How to determine if you're fac members are active during WD.

[Dan Cai]

Hello gree, In WD points determine if someone is active or not. However I really think that you should include next to wins/losses is wall hits/cc hits. As an active player trying to determine if the other faction members are pulling there weight is quite difficult. I'll put up a vote to see I people think this is viable. Any constructive criticism is welcome thanks.

We have several free players on our team who are very active. They can score 40k points. We have some players on our team that hit walls and power attack defensive leaders, but we know who they are. We have a minimum number of points, but it is more about communication during war. If people aren't communicating, then they aren't as active as WE want them to be. I hope this helps

Knowing who is online would help.

[Hellish]

It would help to see the fore mentioned and/or for officers or the leader to see the number of logins during the WD events.

PM me for participation pointers..

Personally ive always figured out a way to determine activity:

You cant account for those that do intel, Help to determine Delcaration times, Rally the troops etc.
Not saying that is the perfect solution but we used to have to track donations before gree did it for us.

Personally we need an inventory sorter before this in my opinion but it would be cool to see.

[S.P.W.D]

Knowing who is online would help.

This would be a great help to find the lurkers who score but don't want to hit the wall etc

It would be nice to know who is really hitting walls and who is just reporting that they did

We already have a Ranking TAB. After a few months it becomes a little superfluous. We already know who is doing what by then.

HOWEVER, if that TAB was designed to show things more current then it would be of great assistance.

The example is this: During war it adds up all the WD and stores it for a very short period after the war has finished. Its then wiped and starts again next war.

It could also be used for other faction events in exactly the same way.

Or give the leader the option to wipe it clean after an event.

It doesn't matter which way you do it, just make it more current. Historical stuff is ancient almost irrelevant history that has little meaning in the longer term.

People used to be concerned about leaving a faction temporarily because they would lose their game $ donations record. That's not the case anymore; so historical records have become far less important than current records.

Use Dockbot it tracks participation

We use an external chat app to communicate as many other factions do. Within our chosen app is a notice board feature that we use to annotate DL hits etc. We set a points target at the start of each campaign. For some of the smaller guys we award a nominal points total for DL hits etc. We track activity in a number of ways to try and ensure a fair use of resources and to ensure that all members do their bit. We try to keep in mind its just a game and sometimes real life issues get in the way, but we have only had to boot 6 guys for inactivity across the last 3 campaigns.

Well I can tell if I was active I got promoted

Easy fix - count a Wall hit and a CC hit in the Win Column - costs the same amount of gold to bang a wall - why not give the same credit in the Wins column :)

[Mr.Grumpy]

...if your faction members...

[lemonhaze]

Easy fix - count a Wall hit and a CC hit in the Win Column - costs the same amount of gold to bang a wall - why not give the same credit in the Wins column :) seems like a easy fix but as things are here nothing is easy in the code written here

That would also count towards getting prizes for units and gree would see less cash. That ain't gonna happen. I bet we see the final goal 2000 kills next war though since It's now apparent that SUP is stopping when all members reach that goal. When I PA and hit wall, I always report back in chat such as Wall x12 It's not mandatory, but I'm the lowest level guy that rarely gets a target so I want the crew to know I'm doing as much as I can to help the cause.

While we are on the subject, I think we should all make an agreement to not use walls as it's just a waste of real money. All the top teams are using level 15s anyways so we might as well just subtract those 20 some hits and let them count towards kills and points.

[Farticus]

I agree that it would be a helpful tool to be able to track any type of attack that is made...even the losses from an attack (as when scouting).

[Mr. Artois]

I like the idea but don't see it as a priority. Let's get the basics rights first.

[Dan Cai]

I agree there is more important things, however this was on my mind and thought it best to air. Good to see some real discussion and not the usual trolling.

[alphacharlie]

you should include next to wins/losses is wall hits/cc hits.
Yes, I would love to see wall/cc hits too, also number of wars (scored/logged in) if possible.

That would also count towards getting prizes for units and gree would see less cash.It cost the same cash to refill 4 hits for the wall as it does to refill 4 hits on a player :)

[GeoffW]

My preference would be a seperate column for wall/cc hits.

In the absence of anything else, any faction worrying about tracking activity at this level is likely to have got to the stage where they realise you need to coordinate WD activity using a chat app. Those that don't appear on chat aren't active or aren't pulling with the team. Simple
