So, in the target list in the AtkShop there are a lot of un-attackable people due to the 60 day time out. Is there a way to clear their names from the list? Or maybe get their name to go under a different column?

Just a thought.
RenegadeNukes
Sounds like a good idea to me smile.gif
Bone
Lots of other targets are avaliable that you cannot see in the targets range
Psycrow
And how do you find them?
Bone
Depends. Top 10 Richest attackers. Member profile and posts.

Should users who haven't played IBPro Battle be removed automatically when they don use the feature for 60+ days?
perry10
They should be, does anyone know how to though?
flaco46
That would be an admin thing. But I that would be great to remove those inactive ones.
perry10
Yeah, who should we talk to about that?
RustPuppet
Um, a staff member?

I'll have a look if it's possible under the AtkShop settings.

No.What if the come back online?
Psycrow
I don't think it would remove their progress through the rankings just from the target list so you can't attempt to attack them and it says "cannot attack someone who has been inactive for 60 days"

But when they come back they're in the list.

Did that make any sense?
Moo
Oh. That seems to be a good idea.

People, these are NOT valid posts!
They dont add any value to this topic at all. If you wanted to reply, reply with something more substantial.

Any more one line crap from any of you and warnings will be coming your way.

i think the inactive targets should be removed. how's this sound. Remove them, and then if they want to start playing again, they have to start back at level 1?
Gitano
Good post Perry, reformation is happening biggrin.gif

Yeah sounds like an alright idea.... BUT wouldn't that really discourage users from ever coming back? I mean if I went away on holiday or something, Id like to stick my account as disabled, and then when I get back, I start again from where I was, because everyone else has had time to get past you.

I think that one SHOULD be allowed to attack inactive targets rather... Would help newbies to move up in the rankings a LOT.
perry10
Being able to attack inactive targets isn't a bad idea, but I still think they should be removed, having everyone on the targets list being active just keeps the game more interesting, but maybe we should have a vote on it and go from there?
cyfermaster
Doesn't look like you can remove the inactive players from the targets list. you can however remove the restriction on attacking inactive players.
RenegadeNukes
We should be able to attack em!
cyfermaster
Dude, it won't help you. You are already too many levels above them for it to be worthwhile for you to be able to attack them. It will only be valuable to new comers to the game, and I am reluctant to let them be able to attack them. I have my reasons... If Rusty et al are fine with it, then so be it.

I'm aware, i'm thinking about the benifit it will have for new playes (and my guild mates)

But in general if it goes yay, if it doesn;t happen, well nvm

Cyf: what are the inactive players gaining by being inactive?
Before we had the bank it was a great safeguard for your gil, but now I dont really see a whole lot of advantage?

Also if you were inactive for 60 days to qualify for the inactive guard, most of the gil in your profile would have been wiped out anyway smile.gif People will have smelt the blood in the water tongue.gif

Besides when / if they do come back, they will have a helluva load of gil in the bank - so they wouldn't really care about losing the gil earlier
perry10
looks like we're going to have some people moving up the list if we can eventually attack them!!
Gitano
Nukes, you can become an inactive voluntarily without the 60 inactivity period.

That is 1 reason why I don't want to enable it so you can attack inactive players. Inactive players will earn interest on the gil in their bank, but they would end up using that gil to move up the ranks if they became active again. I for one don't want to have like a zillion kills against me if I go away, and then come back after a while.
Surge
I reckon if you voluntarity took yourself outta the game, then you should not be subject to attack, but if you are automatically made not able to be attacked, then the newbies should be able to attack and move up the rankings...
cyfermaster
hmm.... it looks like they are different. You don't become inactive. You actually stop playing.... You can then start playing again at a later stage.
