I've got the same problem: the nests aren't clickable. I've tried all the fixes in this thread. Changed instances, logged out, quit the game, ported to stronghold. I've reset the quest about ten times and even abandoned it and started over twice. Nothing works. No idea what to do now. Maybe I'll try another character if I feel like slogging through the first quest again. Edit: It finally worked, but I don't know what I did differently. It just worked this time. Which is no help to anyone having problems. Just keep trying, I guess.

Something similar happened to me a couple months ago. I accidentally expanded a stronghold with CCs when I intended to use credits. No warning popped up. When I realized what I'd done I was very bummed and contacted support. Predictably, I was told sucks to be you. So yeah. there really should be a warning when purchasing with CC because there definitely wasn't one for me.

That was my understanding as well. The question, for me, is whether participation is optional. I really hope so because I hate the possibility that my characters' alignments will now be determined by killing random pirate #24789 rather than his or her story choices.
