renown, and the voyage of "luck" are useless fillers as well

    @SeaOfThieves can we actually fix our game before we implement new systems? Here I am trying to pvp and get better at pvp and I'm... 1.) Glitching though my boat? 2.) Grabbing the latter when I interact with anything in my ship that requires interaction? 3.) all of the above? 3.

    @SeaOfThieves @gaming_4nj4 A lot of the codes are broken, don’t bother sending tickets to rare about it, they will just tell you to talk to Microsoft which is full of AI agents lol

    @IamGreen112 @SeaOfThieves So, players who exploited this got to keep everything, those who were affected by the glitch got items deleted, and you're stuck between a rock and a hard place of having to earn them, and having items taken away. Schrodinger's Doubloons-- their here and not here at same time lol

    Throughout the years of Sea of Thieves, there has been so many attempts of exceptionally large creators that want to check it out with friends, just to be met by cheaters, or the most annoying behavior till they are forced to get off. This kind of **** has been going on for well over 3-4 years, as someone whose been hit personally by auto hopper, spamming of 100's of invites, targeted server ddos, dozens of times at this point. You learn to deal with it. Nothing you can do. Its annoying, and if someones determined, they will get you eventually. Now I'm no professional in advertising, but I feel like I got a good idea of how it works. When big or small creators, paid or not, are putting forth an opportunity to really set in motion some fresh eyes for your game, its best to start plugging some of these vulnerabilities so they can continue to play, or at least feel the need to. That's good business. So I mean with all sincerity, but what ******** is going on at HQ in which **** like this continues to happen? ITS BEEN YEARS OF THIS SAME BULLSHIT. You can have your own personal look on TheBurntPeanut, but when one of the biggest advertisers/creators, averaging 80-100k live viewers across 2 platforms, is constantly getting hit. What do you think that shows viewers, interested, in maybe checking out Sea of Thieves for the first time. First impressions are everything, and this **** ain't looking too good. #SeaOfThieves

    @SeaOfThieves you guys have to fix the DDOS problem. you had the biggest advertising ever with @theburntpeanut playing the game and he was ddos-ed off the game in less than 15 min.
