Auto VOCATION Mode

well, its simple.
to get ride of all inactive acounts/multis of this GAME.
we place a AUTO Vocations Mode.
after X weeks without log in, you acount goes automaticaly to VOCATION Mode. PS: vocations mode do not delete you acount, just freeze it over time, do not let you be farmed/raided. if you wanna come back, its just log in, and it will become active, inactive peaple will LOSE nothing.

Consequences of this:
in MAIN,
-all inactive farms will go away, no more easy/mass farm or raid, you will have to live by farming active players (sounds fun), thats means, finaly some more skills/strategy needed.

In Ascension,
-inactive will lose half they bonus. unless they log in once a week.

In Chaos/ Quantum,
-same thing as main
new Sing soon.

I say get rid of all rank modifers for raiding in main, and all rank modifers period in assencion while youre at it, as theyre just gay.


Great idea.

Better yet, auto deletion if they stay innactive for 4-6 months, unless they actualy PUT htemselves on vac mode.

Vacation after one week of inactivity and deletion after three months of vacation.

This game has been destroyed by players insisting on keeping all the inactive accounts as farms. How many great players have quit out of the boredom this game has become. It was so much fun in the old days, but the inactive accounts removed any real skill from the game.

Now the game needs something, and although I would prefer a total reset, this might be a more realistic idea (although it will never happen).

Still it is nice to see someone coming up with an idea that isn't in his own interest but in the interest of the game.

I agree :-)... the innactive accounts don't do anything for the game, they simply sit there and get farmed...

i voted no and i will tell you why. the reason this updated should not be implemented is because all of you stronger players were able to raid these accounts as much as you wanted. now that you have your 50-75 million army size why would need them now? so to stay ahead of everyone else you want to boot the accounts that are not active and are not helping you so why keep them? before i sold my 1st account raiding these account was done by all and was the quickest way to grow. do not penalize the players who are starting over or are new to the game and need a chance to catch up and the only way to do it quickly is to raid small inactive accounts like most of you did while growing. how can a small player raid if there are too few fish in the sea?

i think you're trying to oversimplify it. there are so many things nobody has mentioned. this would have a huge impact on current game play and the future of the game.

most of the people i hit are inactive...makes it kinda boring lol. i voted for after 2 weeks they should be put on vacation mode because i think only a few thousand people are active out of the over 50000 accounts.

however if this is implemented there would also be a lot less planets, uu and naq in circulation for the new players. eventaully this will make the game very hard to break into, currently the inactive accounts are a stepping stone between being new and being able to hit actaul active players.

if this was implemented actual "raid", "planet" and "naq" targets should be randomly created (with high raid/planet/naq generation) and deleted within a week. they should be noticable (so u can tell it isnt just an average player), but you shouldn't be able to search for them using the name search function lol. they should also be of varying strengths (lots of weaker ones though to help noobs...like me) and appear in all types of rankings. why have these random accounts? so the new players can attack people when the first start.

another thing nobody pointed out, it will be way harder to ascend! can u imagine having to get into the top 2% if there were only 1000 active accounts? can u get in the top 20 lol? im currently going for my first ascention, all the people that have got to 10 before me would have a way easier time getting there than i would if this was introduced...but having said this, it's too easy to ascend because of all the inactive accounts and it will keep getting easier unless something is done now! so the percentage of who ascends and who doesn't would have to change.

id also like to see a minimum rank or percentile to create planets, i bet a lot of people just make accounts to steal planets from, it would be crap to indroduce this and all the low ranks are still filled with planet pumping multies.

its a lot better to say there are 50000 players!!! than saying there are 1000 players with 49000 in vacation!!! a large player base makes more players join, less players makes more players leave!

everyone loves to be in the top 1000 when there are 50000 players "playing", but when ur sorted out between all the active players, dont be surprised if ur not even in the top 750 out of 1000, i'd be ranked around 900 lol.

really a lot of things need to be thought about, the results of this poll are not made by people who show a true understanding of what they are voting for, so really the poll is void unless an admin wants to come and write every single wide spread impact on the game of doing this, because im sure there are way more than the ones i have touched on.

I say smart things so people don't realize how dumb i am.

I still say do it.


It'll make the game a challenge again.

When I first ascended, G&R was in the 700 ranks, now its in the 1000 or lower range basicly, which is WAY to easy to get into.

that will take some SKILLS, estrategy, planing.
Have a good alliance, a good CO(who don't remenber the time this counted).
wars coude make raid farms, farm for Naq will finaly requeire a strike.

thats whats wrong with this game, every1 want a easy way to grow, and you point is just for MAIN, chaos and QUANTUM, have resets

CURENT IN MAIN, you easily reach 50 Mill, than 75 Mill, than you is punished for you hard work, because to many lazy players. MASS farm is boring, you can get much more naq buying a proper strike and hit active players, just other dau i got 120 Bill from some1, that means 200k UNITS with 15 ats, take skills, strategy, planing...
new Sing soon.

I think the number of active players would be somewhere in the 5-10k region... ascensions totally stuffed atm anyways... it would need to be changed to make it possible.
