This is still part of the problem, the "you in a general sense" thing. You're making it partisan. Improvements do not need to be locked to just one aspect. You can, and should, bring up all things that need to be…

Upkeep costs are universal, so if you can maintain 3 different research projects you might as well keep upgrading them as you get the resources. You can sustain everything at level 5 just the same as sustaining it all at level 1.

Please point out anywhere that I opposed it. Please. I would really like to know where you're coming from, because what I want are improvements to the system whereas you just seem to want to snipe.

You're not locked out from Timequakes. They are a conflict event, so you do conflict for them. They occur every 5 to 7 hours. Any org which wants anomalies is going to get them, it's simply not possible to lock them down forever fo…
Org stockpiles are... not super relevant to any discussion here. In no game ever does someone say "Hey, we have large stockpiles, so it doesn't matter if we hemmorhage comms edit: resources forevermore." Now, sure, if there was a "T…
Make sure to put enough extra in there for the upkeep.
The upkeep itself is 1,000 comms per org for each type of research. So if even 3 orgs pick Nature, that's 3,000 silk needed for upkeep every year. I just don't see how th…
CGT works from Astral too. People need to be encouraged to use CGT more if there is something they seriously need help with. Newbie works too. We are too small to let people stay stuck for hours, lots of people can help, so don't be afraid t…
If someone tries to add a solution that is nothing but a trolly obfuscation, it should be blocked (not get added at all). As I also stated, new solutions should be reviewed to ensure they are not just being abused to push partisan mudslinging.…

That is why I am not suggesting limiting reports on a skillset only to those who have it, because I agree that it can lead to nothing ever getting done. What we do need is something that actually enables "offering ways to improve the…
I think you have identified the most glaring problem with reports as they exist: The notion that a report is "my report" or "your report." That is, by definition, partisan. In past iterations of reporting, things have been trie…
I don't know that that's completely unpopular. My main idea for collaboration was to "unlock" reports from their author (at least a little bit). If alternative solutions can be proposed by other peopleand added to the report with admi…
I'm just going to reiterate that I strongly feel making reports more collaborative than us vs. them would be a Very Good Thing, before we end up with a bunch of one-sided reports on Night / Nihilism / Necromancy / Moon / Harmonics / Aeonics / Etc. …
Old promos: Had to follow IRE's schedule. All the games did similar promotions each month. This meant a good bit of coding resources invested in building these up every month.
New promos: Can just recycle things and build up easy st…
There's also just being malicious with your reports and not being
honest with your solutions. To which I would point at the very same
report. The solutions and the problem are disconnected from one

Bump up Wonderwings. Have them reduce insanity in Pandaland and Orrery. Give the ability to recharge power back into nodes (or to disable drawing power from the nodes while you're linking them). Those two right there would make the wings mor…
So if you are fighting over an anomaly and two different people have 8 mins on it, you miss the 15 minute tick... someone finishes, and then everyone has to wait 13 minutes for a new anomaly?

Sometimes, yes. Estarra has also sometimes been talked out of ideas, it is not a universal thing where they always go in (and even then they often do get changed). I do think it is better to approach this as a conceptual thin…
They have said repeatedly that they are not set on this option...
I can agree that raising the topic has definitely made a lot of people very concerned (a number of people joined the forums just to express their doubts). The uncertai…
