Why can't all the people that haven't played since they started the game and have a population of 0 or close to that be taken off the map so that they aren't in the way. i really don't see any point in having these people on the map, so why not get rid of them?

they provide resources that you can harvest with your armies.  deleting some of them would be a good idea, though.  /me readies siege army.

Aparrently they have 5 weeks before being put on a Pending Deletion List.
They've been inactive since July or longer.
They are getting in the way of my super highway (I hope)
There time is up! Please remove!

I am not amused.

If not, at least players can remove those themselves.

there's also the problem of people who don't play in your alliance, especially when they are highly ranked. if you kick them out then you alliance loses rank, but if you leave them in they have no real purpose

Not true, you still collect taxes from them and you can farm them with diplomats.

Ah yes the alliance tax rate and the diplomats. As far as the tax goes unless their personal tax rate is high the alliance doesn't get much gold from them and gold isn't really something that is the most needed resource especially foe me. As for the diplomats i agree

and, with messengers becoming more versatile, they can act as stepping stones to attack your enemy.

If you destroy their city it just goes somewhere elseAngry and can still get in the way. Eliminating them would free up map space.Smile

Maybe there could be a built in check.  If a user only has a single city AND that city has been relocated AND it has had zero population for x number of months, it just disappears.
