Two Neutral ports have been taken and a third set, but not taken.
You dug up an old rule that doesn't even apply to this situation. This was written in late 2016, there were no hostility missions, hostility was generated through OW fleets and PVP only.
For the period of testing until release using alts to generating hostility is a bannable offence.
When it says "using alts to generate hostility" that is referring to sinking alts in the OW in place of OW AI fleets to put hostility on a port. Which isn't applicable at all to the current situation.
Now can we please stop creating new threads about the same stuff and actually give the devs a chance to make a decision about it?
Ahah!

I cannot quote H. Darby in any topic but this, it seems, so
We keep making new topics because there has been no concrete developer response and the problem is just getting worse.
I have to admit this is now becoming just another way to create toxicity and unrequired drama by the offenders.
Devs should act in some way, otherwise this kind of situation will become "the norm".
I have seen many good games destroyed by unruly/toxic community, and conversly many sub par games still running due to a good community.
All that trolling/griefing continuing will do is create yet another barrier to game sales and server pop issues. I've seen reviews on steam that point out "toxic community yadyadayada", thats not good for game as a whole.
People should really think about if they want game to succeed or just to use to stroke personal egos and move onto next game when game closes. Lets face it with current pop we are kinda on life support currently, and if new wave of players doesn't arrive on release i think will possibly be a terminal situation for game which would be a great shame.

and why , in testing, Devs banned LV and SORRY clan? it was 2-3 years ago...we were still in testing...
No idea man, I wasn't here so can't really comment.

devs banned LV and many other players for same action, same use of exploit, same behaviour.
now they have to ban their beloved Golden Boy...because he did same things someone else has been banned and demoted for
I would say a total ban in testing would be a bit to harsh.
Perhaps as i suggested losing all ships and resources would hurt some as something to disuade this kind of behaviour.
Like when a child is naughty, take away their toys.

I am not in favor of punishment, but I am in favor of a simple reversion of ports taken by exploit to neutral status, so we can test the mechanic of frontlines the way it was intended to be. No need for 'punishment'...just fairness.
Sadly from time to time it is necessary for devs to be harsh on players abusing mechanics, if nothing else just to re-establish control and create worry about exploiting.
No action and you have situation like we currently have where some players feel themselves to be "untouchable" and do whatever the hell they want.
Seen it in other game testing, and sometimes a bit of whip is needed to make playerbase police themselves.
Like i said earlier 1st time "testing", 2nd time Griefing, 3rd time childish/infantile.
Perhaps strip continuing offenders of all ships/resources, that would make people squeal somewhat
.
Isn't a personal vendatta thing as i get on quite well with some of the guilty, but things have gone a step to far i feel and some action should be taken.

Time for the banhammer. Clean up the server.
I wouldn't say a ban maybe losing ranks, but is up to Devs really.
Continuing to use same bugs is just infantile.
Test will prove to be a fail anyway, soon every ship will have stacked port bonuses. Already i am seeing the effects while in a lowly herc, whole fleets of super buffed ships is turning game into "Dreadnought action". No buffs will mean fodder, and yes has always kinda been that way but now has gone from an advantage to no point fighting in substandard ships. New guys now will have impossible time being camped, was bad enough before but with all new bonuses I think will prove a barrier to new players and server pop will suffer over time (more than it already has) going from anemic to critical levels.
Buffs need to be lower, also only allow a port to specialise in only 1-2 areas for ship build.
Personally i don't play the meta game, and am finding loss of will to play on PvP server after seeing the early effects of all this.
Am sure will be balanced/fixed but currently is somewhat a bit of a mess all round.

Trinco - half right side and 68% sails. USS US a bit damged left side and 96% sails + Cecilia. You really think, that they need some exploits to finish trinc? I think that [BF]Zz1m just joined to battle, saw all this shit, understand that he will be next and left the battle (right decision). And Aga doesn't matter in this case.
Whether was intentional or not isn't the main issue/problem.
Issue is that it can be used this way, and as we know if players can some will

Personally i think the 2-3 min deadline timers were better, no way to exploit that way.
Although i kinda see what devs intended, just as usual people game the game.

Holy moly, this ship is a serious joke
Slow, no armor, no guns... What is this, devs showing us the middle finger because we got upset because they lied to us about the XP wipe?
It's not the best ship, but still can have fun in them.
If nothing else fleet them and take them for a viking funeral, organise a Pandora plague with friends/clanmates, or failing everything sell for reals each day

...St. Mateo PB just happened. What is the consequence?
Does it really matter, will all be wiped again lol.
I find all this really amusing now, all the chest beating for taking ports against AI and using bugs, all the saltiness.
It's been hillarious watching grown men act like 5 year olds, I seriously think this all could be a good base for a psychological study.
Sure i get pissed off also but just go play other stuff for a bit, go out see friends, chat up women in hope of a sexual encounter etc. .... lets all get some perspective on how sad all this has become 🤣😂🤣.

You're right about the testing (I will not comment on the other). This can be easily fixed if Devs take immediate action and we can move on.
Nothing will happen, no point in pushing subject.
Is testing, everything will be wiped anyway.

that's just laughable, someone post's the bug, fault and then a player admin looks too exploits it , absolutely awesome ;-(
It is test phase so not a big thing, but still no wonder game pop is smaller than Donald Trumps penis.

I think there is enough toxicity in game and on forum without tribunal thread.
I suggest to take thread out of forum and move to a report feature in game, so taking out the public shaming and pointless elements which sometimes appear there.
Of course devs will still have cases that are not serious enough to warrant action, but would take away open discussion/retaliation tribunals by the people involved and general community.
Basically take the witch trials out from general view, it isn't healthy for anyone.
It's getting a bit silly with some of posts, and i'm sure devs could save time by not having to look at thread each couple of days.

Is it just me that finds it hillarious, that in the chat log the guy named after a deadly nerve agent reports a guy for a bad joke?
Maybe Janek is from Salisbury and was equally offended.
Not good to drop the C chat bomb, but pot kettle black come to mind.

Alt farming is going to be back in force now that the medals not only give you the most op mods in game, but are also needed to craft ships. So unless the devs have a super awesome system to counter it, I would expect tons of farming.
So nothing will change 😂🤣 .
I don't see how they can stop alt farming to be honest, not that i agree with it (have no alts) but already happens.

How similar will this game be to rule the waves?

Rule the waves sounds interesting, ty for mention will check out and probably buy :).
Ok checked out RtW and to be honest NA isn't like that, think more world of tanks with sail ships in an open world with very basic nation vs nation mechanics.
If you want a wargame i think this isn't for you perhaps (there ar much better wargaming titles out there), but if want a pew/pew with an extremely light sprinkle of Realm/nation based mechanics then give it a shot.
