I agree. It would eliminate a lot of good farms, but make the game more interesting when you find you just hit someone who can threaten you with the wrath of X or Y alliance, and everything just escalates from there

Heres an idea youve just discovered inactive players (hmm free naq) instead of complaining about them start farming them.

Hey, I just made 3 billion naq and 15k UU today off inactive players. Yet I still would see this as a better game if they were removed. I have my opinions as you have yours

but it is these inactive players that allow newbies to make profit and so rise up the ranks, the big boys don't farm as much because of repair costs and when your new you don't have much self income, how would you recommend the newbies make naq then?

not everyone who has that many turns is inactive. How can that annoy you so much its just a number, you can use it as an indication to whether or not its safe to steal their naq.

Of course the real issue is what would be point of getting rid of inactives. If your ever thinking about ascending then the more players in the game actually helps you because its a percentage of total players that decideds which ranks get the glory and reputation points.

Glory and Reputation Points
In Quantum, the top 100 still get the 'G&R' points.
In the main server:
The top 1 player gets 10 per turn.
The top .15% (ranked players times .0015) get 5 points.
The top 1.5% (ranked players times .015) get 1 point. It is acknowledged that as the game grows, getting into the top 10 or 100 is harder, so in order for the Ascension server to be more attainable, this decision was made.

from what I worked out the other day you have to find the last player their currently on page 1040 so their rank is 29651 then times that by 0.015 and then you have the rank you need to get the points which is at the moment top 444

So thats why I calculated it a bit off... Because I used the total player amount myself not realising that it also includes the unranked
33,853 players total | page 12 of 1,129
