Still doesnât make sense that Poseidon, ruler of the seas, takes damage underwater
Iâm imagining a human walking on the street then suddenly clutching his chest. âGASP! AIR! MY ONE WEAKNESS.â
proceeds to melt into the sidewalk
I think he is more like a beach god who never went to swim
Hi zephyr1
Just want to see the attributes of the Oct and Nov HOTMs but donât see it in your threads⊠could you please assist. Thanks
On another note, i see in some alliances that players have been inactive for more than 600 days⊠would it be possible to deactivate these players and make room for real players? Thanks
Their info and stats are in the threads about them:
I donât think Small Giant ever typically removes inactive players from alliances, but depending on their roles in the alliance, Elders, Co-Leaders, or the Leader can remove them.
Thank you as always. Didnât realise I needed to expand the arrow⊠seeing âuselessâ
For the inactive players I think it would help if any player inactive for more than two years - and who has not injected any $ in the game be kicked out⊠will create space in your database hey? Thanks again.
Thatâs unfair. Some people play games in intervals. You canât just take all their time and money investment away by kicking them from the game.
Youâve gotta want it and work for it.
To be clear, I donât work for Small Giant, so I have no say on that, and canât speak to how they choose to manage their player databases.
I do know that the Terms of Service say they can delete inactive accounts, I just donât think they actually tend to do that in practice.
Typically the main complaint people have is that alliance leaders who stop playing arenât automatically kicked or demoted. That makes for a zombie alliance thatâll never be able to have new Leader or new Co-Leaders promoted, or have a full team roster of active players â and the only way to fix it is to create a new alliance and have everyone migrate. There are many, many threads about that in Ideas & Feature Requests.
Thereâs also at least one thread about removing inactive alliances: Remove inactive Alliances
I also found this one small thread thatâs more generically about automatic removal of inactive players, though there are probably others too: Auto remove player from alliance after 30 days last time in game
Thanks⊠Iâm precising⊠for players who did not put money and have not played for more than 2 years.
Thank you again⊠the last point does make sense.
Why remove them from the game immediately? It is enough to remove such a player only from the alliance. If he wants to come back, he will come back and find another alliance while keeping the money and account.
Because if theyâre in the database, they are subject to be matched up in raids and war, (down the road) as more alliances go zombie.
If we look to the future of where SGG is currently headed with their âimprovementsâ, it is likely that entire alliances will cease to play. This could cause more and more havoc in matchmaking.
The alliance score being used to match in war somewhat can counter this, because the score decrease over time.
Still, it is something to think about, and address.
That would be easy to address. Auto opt out of war if inactive for a period of time and do the same with raid matches after an even longer period of time, or just prioritise active players. Either way solves it without booting anyoneâs progress
I canât speak for raiding, but I know non-participation in a certain number of wars will drop inactive members. I had one member who would join, do nothing for like 3 wars (which was super annoying because he had a great bench meaning we always fought harder alliances without his help), then rage because âI canât participate in wars for some reason.â
I think inactive players arenât raided either after a certain point. I forget where I heard it from, but I think thatâs the case too.
So zombie accounts donât contribute to much after a cut off point.
Well⊠i was excited seeing a new beta beat thread⊠until I realized v22.1 is way over.
Ugh same! I saw August HOTM and jumped the gun. Sigh
