With regard to the percentage of players who purchase prestige, Stormcrow once said they have about a 60% conversion rate for players who play more than one week.  He said that in November 2011, and things in Illyriad have changed a lot since then, but it is possible that more people buy prestige than you think.

Prolly been mentioned, but if you plan to donate your account to a sitter... give the prestige to the alliance, therefore no wasted coins in the game.
Sitting is for the multi-tasker. If I'm asked to sit, two weeks is my limit and I'm not good @ remembering I'm sitting,  I'd rather play my own castles. 2 cents with change available..

returning again to the OP, i think further limiting the rights of sat accounts is probably *not* a good idea. i would like to see two changes to sat accounts to limit them:
1) logins from sitters do not reset the purge count, so that the owning player must still log in every 30-90 days to keep the account active.
2) that chat and igm from the sat account be identified as having been entered/sent by a sitter (a sigil after the account name, perhaps).

The Duke is absolutely right, the devs will not implement any of these suggestions, but if those of us on the forum were fussed about something like that these pages would be quiet indeed.  :P

The fact you two are posting here, proves otherwise.  If you honestly believed it was dead you would not log in. 

Personally I think the game is going strong.  Lots of players, lots of action, also plenty of options of things to do.
<Deranzin> I'd agree with darkone on that

To all those who sit.----Power to the people . Sit and be king . There's no way a person who does not sit can stand up to you . You will over run them by shear numbers . And you shall control the game .Thanks for letting us little people hang around and play. Just think about that a bunch of sitters get together and turn to the dark side and go on the war path game over for a lot people they could put the hurt on a bunch of players. We have all played games already were they have done just that . So again from all the little people thank you to all the sitters for letting us play.
