After 14 days res stop

gameplayer wrote: what i am mainly referring to is that the babysit rule allows a person to actually control 6 accounts, that these six accounts can be spread in several different alliances, that a group of people can have amazing strength and it all legal, reread the babysit rule, it says the rule allows the sitter to have full control of the account but for the prestige, it says nothing about whether the account player is still playing or not, it also allows three people to do the building of the account and even more if the account holder changes who is given baby sitting right, im sorry but getting hit nonstop from several accounts if u are not playing like this doesnt sound fair, or think about the number of dip missions hitting from six accounts and its really just one person but right now its all legal no rules are being broken, its something to think about and i invite responses, it might take away more fairness from the game than it currently adds, think upon this 2 people sending from 120 level 10 castles....ouch

The most that I can sit on my account is 2. So if I use an alt the most accounts I can sit is 4 accounts. If anyone is sitting more then 4 accounts then they have more then 2 accounts which is against the rules.

No need to answer these points. Vacation mode is far more honest and preferrable to long term/perma sit. It leaves the game less open to abuse or exploitation...period!

Vacation mode has another disadvantage. What happens to their cities? If they go on  vacation more for forever will they be forever occupying those spots without a chance to reclaim them and put them to better use. This makes things worse in my opinion. Now we have people keeping dead accounts going. But we can still attack them. Vacation mode just makes dead accounts that can't be done anything with.

All that needs be done to stop most abuse is to limit the sitting time until the account owner logs in.   When the true account owner  logs in, the count re-starts.   For example, the account could be "sat" for up to 4 weeks without the owner logging in.  At 4 weeks, the sitters can no longer log in, until the owner logs in, at which point the sitting can start again for another 4 weeks.  This would meet most active player needs, and ensure that accounts that are abandoned by their owner will eventually become unplayable.   We can debate if it should be 2, 3, 4 or 10 sitting weeks, but I think the concept is worth considering.   If you want to control the sitting more, the game could actively remove sitter-appointments after the allotted time of inactivity by the account owner, requiring the account owner to become active enough when he/she logs on to appoint sitters.   I  like this option better than re-activating sitting ability or previously appointed sitters.

As long as its over/around 4 weeks* I don't see a problem with it. Most people can find a library or ask a friend/family member to log in to keep it activated if something comes up. I like the idea of sitter accounts needing the user to log in after 4 weeks to keep the sitter accounts active.

i think the whole rule needs to be rewritten, it seems crazy that anyone can control several major accounts,.....6 of them......., at any given time, it puts other people at a disadvantage that are not babysitting others and dont have access to  major build out accounts, it allows possible unbalance in the game allowing a few to control the game.....after reading it over again it does not look like it was written for people that have to be away from the game for a time period but to allow several people to play the same account......why fight it but guess incorporate it in game style? currently it is legal to play 2 accounts and legal to play 4 babysit accounts at the same time, to do this u need to have access to several web browsers, simple to do with pc, tablets and iphone.....again ouch! please add your thoughts
