I beleive you should be able to babysit accounts moving forward can an ADMIN explain whether or not this will or will not be implemented in the future?

- Don't need to share passwords add an option to account sit within the game, because this is a game you for the most part need to play each day we can't all be around all the time I would love to continue playing but at times can't be around (I.e weekend/holidays etc.)

- Time line - in other games where account sitting is accepted there are always time lines such as if its a 2 month reset max account sitting you can do would be 2 weeks or whatever..

I feel as though this is something that needs to be debated moving forward


Thoughts?

Allow babysitting? uh no.

If you war someone your going to want to get kills, not waste turns and find out someone is babysitting the country walling your attacks.

As one with a job that can on occasion make him inaccessible for varying lengths of time, sitting would improve my game experience, at least for the shorter absences.
And, Monsters, do not forget to specify, when time and place shall serve, that I am an ass.

What legit game out there that would allow sitting? Seriously?

Risk is a part of the game, if we take out the risk of dying, people would stop playing.

travian is a -legit- game that allows sitting.

It is an interesting concept to discuss and i do feel its debate worthy.

If there were a proper baby sitting system, there could be built in constraints as to what the sitter can do with the sittee's country.

Like, maybe they have to wait 10 hours after the owner logged out to do anything... Or limit how many turns can be used or for how long they can sit for.

Something like this might get rid of tag kills by making it a bit harder to kill someone... Especially if the best wallers sit each other, heh.

too bad things like this wont get debated on this dead forum. bugs/suggestions would have been a better one to post this on.

an in-game no-password-sharing system with limits like zarcon said might be something we could discuss going forward; but we absolutely do not believe people should be sharing accounts or account information
Finally did the signature thing.

how about and automatic "Oh fluff I'm getting killed" mode. You can customize it to spend all your cash buying up and give pop limits to wall etc. etc

If there were incredibly strict limits... like: Can log in once every 18 hours for 15 minutes. Can not log-in until 18 hours have passed since last owner log-in, owner cannot log-in for 18 hours after sitter has logged in.

Sitting should *not* be a replacement for being an active player though. Using it should be a disadvantage from regular play... not an advantage in addition to regular play.
