    Hey @HerbertFreir, I've randomly come across this post. It's a common thing in pretty much every online game that people will flame each other. All it is is a coping mechanism so they must not admit they made a mistake themselves. It's really just the easy way out for being anonymous on the internet. There is no way of saying this is common or uncommon across a community as a whole as it's mostly invididual. Estimating how often it will happen to you is nearly impossible. Sometimes you will be flamed three times a day, sometimes it won't happen for two years straight. But there is a tendency: The bigger and the younger (on average) the community the more likely it is that people will flame, as they don't expect to bump into the other one ever again. FAF is a small, "well aged" community, and therefore less likely to be that way, as you for sure will bump into someone again. What usually helps is narrowing down the amount of anonymity to a minimum by playing with people you know through joining smaller clans / communities. I, for instance, happen to run a beginners group within the FAF Dojo. It's me and my co-trainer running training sessions with up to a dozen trainees (0-1300 rated) three times a week, in the EU evening hours. Our youngest trainee is ~20 years old, our oldest is ~60 years old. We have gay / trans people, furries... We welcome everyone and respect each other. It's about having fun and learning together. If the above is appealing to you and you could make (some of) the training hours, feel free to join our Discord server and reach out to me. If you can not make my specific training hours, please still feel free to join, meet people you could play with, and maybe find another trainer that matches your time zone.

    Have you secured your Discord account since the incident? What steps have you taken to make sure it cannot be used for malicious activity again?

    Thanks for your replies, I tested Eternal Strategic Icons, in combination with Penguin's Icon Mod and ACU Highlight (those three mods seem to be compatible), and it looks a lot nicer with the size increase of 150%

    You could test if a VPN from another country would solve the issue.

    @gandalf22 You or/and your son can appeal the smurf-ban and explain the situation with evidence to resolve it very easily. Additionally, if you think someone else is smurfing, please report them, so the mod team can investigate.

    @mostlostnoob Generally correct, but in this case we (mods) discussed it internally and agreed that a ticket would work best, for basically the same reasons arma wrote out

    No changes have been made to the AI for a few months now so I don't think it's a change in that regard. Which map and which mod are you using. Have you tried it without said mod? Usually a 5.9 AIX should result in pretty quick teching and building. One thing you could do is observe the AI to see what it's doing thats causing this problem. There are also logs produced that can give us an indication of something is going wrong that's stopping it

    It was mainly implemented to try and be helpful to the moderators so they could message people who were not currently online. And it was all set up as a bit of an experiment to see if it would work with the number of players that we have.
