Dear Ninja, With most of our community activity taking place in Discord in recent years, on top of an onslaught of spam bots on the forum these days, we've decided to move all community activities to our Discord server. For years now, we've been slowly transitioning to it as the way we communicate with our players. It's become the default mode of communication for gamers everywhere in 2024, so it makes the most sense to just move it all there. Click here to join our discord server Best Regards, Ueda

@Erox

2024, this is being worked on now!

I'll look into why this happened, but for now your purchase has been refunded to ninja credits.

Great video! Shared it on our discord

Sorry that this happened to you. Yeah, sometimes there's false positives for spam, it's trying to be safe rather than sorry.

This has since been fixed! Thank you!

This has been resolved, thank you!

That's sweet Nagamushi. But you're still on my naughty list.

Dear Ninja, We've just launched a brand new major feature - Guilds! Guilds are player organizations where you can contribute towards a common goal, and build towards a large community of like-minded individuals, collectively getting more powerful. Be warned that guild names cannot be changed and owners cannot be transferred without restarting. Guild Features Guild Perks Guilds comes with many cool features, like Guild Ranks, Guild Emblems, Bulletin Boards, Guild Chat Channel, Friendly Fire Toggling, Alliances and more, all unlockable through the Guild Perks System. Guild Emblems There are hundreds of customizable pieces to choose from to create your guild's unique emblem. With the current pieces, there are a whopping 400,000+ possible combinations of Guild Emblems to create, not even including color options! Creating a Guild Creating a guild can be done through the Guild menu by Gold & Silver Ninja. It costs 10,000 Ryo. Conclusion With this Nin Online is now complete faction-wise. You are born into the ninja world alone, but you choose a village to be born in, choose a clan (family) to be born as, join a corporation as an occupation and join or create your own guild, which is like your friend circle, and find teams to go on short-term missions with. We hope you enjoy this new feature!

You'll need a GM to manually debug you, if you see Erox or myself online we'll come to you, just PM us!
