Today evening ( monday )
online users show just 100 less than permanent record (2435).
Saturday and sunday same time just half of todays "official" user counts.
So monday evening double amount of user online than at weekend?

But I get no spy, no one is taking pirats every chat is quiet,
 
no fleets at cords.
My online detection just shows 15 User near me online.
In last Record time there where 40.
At Record time I was online. Met other player 50 times a day.
the whole game was full action.

Today all quiet.
maybe it is time to make it interresting again ?

Make less fuel costs and bigger Pirats and you do not
need to fake user counts.

Got 11 messages from friends to change the GAME.
What the hell are you doing?
 
This fake online member count does not create action. ! ! !
IT IS BORING BORING BORING

i agree with you ..

Is rafael nadal reach the quarter final in us open...??

It is difficult to understand why they
first make the game boring and than
push the unreal online user amounts.

Indeed , can be more interesting, to do some more action and some more options , less cost of some mutants to little easier build bigger ships , to do something more exciting , to do more damage and more Adrenalin , all this is possible  but its up to you Admins to do that , Mantrid 10 k , cost is unreal , Chuchkhe  2500 also is totally unreal , most of things here are really to expansive , give as little freedom and possibility to play and enjoy , you benefit from our exciting so why want you do it ? , pirates are way to small , Market place use to be 12 ,14 pages , now they are hardly 3 or 4 pages, even you want to buy , you can't , why is this all happening ?Do they want take game off ????

Come on , Stop be Greedy and let as enjoy for your own benefit .

I use to play game Dark Orbit , also Greedy Admins (German owners), way to expansive everything , but less they have special prices and discounts , special offers time to time , sad there are to many hackers and kids using mods and staff like that , so make this game to not much joy .

i saw a ios game that was a same copy of this game may be the users combined 
?

Its real counter, not fake. If you don't see action - capture planet inside enemy alliance and you will see action against you.

Not a bug.
