    The majority of permanently frozen accounts are frozen for being a shared or alternate account. This is something we actively investigate, and we appreciate players reporting suspicious accounts to us.

    Gamer Point Collection Fix

    Previously when joining a different Armada you couldn’t accumulate personal GP until the next day of the season as a side-effect of not being able to gain GP for your Armada during this time. This is no longer the case! If you change Armadas you can continue to collect personal Gamer Points. You still have to wait until the next day for your GP to go towards your Armada, though. :)

    Changes to the World Boss

    Yesterday we rolled out a small update to the World Bosses: on the final day the Boss is available, the time between attacks will be decreased from 15 minutes to 60 seconds, so you can attack the Boss every minute. We can adjust this further based on feedback, but for now try it out and let us know how you feel.

    Bounty Flash Events!

    After a small break after the initial debut in Viking Clan, the Bounty events will be making their way to the other games over the next week and will run through the rest of the month. If you want more info on how Bounty events work, check this thread here.

    Happy Friday, players!

    And a happy Hanukkah as well, to those who celebrate it. :)

    We would, once again, like to remind players that we don't sabotage actions or otherwise interfere with player combat. Trust me, maintaining a smooth and responsive game environment is sufficiently challenging and we're not looking for ways to make this more complex. ಠ_ಠ

    If you are having trouble performing a battle action, there might be a connection issue. Here's a few of things you can try that can help rule out common problems:
    • logging out and clearing your browser's cache

    • checking that your your browser is updated to the latest version

    • rebooting your computer or device
    If you continue to have difficulties, please let us know and we'll look into things on our side. It's not in anyone's interest for the game to be slow or buggy!

    Cheers

    Terrible Joke of the Week

    Here's your lame joke of the week!

    Why was the archaeologist sad?
    His career was in ruins!

    Still would be nice to let people know when the flash events are coming for the bounties. I think its a terrible idea otherwise. Your going to let the ones who use scripts and bots run amuck with this also. We have already heard their doing it in the other games.

    :)Very Nice Gamer Point Fix!:cool: I have yet to switch armadas, so didn't realize it was a "thing." Definitely, a pirate would be wanting to keep his/her loot, regardless of where the ship travels, buahaha!

    The tiers have been adjusted numerous times since raids have hit. It was a lot lower at one time. Now because of fast levelers its always getting adjusted almost every other raid event.

    Quick question Mitch, when VIEW bosses, which include raid bosses...
    Why does a defeated boss say "expired boss" then have to go to raid tab 1 by 1 to collect the rewards?????:eek:

    Example picture

    I didn't click on [view results] so not sure if can collect there, but should we have to if so?

    I agree with you on that Jades. It was fine when we were able to collect them just off the boss page itself without having to hit the raid tab to collect them. So your clicking numerous times more just to get the reward or see them expire twice on two different tabs.

    Saw the "expired Boss" link. Clicked on it.. no Raid.. no rewards. Thought someone was a Raid Killer and I missed out.

    Something was definitely wrong here. We shouldn't be seeing "expired" on a raid that was only 3 days old. I saw that yesterday. When in fact, rewards were to be collected.

    Hey Mi7ch 3 bosses were completed on raids 100 percent completion it said i missed out on collecting the rewards. Expired Boss. How is this possible. Before i went off last night i collected all raids completed and even earlier this morning when i had a few mins to play i collected some. Now i am wondering if i even got those rewards from those raid bosses i collected. I was on 101 total raids i have been keeping count 4 raids did perish out of time not completed so far. 60 items collected so far and i have 25 raids left. So i am losing out on items and now that the green bar completion has been implemented i have not missed meeting the requirements since it has been added to the raids. So how is it i am missing 12 items now from raids.

    Patience and a lot of favor points hoarded waiting on raids to come around every time. And it's not about fast leveling for me. It's about the items for me because doing it the right way you can make yourself stronger easily with raids and not weaker leveling 100s to 200 levels plus more in a raid event.

    Contact Support and they'll check and see if you have properly corrected the rewards. If not, they will set you up.

    I work hard on a raid, 15488643 dmg, and they gave me a half reward again!! this is the second time I played this raid, doing 20 raids each time!! This is what I been getting:Tree Sprite, Tree Sprite= 194 Attack - 147 Defense; Owned: 4 !! I own a lot of half prizes This is what I got out of 23 raids, counting last time and this time: 3 common rewards, the rest were half rewards!!! Makes me wonder if I should bother playing!!

    Just so you know on 3 of these raids, I was right at the top so you can't say I didn't work for them!!

    Mi7ch, that collecting from raids glitch is still there in the Boss area. If you go to click on a dead raid from there it still says the wrong thing. You have to go to the Raids tab to collect and the info there is correct.
