4/17/2018 Topic: Not grasping some concepts ChaChaCharms	When you create a contract you have the option of choosing who it is available to. The best thing to do is put a message in the comms saying what you want to buy, the quantity, and ask for bids. Or you can create a contract by clicking create contract in the top right corner of the contracts page. From there you select you want to buy x product, Mark the availability to be anyone, and put your price and where you want it delivered to. Make sure you put the price per unit.
4/17/2018 Topic: How does one actually apply to join a Guild? ChaChaCharms	You can only send 1 person a message at a time unless you are in a guild and sending it guild wide which would make it a private comm thread. To send the message you type the name of the corp and click search to make sure it is being sent to the proper corp (and it makes the game run a query to search for the corp) Than type the message
4/17/2018 Topic: Not grasping some concepts ChaChaCharms	No problem! In the comms I posted that we are looking for new corps to come to gulyaev. Take a look at the comms in game and message me if you have any concerns. There is a lot to learn and we have a lot of knowledge to share. Have you tried the Discord chat? The core players that are doing quite well will generally be online. We may not say much in chat but if people start asking questions you'd be amazed at how many come out of the woodwork.
4/17/2018 Topic: How does one actually apply to join a Guild? ChaChaCharms	Oooh. Okay you can't search for a guild in the private message. For example type in Seren and click search. It will pop up with serendipity, the dev. If you type in Safehold. It will pop up with my corp.
4/17/2018 Topic: Not grasping some concepts ChaChaCharms	The discord group is mainly text. I am on it during business hours in the US Mau my cuz I'm at my desk at work. Glad it's not voice.. there is a voice channel for it though IIRC.
4/17/2018 Topic: Not grasping some concepts ChaChaCharms	And honestly the best way to learn is by doing. This would help you get into the groove and 50m is not bad of an investment if it encourages a player to continue the game
4/17/2018 Topic: How does one actually apply to join a Guild? ChaChaCharms	Also what browser are you using, idk if that makes a difference or not. But I am on mobile using chrome and I just tried a private message and typed in a few letters and it gave me a list of 10 corps to select from. If you can get on discord tomorrow I can send you pics of what my screen looks like
4/17/2018 Topic: Contracts Small Update ChaChaCharms	Read them contracts before you accept
4/18/2018 Topic: How does one actually apply to join a Guild? ChaChaCharms	Now now, we at ARK were saddened to see epoch go.. but as sure as the sun sets on earth, ARK will persevere
4/20/2018 Topic: Not grasping some concepts ChaChaCharms	Damn I liked you with the talk of chocolate and Irish whiskey... Now this.... good thing you are not based in Questa cuz we may have gotten hitched! Lol. To be fair I didn't blow up earth.. just obliterated about 2m population... but evergreen did his own share by just up and leaving..
4/20/2018 Topic: Not grasping some concepts ChaChaCharms	Hooded robes are in fashion btw.. I have a running shirt with a hood I will be wearing with a yoda hat at Disney
5/16/2018 Topic: Welcome to the Barons of the Galaxy Forum ChaChaCharms	Welcome! Make a post in the games comms section and let us know of any questions you have. We have some very experienced players here who can assist you with them!
6/14/2018 Topic: Game loop ChaChaCharms	Ermm I know that you would lose core members of this community. This would completely destroy the rich history that we have within the game. However, it would require much shorter build times in order to progress effectively throughout the game. I vehemently oppose this idea.
6/14/2018 Topic: Game loop ChaChaCharms	Tbh the corps who exploited game mechanics besides salvaging are gone. Gone are the corps who hit it big during broken events of the early days. The quest initiative is a good step forward, but perhaps something the game has involved into is the idea of how high can a city or system grow before it pops. Closing the least populated systems would go a long way in putting the game's best step forward.
6/25/2018 Topic: Splitting Salvage Between Attacker and Defender ChaChaCharms	I like the idea of a debris cloud similar to ogame. It would require an additional level of strategy where you need to have harvesters collect the debris cloud in space. This way anyone could really have a chance at *stealing* the booty.
7/1/2018 Topic: My Liquidated Funds... do not exits ChaChaCharms	Come on out to the Gulyaev System. We can have a care package ready for you in a short amount of time.
7/9/2018 Topic: Default Demand increase and City startups ChaChaCharms	Why cut demand in half at the magic number of 250? If product was 280 demand, it is now 140, how is this logical. I can see cutting 600-1000 demand in half but this just seems like a great way to drive players away. Instead of new content that you have promised is coming, you bring about FUNDAMENTAL changes to the way people make money (not the first time) and expect that to placate us until an unforeseen time that dazzle us with new actual useful and enjoyable content. Please consider creating a discussion with players to see how the effects of any changes will impact corps instead of just doing them... this may be your game and I know you are the developer, but some of us have been heavily invested in the game for well over a year now since launch and we do have insights in game mechanic changes that can be useful too.
9/6/2018 Topic: Leaving Earth..? ChaChaCharms	Or just get to lvl 2 and contact any of us at ARK. We provide plenty of start up capital consisting of cash (50m or more), acp (structure and military) as well as protection
9/19/2018 Topic: Rough Idea About Competition And Challanges ChaChaCharms	Is this still a when or is this an if.
11/5/2018 Topic: Major changes coming that will re-balance the game ChaChaCharms	I believe that limiting the ability of free players would be the perma-death of this game. There is a rarely a reason to be a paid account as it is. And this would simply force those who are playing together to leave like countless others have. Instead of limiting t2/3 products simply increase the amount of volume needed for all t1 products. Instead of water and foods make it all t1 products. There are not that many players left here and if you make these changes they will likely leave and you will be left with a lot of hard work and an unrealized potential for a fantastic game.
