I was informed by one of the Global Moderators that..."There are some changes with the staff on the forum, so if you like to solve the ingame problems or bugs i strongly suggest to you to report them to
support@imperialsupport.org", after I had asked if the support people read the reports in the bugs section on the forum.
If this forum is no longer read by the developers, that is fine - its not unusual for online games - but it would be good to know who we are talking to. If the moderators do not have direct access to the developers, or no longer direct suggestions/bug reports to them, that is fine, as long as people know what is going on.
No disrespect meant towards the people that take the time to reply, but I would like to know if they are simply players who put some spare time in to help, or are linked directly to the developers team.
