Can I suggest that you do a screenshot and then you can put it in your comp circular. Here's an example - http://prntscr.com/e484ah I find that so much easier to send it to all members

Since there is obvious concern about lower level players not being able to afford to produce in factories or buy at the exorbitant prices I would like to resurrect an idea I put forward previously but in a modified form. Here goes: If we have the facility for higher level players in a company to gift raw materials to lower level players (up to level 25 or 30 say) with no charge - so its a free gift or reward for being active - there could be no "insider dealing". What do you guys think?

Great idea

More cosmetics for avatars is a great idea - could I suggest that, in addition to paying for additional looks, you could charge a small fee (credits/gold bars) for people to upload their photograph - head and shoulders shot only permitted?

Totally agree with the above. Would add that having played in other games with Mods - they never got directly involved in any arguments or discussions but they were shown in red as being in the chat area. If anyone got out of hand the Mods dealt with it by pm and/or instant blocking of that person from chat for a time that fit the crime. I would propose more power to the Mods, and strong support from us reasonable players, when they are chosen. Even the Search chat needs moderating cos some companies ignore the rule of advertising once per hour and re-advertise as soon as they disappear from the chat screen.

I've been thinking about this as well for some time and was going to suggest that ALL items are available in both gold and credits so we can buy what we need rather than waste time waiting for random goods. A simple table should be easy to place on the page and I am sure people would spend more credits and gold if they had a full choice 24/7.

"Don't worry, you'll be refunded the credits you spent on the marina." Will we lose out on the percentage increases to our Museums and Markets?

I disabled my sound a few weeks ago and occasionally have had the same issue and "freeze" point on my computer - I don't do Facebook. I found that the only way to clear it was to completely shut down the computer (restart didn't clear it) and then boot up again. I haven't had the issue for a while now.

I had the same issues yesterday when ships had ZZZs showing but also various numbers of trips remaining.

That is ok when you have one screen of ships but when you are dealing with more than that number of ships on the 2nd or 3rd screen then a warning flag would be very helpful to me and those looking to maximise their ships usage. Would be good for me as a memory jogger and to instantly get the ship routes planned and actioned soonest. Sorry Masta that we disagree on this. It would be a nice helpful touch from the developers.

Great idea Sall. I support it.

Can I suggest that, similar to the "warehouse full" warning, that we have a warning for when ships go idle in real time as well as on screen when logging in?

I only suggested suspending general chat tab and not the help tab so new players can still get the help they need. Hope this clarifies

Greetings Masta. I hear you and watch in dismay at the abuse going on in general chat. Brings the game into disrepute. I have heard nothing, like you, about the Mod roles. Maybe nobody wants it anymore. The devs could suspend general chat for a couple of months so trolls and flamers move on (hopefully) and bother someone else.

Suggestion: Can we please have the Fish Factory History changed to a simple table showing which member has produced in the factory with the latest date of production and their production average for the week. This will save us having to scroll through many pages of history trying to find out who is/is not producing. At the moment this is a tedious task taking up a lot of precious time better spent playing the game.

Can I suggest that a facility be made to enable the company leadership to be able to have a "leaders Circular" or some such thing so that leadership discussions can be held without having to do single PMs to all and single replies to individuals. The ability to "Reply to all" would be of great benefit as well and enable discussions and company decisions to be carried out much more efficiently. The Chair could have the ability to decide which of his team would be included in a leadership discussion and the Leaders Circular or whatever.

To help low level players who join a company and struggle with limited resources could you consider adding a new tab in the Trade Office which would be similar to the Raw Materials market where players in the same company can trade raw materials with each other and avoid the risk of going to the open market when offering Raw at cheap prices to help their team members? Higher level players in a company would then be able to help their new team members or newbies joining the company to have the resources to grow faster.

Agreed. Perhaps some animation as well - like if your roads connect to the warehouse(s) and the main road then it would be good to have the trucks arrive and depart randomly as if we were actually producing and selling. A truck could set off on a journey when the company sells some of it stock?

I would like to suggest that the company structure is changed to allow flexibility and strength in depth to cover for holidays and sickness. I would like to suggest the following additional positions (a) to reward consistent active players who really contribute and (b) to achieve the above: These would be: Chair, Deputy Chair 2nd and 3rd in Command Recruiting Officer and Deputy Shipwreck Quest Manager and Deputy Plus the current Reps and POT roles of course Additionally I would suggest that each players name as it appears in the company HQ list of members has the country flag next to the name to make it easier to know which time zone our members are in so the Roles above can be better split across time zones for consistency and balance. I realise that younger, smaller companies may not have enough members to fill all roles but it's something they can aspire to as they grow.

Yumfy - couldn't agree more. Especially now there's an EN-1 server. Great suggestion.
