I still think that if a player goes beyond active in the last month, war levels should be dropped and raids allowed.

I third the motion

Let's see if we can get a whole long list of players asking for this. Both war and econ players.

It would be a sensible move to reduce the frustration of war players without affecting any active econ player. Stay active and you keep protected. So less bickering between war and econ, and sorry Mr GM but those assets have been bought and paid for (or given away by yourselves) so why shouldn't they stay in the game? It costs a pretty penny to take inactives. It would stimulate the war related industries, benefitting everyone.

YAY!

As currently only an economic player, I would support the motion of 1 month in active but also to be no less than 1 month from the expiry of war protection, which any outstanding allowance should automatically be used after 2 weeks of inactiveness.

This is practically means:

Last active sign in + 2 weeks + war protection allowance outstanding + 1 month.

At each stage, an email should be sent to the player informing them of the stages.

Why the extra 2 weeks or month?
You get 1 month before inactive shows. You have any accumulated WP and that should be that. At war level 3 or above this would be the case, once youre inactive and no WP you could be raided. So no, no additions just because a country is below WL 3.

I was slightly confused, mixing up old parts of the game.

An email at 2 weeks warning of potential inactive status nearing, which would open the country to raids.

I would reccommend any accumulated WP be applied when the country when inactivce status is applied.

Perhaps countries nearing reset after losing the president could be published in the Security Council pages. A minimum time is then allowed for attempts to conquer.

Yeah that would be a great idea, that way I would get the much needed cash for my countries. But if the player returns beyond last month and realizes his country or empire is almost gone, its his own fault for not looking after it often.

I agree with the 1 month deadline, and encouraging all players to ask for this...the more the merrier.

Faulty? Wendy, please expound.

Come on, dont tell us you object to raiding assets of gone players before they are lost to the game.

Its not greed, its just another way of growing. Is having CEO economies greed because you find they make more money than learning how to run state econs?

IPO-ing is greed?

Playing the direct trade market is greed?

And the list goes on.

I call it fair competition.

unless we can weaken him by proposing a trade embargo on him for a while through a security council vote.

Me thinks BC has a lil obsession over Bobo. lol He's left the game, BC.... you waste your time. Although I'm sure he would find it hilarious that you think of him often. Your obsession ranks up there with WildEyes and Nix. (smiles) hmmmmmmmmmmm could it be....? ha ha ha ha ha

Bad Idea. For one, people have countries throughout their empire that have not logged into for a month and they show as inactive. But their main is active.

Maybe the time-frame is at issue here, 3 to 6 months inactivity sounds better.

And the idea stinks because people do not learn from fighting inactive countries. They also fail to learn econ because there is sooo much raiding to do. It is a double edge sword.

It would really benefit new players. Old players should have their stuff together.


Learn to play the game on BOTH sides. Econ and war. You can fight each other and gain assets and not need to covet all those goods.

That is just how I feel CC, don't take my head off or anything. :)

I agree with the proposal but I agree with Wendy about presidents not logging into every country. I think the empire should be "inactive" after a month if the President hasn't logged into the main in that time. This would put the slave countries open to raid.
