Forums Posting Rules Past, Present and Future Pinned Locked Hot about three years ago by Laredo	7.7K	0	Captains, When I started this game I had no clue what I was doing, so I would come to forums and ask questions. I got some wonderful help from the community and the CM/MOD team that was here then. What we see in forums now is a player that comes here and ask a legitimate question. Before a community member or the CM/MOD team can try and help a troll has belittled them because they didn't know the answer to their own question. We have the posters that come here to rant with 'WTFKIX, you bro… Laredo 2 Sep 2017, 5:30PM

I accuse you of false play, kixeye Locked Sunday night by ralf.saunameister	146	7	&#13;Hey there - I'm really sorry to hear you're experiencing this issue. It is absolutely not intentional, and speculating in that way goes against the forum rules. If you've filed a ticket (which, as Billy says, is recommended and helps us track recurring issues) I'd be glad to follow up on it for you. :) CM_Ghillie Yesterday, 3:46AM
OK, So Its a guessing game now? Locked Hot Saturday afternoon by sandy466	193	7	Oops, thank you MillionDlrBil 17 Jan 2021, 9:14PM
U3 RONIN UPGRADE OFFER Hot Thursday morning by Leigh Brown	172	10	&#13;many ships that you cant get kits for. if you are a player that has difficulty collecting the kits when they are offered because you dont have the best fleets, then when you do need the kits to do an upgrade you cant get them. I have wanted Photon kits for a little while now. This policy flavors the big players and discriminates against the rest of us Surprise28 17 Jan 2021, 7:38PM

Inactive Bases / CM_Ghillie Saturday night by BPSmokey	83	4	The rule used to be 60 days if the holder doesn't log in and does not get attacked. The latter happening used to reset that timer, but I don't know when that rule changed. KrisK 17 Jan 2021, 7:43AM
base attack Friday afternoon by Buffet	100	3	Which actually kinda sux when you finally make it into the base and destroy everything in sight only to find out there is a radio tower on a land tile outside the base and your time has ran out. ShadowGhost 17 Jan 2021, 2:22AM
Chat Bans Locked Saturday morning by SOD5 k	88	13	Closing for obvious reasons. If you feel you've been wrongly banned for something, please reach out privately by means of a ticket or a personal message to the CM or Mods (so we can direct you to the CM), the public forums are not a place to discuss these actions. (General to all, I see the OP notes they aren't banned). Battle Pirates is a PG13 rated game, if it can't be said in front of children on day time TV then it can't be said in game or on the public forums. Another note is that if y… MillionDlrBil 16 Jan 2021, 5:57PM

One of your subs has too much damage to attack Locked Saturday morning by BraeBonnee	79	4	Before this raid you couldn't launch a sub fleet unless it was repaired entirely, now you can launch and use it provided no ship has less than 10% health. If you have a ship in your fleet with 10% health or less, take it out and continue on. It'll stop you getting that message. Closing as answered. MillionDlrBil 16 Jan 2021, 4:36AM
