    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%

    I use a mod for icons: "Advanced Strategic Icons mod installer 3.3.1", but lenkin's YouTuber has both this and that mod working at the same time. My mod mods: "redux acu icon" and "ACU highlight" don't work, but the "Advanced Strategic Icons mod" work normally and the SIM mods too. I tried to turning off the mod "Advanced Strategic Icons mod", it didn't help.

    There could be a number of reasons for this issue, and it might be difficult to pinpoint the exact cause without more information about your network environment. Here are a few low hanging fruit potential causes and suggestions for troubleshooting: You can try restarting your router to see if this resolves the issue. Your firewall or security software could be blocking the connections to other people. You may want to try temporarily disabling these programs to see if this resolves the issue.

    It's a problem with a NFS mount on the server that keeps dying/crashing whatever. We are aware of the problem, no ETA on a solution. (All previously attempts did not solve it yet)

    @iostrym Antitorps fire on any enemy torp that comes in range (and range is quite comfortable), when they are loaded. Even if those torps are fired to another target. So, yes, you can use destroyers to protect submarines, and submarines to protect destroyers. You can even put multiple naval units in the same spot. Like having 20 subs in the exact same spot. So they all protect each other. But in that case something with area of effect, can hurt all of them in the same time. Like Tempest torps/depth charges have aoe. Or battleships when groundfireing subs, etc. Notice also, that destroyer's antitorps have minimal range, under which they dont work. For example, if enemy sub is under your destroyer, then destros antitorp does not protect against that sub.

    Enable each mod one by one until you find the faulty one - probably one combination of mods does not work together.

    This can be solved by clearing cookies for the site, re-logging in, and trying to connect the steam account. Simply reloading, or even logging out and back in is not sufficient to fix the problem.
