What have the PA crew been doing ffs?!!
I seriously do wonder whether they even bother to look at what they are doing when it comes to planetarion. Let me give you one example:
All fellow Zikonians please look in the production screen at the corsair. What does it say? Yes thats it. Its the one that claims to target fighters. REALLY? you mean to say you sent lots of corsairs at a planet with fighters and didn't get a SINGLE one?!! Well you must be a noob then. Clearly anybody who pays any attention to what the people at planetarion have written for any of the ships are noobs.
But, wait, isn't the point of this round to get noobs and old players to join? Not much good when the creators don't seem to give a toss about it. Luckily I did not fall into this trap, but it is a fairly big hole that I am sure has swallowed up a number of new players already. So here is my message to Spinner and co:
PULL YOUR GODDAMN FINGER OUT!

I would LOVE to knwo what difference that makes. The PA crew/team/whatever u wanna call the lazy people running PA have done so little to the game except for changing a few stats around, adding in one or 2 ships, and this is since round SEVEN! Look at the marauder for instance, it is a frigate yet it is still in between the clipper and rogue on the production screen. It is shear laziness!

Lightly armoured super fast Swarmer fighter, armed with 2 very light guns, targetting not tailored to other Fighters.

You appear to have missed the meaning of the word 'not'.

Targeting not tailored to other fighters
tailored means designed
So Targeting not designed for other fighters
So Not designed for targeting fighters
So Does not target fighters

I asked about that one a while back, it is intentional - keeping all the steal ships together.

Funny because if that is the meaning, why was it exactly the same as that when it used to target fighters?

Firstly as I said I did not fall for it but there are plenty of newbies who will not undertsand the manual, etc, and as this round is meant to bring in the newbies yes it does matter.
AND YES CORSAIRS USED TO TARGET FIGHTERS! Used to go Fr, Co, Fi iirc

He made us all look at the production screen though.
A quite effective troll post.

Trolling is banned on the forum.
Did you know that?
In addition, despite whether the information on the production screen is flawed or not, not all ship information is given on that screen, therefore, it is logical to assume that to gain the full picture of the game, one would be expected to consult the manual, where ship stats and information about the game are listed in full.
Now. What you must understand is that PATeam is not infallible. It doesn't claim to be, it doesn't want to be nor should it be. You cannot expect perfection from an imperfect being. And you cannot expect perfection from someone who you treat like ****. It's just not fair.
If you have criticism don't troll and moan because that's stupid. it means that no one will like you however much noise you make. Point out the mistake kindly and it'll be dealt with and you'll have a friend.
Additionally, I don't think a newbie is going to be too concerned about what targets what at the moment, most are probably feeling their way around the game at the moment, and as such, they are likely to make mistakes, and they are likely to realise that PATeam make mistakes too.
Get a clue.

I've no idea what his problem is, as the Production screen is correct.

Someone made rather a fool of themselves in posting this thread it seems
If you're going to be an arrogant troll, at least make sure you're correct
