Intellectually elite, virtual environment-obsessed blog Terra Nova (that's Latin for "New Earth", you proles) heard that Flying Lab Software is intending to shower the Pirates of the Burning Seas MMO players with user-submitted and peer-reviewed content. Bullshit, says Terra Nova:
It simply cannot be the case that Flying Lab mean what they say above, that the designs will be submitted to a peer-reviewing panel and the "best" ones will be implemented. The developers must intend to have a high degree of control over the designs that make their way into the world, because it is a certainty that if they don't the entire Port Royal harbor will look like t-shirts at a fan faire, with sails that feature large breasted elven princesses, Darth Vader in a jaunty pirate hat, and slogans like "Minus 50 DKP" or "WTS [Wang] PST".
This, my adorable airborne simians, is what is known as the "Tragedy of the Commons". And it will inevitably taint any wild n' wooly user-submission scheme like the one Flying Labs seems to intend.
On the other hand, maybe YTMND on the high seas will have a certain charm.
