I have received a little more information on this from a couple of CSR's this morning.

It seems that the caps were not raised, but at about the time the patch hit there were some problems on a few servers where cities dropped below the required count needed for a shuttleport. It seems that since the shuttle does not dissapear immediatly, even though the city lost it's residents, another city 'earned' a rank 4 position and was able to place a shuttle.Since the city that fell regained residents before the shuttle decayed, they also have a shuttle.

It seems this has happened several times, but usually with only one city at a time... the rare exception must be on Eclipse where it happened to 4 cities at once. They decided to leave the shuttles in place due to the "bug" so no one would feel shafted.

I am not sure if this is the case everywhere, but the CSR stressed this it isnot intentional and that caps were not raised. It certainly makes sense... "@$!&# buggy game"...

If anyone has any other information please post it here... also if we could get word from our correspondant about this it would be welcomed.

oh wellyes, it seems that i'm terribly mistaken ... too bad, but where i'm not mistaken is when i see my bestpoeple and friend quitting the game, too bored of bugs and such things... i love this game, but i hate to see how it is handled... even our most dedicated mayor wanna quit now and stay just to help...

baah, it's with mistake that we learn things, too bad some poeples don't learn anything of thair mistake

anyway... i guess you misunderstand me on the "usefull" comment... i didn't ask for an usefull comment, they are already usefull,

i asked if someone could report this te devs and have a final statement on what's going on, and where we are going regarding those kind of case(whatever they fixsomething or not)

so do not misunderstand me on this please

Your statement was easily construed as a slam at the able correspondant who works very hard at helping the community get their voice heard. It isn't always possible for correspondants to get direct answers to questions relating to CS tickets and rulings. Many times we get no reply or the same reply you did. Don't ever think that just because you didn't get a personal reply from a correspondant that they aren't working to get these issues resolved, but our primary purpose is to take those issues to the devs, not always to get specific answers. When we do get them we share them.

Pappi is a fantastic correspondant and she is tirelessly bringing up issues for your community. As a mayor and politician I'm thrilled to have her representing me.
