[quote who="kryo" reply="5" id="1980310"] What techincal support? No phone number but I get some silly e-mail address If you want technical support, you do have to be willing to receive it, and email ([email protected]) is the preferred method. The forums are best suited to simple issues or user-support, especially if you're not a highly technical sort of person, as email gives both sides time to work through the issues thoroughly. It would appear from your

[quote who="AndPious" reply="3" id="1978748"]My, my... I myself am just beginning to experience the load of problems with getting online, but I'm not sure I have tried everything yet. I just wanted to say that I'm amazed that you (Viewpoint) stated repeatedly that you could not uninstall/reinstall the game, and then Seabass goes and tells you to fix problems by *GASP* uninstalling/reinstalling the game. Wow. [/quote] Yeah...I'm thinking the same thing. Wow!!!! Yep.

For Impulse related issues with downloading and installing please reinstall the game and then right click on the icon and select "verify installation". Do you happen to have any security software running at the time of installation? Dude... I can't even install the game. Heck, I don't even know if I fully uinstalled the game that I had uninstalled in attempts to reinstall the game so I can put this...what....farce of an I

Look people here is the problem with this d*** game!! I bought the game back in May. It is a good game. I like it a lot. However to get this game to download, to get online to play with others and the like is a total s***bag full of frustrtion. Yes, I'm cussing because of the frustration this game puts me through. Now after going through a barrage of hosting problems of "who can and who cannot host", and login problems I burned out trying to play this game, and I j

Possible Server weakness in Ironclad's Server in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

You know in the technical section of this thread I put up this response. However no one wants to listen because as a "noob" , I kind of worn out my welcome sort of speaking. As stated, I love the game very much. I'm not here to start any problems and I'm not here to start a flame war. However, this problem if I'm not wrong has to be addressed to the Stardock and Ironclad officials here. In my opinion it is very sad that the Stardock an

Reply to Is it just me or can no one host a online game? in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

Hey I've been trying to address the host problem with Ironclad Online. Nobody at Stardock and Ironclad Games are listening.

[quote]Hey Monk , dont listen to fools like viewpoint. You have been very helpful to the community and im sure the people who matter - Ironclad and Stardock are very appreciative. I sympathesise actually with your situation where you are an expert in your field but you have to communicate in lay-speak to the masses. I study Dentistry where Im actually trained to communicate and empathise with lay people , and its suprisingly a very difficult skill. Explaining things to colleagues in the same fie

[quote]Annatar, thank you for the back up.Viewpoint, I'm glad that your game now works. I'm sorry that you were annoyed and perhaps misinterpreted my intentions by what I said, but I believe Annatar summarized my feelings pretty well. Perhaps as time goes on, you're learn that it's not a sign of weakness to apologize when at fault. This was a case where this was not an Ironclad problem, yet, you mistakenly assumed it was their online system that was the issue (and bashed them 'round a bit for it
