Communication in various forms is an asset in any online multiplayer game. I already proposed more means of communication in form of grouping (chats) for various tasks beyond clan, nation and trade chats which all have their limitations. Now this proposal here is about building a 'message board' in every port where everyone can leave a notice, which will expire after number of days. He may even chose how long it stays alive and have to pay a fee to the port owner (clan) for messaging. Like 1 day: 10.000 gold, 2 days: 20.000 gold... 9 days: 90.000 gold. Option to determine the price if you are that port owner. Message purposes are for advertising ships they may have on sale in that port (or warnings not to buy them, as they are meant to be "parked"...), arrangements to meet there with certain other players, offering merchandise before actually putting them into the shop (market studies...), asking for a shipwright to buy certain ship type, ... and many other topics, some of which you would find now in the local trade chat, but would need a longer time of visibility. Even enemy captains visiting on a smuggler trip could write stuff here. Imagine this to be the message board in the local sailor-frequented tavern, if message entry is public. If the author can chose to whom his message will be visible, imagine you gave a tip to the barkeeper for handing a paper to someone you expected in this place soon. Pros: - More useful communication, lasting longer - More income for port owners by paid fees - Deals of all kinds and annotations to offers made easier - you learn who has been in port when and what for, if he leaves a note to those to whom it may concern for whatever reason... Cons: - Possible abuse by pointless communication? - Who moderates this? Maybe port owning clan - (also a pro argument, depending on which side you are on:) coded espionage messages enabled

I purchased a Wasa note. When I converted it, it asked for frame and planking types, which I thought was strange since I hadn't started the crafting process. When I go to Craft/Ships, the Wasa is not there. Frustrating as the combat marks were valuable. Is there any way to get it back?

Might I suggest players when crafting a ship that we have the option to craft a ship note or craft straight to a ship. Make ship notes stackable. We then store ship notes in our warehouse. Or, simply give us dockyards to store ships for clanmates. PS make paints craftable and stackable also. Plz and ty.

4th rate ships should use a combined midgrade/high grade upgrade system to make them more economical for the players that will be using them. My idea is to change their upgrade costs to such. Basic 0 Common 1 Mid grade note Fine 1 Mid 1 High Mastercraft 2 Mid 1 High Exceptional 2 Mid 2 High thoughts? suggestions to make this better or relate to other classes of ships?
