    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%

    To expand on Nex's answer: You have a sound bug which you can tell by the SND/XACT warnings. Simple fix steps are: Windows key > type: Control Panel > Open > Sound > Playback > select the Device you use: Configure > Stereo > finish configuration, Properties: Enhancements > Disable all enhancements, Advanced > no higher than 24 bit, 48000 Hz, Spatial Sound > Off, Restart or Shift+Shutdown (not just Shutdown) of PC If your headphones come with any applet/program, then you may want to disable that & try using the headphones without it. Similarly, if they use a USB or Bluetooth dongle to connect to the PC, see if you can connect directly without the dongle.

    The client has been flaky lately (heh) because all of the architecture behind the client has been DDOS'ed the past weeks. The server admins have put in a lot of effort to combat this but in the end our resources are limited. It also doesn't help that Cloudflare (that we use for file distribution) has been a bit flaky too the past week. All in all I think your experience matches with what is going on; luckily we're working on it and we've even recently made a major step towards stability and we'd love to hear your feedback on that

    @magge Thankyou for your response. I restarted my computer twice. I also re-installed FAF. I also, checked my firewall 'allowed programmes list' as with all the updates something may have snagged on there. It now connects fine. Thanks for your quick response.

    There was a recent hotfix patch that caused this issue. I know it is frustrating; Creating more threads about it will not speed up the process. As mentioned in the initial post, a fix is being worked on. Please, just be a bit more patient.

    found a feature that would close this issue, but don't know the state. https://github.com/FAForever/downlords-faf-client/issues/1783 https://github.com/FAForever/server/issues/607 Since this is already ongoing for 3 years, i doubt it would be implemented fast.

    @FreemanItsNotHe That keybind is present in both vanilla SCFA (in the Steam version at least) as well as in FAF. Can you please take a screenshot of the bottom keybinds shown in the Order section of the F1 Key Bindings menu as this keybind will be close to the bottom? Also of note, the default assignment for this keybind is B.
