    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%

    @zeldafanboy said in Steam shows i am ingame in Supcom when FAF is open: I kicked my brother off a competitive CS match because I launched FAF with Steam open. We share a Steam account so now I have to make sure Steam is closed before I launch FAF That will teach him. Great time to introduce him to FAF

    Random guesses Reinstall everything (remove any leftover files before) Disable any security software Try a VPN from a different country Try the newest or random older client version https://github.com/FAForever/downlords-faf-client/releases Try a different client https://github.com/Eternal-ll/Ethereal-FAF-Client/releases/download/v0.5-beta-fixes/win-x64.rar

    The UI for it has never been built properly so what we have atm is kindof a stopgap that does a poor job of explaining what’s going on. The only time you can see how many violations you have is when you get another one. The message will tell you the total number that you currently have.

    There are no accounts reset - Just host your own lobby, you will find a game and your rating will adjust after a few games. Also, there is match making.

    @jip That sounds great, how do I go by doing that? I have FA and the FAF client installed. Edit: @Photek filled me in on how to do that, for anyone else who might be interested: To play FA campaign via FAF 1- open the client 2- open play tab 3- open co-op tab 4- pick appropriate campaign mission 5- Optional - Set password to make your game private 6- set title 7- Host your game @thecore Yeah I do have XMP turned on, nothing else though. @ZLO The stutter in the video is independent of mouse movement or zoom level. I'm flicking the mouse around to show that it's not the recording that's stuck but the game. No spikes in CPU or GPU temp/utilization. I tested running a skirmish map and spawning as many units as I could and I got to 400+ units with no issue whatsoever. I don't know what to say really lol. Continued playing the campaign with no issue though.
