WHY??!!!

why does this game log you out after about 20 min of no activity when turns are 30 min each i hate having to log in for each and every turn plus what is the point of User names AND email address's
the numbers i can understand as an anti bot script and passwords are pretty much a given for why but why user names and email addresses why not just use one or the other sense the username is apparantly the userid part of the email address (the part before the @ )

Emmmmmm Emmmmmmmmmm

First off the game logs you out becuase if it left everyone in all the time it would slow it down for everyone if you look towards the left column under your race section and the google ads you will see 717 people playing! (numbers at the moment) so if it let EVERYONE like yourself who log in and then not look at the screen for 30 mins or a hour it would severely slow down the game... Especially for those on Dial Up... So thats why


As for your problem of having to type it alllllllll out again the inconvience of 10 seconds of your life wasted :roll: turn on your autocomplete in your browser.. And Beliskner is right, you do only need the first letter in you username

one how does being loged in slow down the system? it only has to do any work when you perform an action and as for multis don't they have to log out of one charater to log into a second? as for script users it would be simple to write a script to click a page ever 5 or 6 min (or at least it would be for those who can write scripts to play games) again whats the point of useing both username and email address? and my auto complete doesnt work on this site for some reason plus the script useing multis as you said would be stoped by the numric entry in the log in

High-school taught:
John Calvin. He's one of the fathers of Protestantism, preacher from Geneva, foremost defender of the concept of 'predestination' ('everything has been decided and follows the Divine plan').


As for the topic... meh, I get logged out like every 5 minutes and I don't care. :) Autocomplete, or that first letter, either works. Autocomplete kicks in after 1 letter anyways, so...
