I have seen this happening on the FB servers, is this now happening across all Plarium servers?

Hello.

No, it's not :) People here just want to discuss the feature itself.

So somehow i skipped past this - it is not happening on this server?  If it does happen will all Marshalls be notified or will it just be posted on the forums where only a small percentage of players will see it?

Hello.

When the feature is added to the game, the News will be posted on the Forum, plus added to the game.

Moreover, you'll be able to see the activity of your League in The Embassy > My League > Warriors window.

get rid of all the dead weight

There are hundreds of dead leagues they could remove first - all of those with level zero forts or who have never built forts, also any league with inactive marshals or zero influence points ....

.... but why force all leagues to remove CASUAL players? There is no need for this and nobody ever asked for this

The dead weight is harmless. We have been told that their defense does not participate in beacon or fort attacks anyway - If just sits there and watches the battle with a packet of popcorn

deadweight contributes to fortress defense, and fortresses are the current projection of power in the game.  

take a look at LOTBR onm server 2,  who has about 75% inactives. they remain in the top 5 ranked leagues based on their level 20 fortress, but they arent a top league. 

the inactives defending the fortress is what keeps it at level 20 keeping them in the top 5.    since the fortresses have an offensive attack cap, they are just gonna sit there in the top ranks as a dead league.

this is the one update that would rebalance the game . 

Yep, I'm sure it will have some affect on the top leagues on the other servers too, as many of them have a fairly high number of inactives.

Of course one consideration for Plarium is that many of the big spenders want to leave a legacy by buying a bunch of defense for their league before they quit the game to help hold their beacons/fortress, and this update could prevent that.  

Careful what you wish for or plarium will take this as an excuse to add fortresses to beacon massacre

We will all end up with level one beacons and level 8 forts

Game Over

but all they need to do to avoid dismissal is to demote biggest inactives to neophyte and keep enough active alt accounts to stay above 60%
We all know that HN has dozens of alts

But anyway we digress, Can't be bothered to reiterate the whole thing..................

The game is in a complete mess due to the imbalance of offence over defence. Why people (mainly Plarium in this case) suggest going out of there way to further handicap defence is to miss the major problems facing the game.

WHEN and IF are not the same. Can you confirm that there are plans to add this to Dark Plains. All the talk of here and there just muddies the water

Given most long players are dropping out of the game from bordem is it worth starting to share the product roadmap with us?

Even beta games from tiny developers have schedules of planned content releases and updates as to how these are coming.

Plarium communication - zero. In so many ways you need to start valuing your customers and treating us well (or at least at a level your average competitor does).

Alina Phoenix said:

I don't see that Sergey told that these features will be added to plarium.com servers soon. 

Yes, they more likely will be added in the future, but not in the near future.

Sergey made 2 posts on this subject. One was later edited and the other was deleted

However, something needs to be done to remove inactive League Marshals in Stormfall, but 14 days is absurd
No player should be automatically classified as inactive unless they have failed to login for a month or more

If the marshal cannot be replaced with an active league officer then the league should be dismissed
This should be your first priority, The full feature should never be added here without a lot of changes

Also, inactive defense returned from Fortresses needs to be sent directly to Catacombs, not Keeps

Hello.

We have a good tradition of sharing our plans for the new features and changes in the game at the end of the year.

Taking into account that the New Year is coming, we're working on the video with the plans for 2018 :)

Also, we're thinking about adding beta-testing for players in our games as well. So, chances are high that it will happen in the future :)

Since July of 2015 when I started play this game, I have hardly seen any significant or noteworthy changes or upgrades to the game to enhance the player expereince. I seen a lot of "improvement and changes" that been a push for players to spend more sapphires, but not to really enhance the gaming experience or give us more things to do. In case you missed it, players need to feel a sense of achievement and completion, or at least progress towards something. This game fail on every aspect of that, because the biggest hurdle for players is how much money they can afford to spend. And yet if they do, their mighty coined army might be gone in the blink of an eye from a much bigger coined one. 

Coining is fine in a game as long as it just compensate for "time and effort", but when "time and effort" can't compete with spending, you get serious problems. Earlier it was talk about some item in a thread that was supposed to be protection vs fireballs, and I asked you would it come with a price tag? You said you didn't know, but come on, we both know it will. 

Plarium does keep serve us NOTHINGBURGER, And it doesn't taste any good anylonger... (I'm sorry the image was considered trolling and removed, but you know a picture speak a thousand words, I guess I have to settle with capital letters).

Like Roadstar Pittbull I seem to have missed this tradition too. Now for your videos. I took some time and watched some of your youtube videos. Maybe Im just paranoid by nature, but quite a few of the "positive" comment sin the comment fields, seems like blatant self promotion from Plarium itself. Like someone give themself a positive review for own product. 

If Plarium want something else than coal in their xmas stockings this year, they better turn around for the better.

My league needs help, not nerfing

High level active players are leaving this game every day because plarium do not listen

But plarium only listens to the coiners and VIP customers

Normal players have no cash value, so we do not exist

There are such concepts as long-term plans and short-term plans. 

If we are to accept the above statement as true, then this:

If we talk about short-term plans, no devs don't plan to add this feature.

and this:

If we talk about long-term plans, yes, devs are considering this feature to be added to plarium.com as well. 

could well be considered spam, trolling or just plain old contradiction (just saying)

Hello!

So, what exactly is contradicting here? 

There are no short-term plans for adding this feature. It means that in the near future it won't be added.

But there are long-term plans for it. It means that in the future (not the near one) this feature is considered to be added to plarium.com as well.

Thanks for the reply, Alina.  I was not aware that that Fortress returns are sent to catacombs now.  Is this true for all troop return reasons, or only when the Marshal is the one that sends the troops home?   For example...if the player recalls the troops from the fortress or if the player is booted by another league member, with the fortress troops also return to the Catacombs?  Just looking for clarification :)

When you recall the Units from Fortress, they will be returned to Castle. But if you were kicked from the League, they will be returned to Catacombs. 

So why do you deliberately create anomalies like this which cause confusion and mistakes?

All units from beacons go to the catacombs, so why not fortress too?
