Alot of the inactive players clog up the player list, It makes me angry being on the 2nd page, when people who just made random accounts are on the list. But if after 1 month you get an email saying inactivity blah-blah. And if you dont respond or go back on within a month your account is deleted.

Because darn, having inactive stupid names on the user list makes me mad.

I second this. We have over a thousand usernames now, but the only active players can be listed on a page and half.

It still should go in Chronocological order, just it will look like: 23, 37, 92, 118

I have added a seven day filter. If a player has not been active within the last seven days they do not appear on the list.

I think the filter is good, but to be ohnst why does it make you mad that your not on page one? Just because someone isnt on the first page doesn't mean your less of a member.

And what should we do if you go on vacation for like a week or something?

Why does it matter where you are on the List? -_-

Its just a list of players registered. It dosent matter where you are. Its not a battle for where you are or nothing.

Inactive players take up un-needed space, simple as that..

But now I have to have player numbers memorized if I want to interact with them. Like if I wanted to mug someone, taking advantage of their not being on for a while. Or my little brother, he hasn't been on in a bit because school and band is taking too much of his time currently, but he will be playing again - and now I can't send him a present or anything because I don't remember his user number.

Can there maybe be a separate list of "active users" but in the regular list, all users show up? I don't like not being able to see everyone, whether they are active or not. Or maybe the amount of "inactive time" required for a name to disappear off the list could be upped to a month or something.

Or you could add him on your friends list ;)

Well now I can't do that since he's off the list, now can I?

I was also under the impression that only donors got friend lists. At least it's listed under the perks you have purchased when you donate.

Plus what about all the people that aren't my friends, so I don't want them on my friend list, but I want to be able to interact with them in-game. Not my problem they haven't logged in for a week, I should still be able to play the game and mug them if I wanna. Or send them a mail asking about such and so, for when they *do* log back in. Or whatever.

Your making a big deal about this.When they do log in interact with them, its the same thing

I'm just making my case. I think there is plenty of reason why inactive players - that are actually players, not people that signed up and then left forever - should be accessible. That's alll.
