Kixeye established the Reputation Points System initially. Eventually Kixeye decided to convert Reputation Points into a "Uranium", a resource held in warehouses. They initially said Uranium would be able to be stolen from you like any other resource. This move by them which obviously was intended to encourage base attacks, as have other developments of theirs such as alliance points, medals, etc. The uproar from the players was substantial and Uranium theft was initially postponed, hopefully cancelled forever! But I personally doubt it, Kixeye will likely get around to trying to slip it past us somehow.

When Reputation Points were added to the requirements to Retrofit hulls in the Retrofit Lab it was only for Draconian hulls. Recently Kixeye has added two Forsaken hulls and is charging Uranium to Retro fit them (Vindicator and Sawfish). This is in direct conflict with the rules for hull retrofits THEY established! I am strongly against them establishing procedures for the playing of this game and then suddenly and capriciously changing the established procedure on a whim!

Hopefully, Kixeye will relent and play by their own rules or procedures THEY established in the first place. But, I tell you with certainty that WILL NOT HAPPEN if my voice is the only one howling in the wilderness. If you are also complaining shout louder and more often. Encourage your friends and alliance members to complain, again loudly and often. Kixeye has shown a willingness to listen. But never to whispers, they only hear loud and continuous complaints about specific issues they can control in a cost efficient way. Fixing this is only a few lines of code, not millions of dollars in better servers for smoother play.

So please get behind this. Or before you know it you will need to use Uranium to do all sorts of things!
