Petition to get tiny inactive accounts deleted

It's been a very long time since those accounts haven't been deleted, and we are now around 100,000 accounts, and like 1/4 of them AT LEAST have never been used, are unusable for ressources for anyone, and are causing a lag that gets worse and worse every week.

I mean by those accounts:

Older than 3 monthes,
Unlogged in for at least 2 monthes (if ever relogged in!),
Below 15k army size,
Having an UP < 3,
Unascended,
Not having SS or spent any cent in this game.

As a note, I think a short mention should be put about this in the Game Rules if it goes through. A short sentence about inactive account purges, may save headaches later.

Re: Petition to get tiny inactive accounts deleted

To people who are temptated to vote let them in active ranks, have a look at which accounts I refer to :)
Not uu/naq farms, people who didn't support game with $$/€€, people who at max logged twice in their accounts...

Re: Petition to get tiny inactive accounts deleted

Thanks for support to people who voted/will vote delete (or those who will vote vacate them). Much appreciated for the game and community! :)

Hopefully the "yes" options will win, well for now it's in good way at least. 8)

Re: Petition to get tiny inactive accounts deleted

It would be very good!
I had same idea, but never posted. but i like it more drastic, maybe like this:

Older than 3 monthes, - agree
Unlogged in for at least 2 monthes (if ever relogged in!), - agree
Below 15k army size, - below 50k
Having an UP < 3, - UP less than 1k
Unascended, - it could be ascended with inacive ascended account
Not having SS or spent any cent in this game.

More aggressive deleting could cause more fight and more player-vs-player action.. would be better. More like Stargatewars. ;)

Well that would mean more work for admin :-D
Also, ascended account with inactive ascended account are accounts that got given some attention in past (they were built to be ascended, accounts I refer to are those never/barely logged in/worked up again).

Re: Petition to get tiny inactive accounts deleted

Well it's not only ME chasers that suffer from the lag, since it also concerns alliance attack logs, command center and inbox...hence why it's very important!

And it was addressed from time to time already, but in game suggestions, or along with other suggestions..now it got its own topic! 8) :-D

Re: Petition to get tiny inactive accounts deleted

As far as I know, the lag is not caused by the inactive accounts as the turn script does not rank them as active accounts so deleting them won't make the lag less.


Earendil knows more about the ranking script as it was his idea to flag inactive accounts.
