To sum it up for those faggot who are too lazy/ stupid to lurk around gathering information, whining like little kids, believing misleading information, etc:

Why did this happen:

1. Commie english patch messing around with API file (highly unlikely, but possible, it's unconfirmed that people who use commie patch got banned)

2. Prevent cheating, botting, etc. Also reduce heavy load on their sever.

3. Force player to visit DMM to play.

4. Some, or all of the reason above.

This is by no mean a gaijin purge.

How to "legitimately" play KanColle for us gaijin, my third world internet connection do me just fine with both methods:

1. Using VPN and play through DMM. If it's just web surfing, etc, then using VPN all the time isn't much of a problem, unless you're, downloading, torrenting, playing on a toaster or having Australia-tier internet.

Disconnected your VPN while playing on DMM will get the same result as playing it with API.

2. Get API link every 30 min - 1:30 hours. Depends on how you play.

It seem like if you're playing continuously then the API will only last 30 minutes. If you take break between 10 minutes playing, it will last longer. The longest possible time is 1:30 hour, after that you've to get the API link again.

I don't remember the exact detail of the hypothesis and also too lazy to scroll down below and get the source.

Playing on KCV is highly discouraged for various reason.

Still feel like missing something, but for now that's everything I can remember, feel free to correct my shitty engrish and input some information below.
