New players marked *TAG*

So the idea is, newly registered players are marked with a red sign like NEW or NOOB or something, for a small period of time.
This way they can be quickly spotted and recruited into an alliance, before they quit/go inactive.

What do you think?

Re: New players marked

The noob part is a joke on my side, but otherwise i think its a good idea - and can be done with little programming?

Re: New players marked

The coding is already there because new accounts can't take/lose planets for 30 days. Could be a nice idea though I fear there would be those that would especially target new players for fun.

Re: New players marked

Have another script attached with the same attacking limits as perg for the 30day period.

Doing it this way means

1, They cant be massed unless its a team effort
2, It stops Multis from being able to bug people with unascended accounts

For the second reason I would also make it set to 30 days logged in not just 30 day from sign up. Makes players want/have to play more to get rid of the limits and stops people just making accounts and waiting 30 days to cause trouble.

Re: New players marked

Yeah I like it. That would restrict people attacking you and you attacking people. That seems fair. It might annoy a new person raiding though. So maybe make it 10 hits or something per person.

Re: New players marked

yeh that sounds like a decent number but that would mean taking out sab + lifer for the 30 days coz with 10 hits from either side you can do some damage.

Re: New players marked

I can't think of any downside to the idea, except maybe people specifically targeting new players.

Boa the problem is u can broker uu away while u mass these defences. Remember these planets mean ppl can build massive strikes with cs built with so little uu.

I do like the idea of marking new players out the problem is trusting that they really are new players.

Re: New players marked

New players already can't steal planets. Make it so that for the first month they can only hit specific accounts 10 times per day and another account can only hit them 10 times per day (number of 10 can vary). Kinda like perg except they can still interact with the rest of the game. That way targeting is a lot more difficult unless you get a gang of your friends to all hit the same small account.

@Death, do you really have to be a jerk in a suggestion thread?
