inactivity deletion again in r9.5?
with this free round can you add the inactivity-deletion again? I think it's only fair that for something you did not pay for you get deleted when you are inactive for over 7 days. This would get rid of all the leftover inactives from r9 and of all new players that join and then go inactive.

good thought, there will be a slew of ppl with old rd9 accounts who arent gonna play, plus the usual new ppl who sign up and then dont do anything.

It will be completely free to new players/accounts aswell, they will also (ofcourse) start with full techtree and 18 roids.
Hence why people are talking about spreading the word to mates and such

7 days inactivity is already way too long for the start of a round but for a round with full tech trees instated it would be ridiculous. Planets that do not login during first 24 hours should get 'exile for free' status or something.

I like this better, the inactives should be exiled after not login in the first 24 hrs.

we cant just exile the inactive every 24 hour. when they get exiled they get placed in another gal who will get a problem with them..
i say we delete them, or exiles them to "inactive gals". gals filled with inactives.. and if they start getting active again they can exile themself into an active gal

Not every 24 hours !! First 24 hours. If they stay inactive for longer periods they should be deleted.
It is good to place people that get exiled by their galm8s in low cluster gals and let the people that exile themselves fill availalbe places. That way empty spots are most likely filled with at least decently active players.

I.m.o.: delete all players that have not logged in between universe creation and tick start. Not much harm is done, since sign up is free and it will allow people to start in an active gal.

along with a reshuffle at tick start that would probably be the best solution, as all the inactives from r9 would be gone and future inactives just drop by the 7-days-rule.

Yes, but how often? Will it be every-two-weeks-if-we-think-of-it or something more aggressive?

Why not
delete the whole Universe?? The ones of us who are gonna play r 9.5 will sign up again. This way we cannot argue on it being a paid product etc.

I got the impression that it would be back to the same period as it was before.

If accounts are to be exiled or deleted if a player hasnīt logged in the first 24 hours of the game - then make sure to give all a fair notice about when R9.5 starts! I am going away this week-end and would hate to return on Monday to find my account has been deleted! :eek:
