    I know this has been mentioned before
    But we need some way to check our guild members activity

    Previously, if they hadnt battled for 30 days there win rate turned to 0% (that is still a long time to have an inactive player)
    I used to take pen and paper, write down the number of battles of each guild member then check in a week later.
    Some people just make everyone respond in guild chat, but i find that may lead to mistakes.

    But it would be a lot easier to have some features extended to the leader of the guild, like checking player activity. It would also be great to have guild wars :p as all my guild mates say (idk, you guys got any ideas? I havent played very many games in the past, but guilds in this game seem very lacking)

    Also, and this may be a long way down the road, if we could form alliances with other guilds
    Idk, i feel like a guild needs more of a purpose then just for sharing advice and fleets. EVENTS *cough cough* EVENTS ;)
    And so many are inactive, the only reason people join guilds is to get the pearls. Or leaders dont care about keeping up with activity, trust me it will start to decline fast.

    I'm just monitoring the infamy and captain levels of my guildies. If both of those don't change day after day, they're inactive.

    I'm taking a photo of every players profile every week. If they did 0 battles, then it's pretty obvious that they're inactive.

    Rovio I have to use this stupid method because you didn't give us a function to see how active people are.

    Battles would probably be more helpful because, although its unlikely, you can win/lose an equal amount to be the same infamy...
    Also leveling captains can take a week or more lvl 20+

    Dont mean to shoot down your methods though haha, everyone has different ways of going about it
    just a lot more convenient to have a function that shows when a player was last active...

    The devs are usually quite.But from the past couple weeks they are a little TOO quite.I think they are planning a big update and I hope that this issue is looked into it.Will be easier to manage a guild.

    This game is still only a couple months since global, so my guess is that they are really working.

    yeah but nobody wins and loses equal amounts every day for a week without getting any draws in between

    That's hilarious! I was just about to start a topic on this exact topic! FFS devs, bring back the 30 day activity bar. It was the only un retarded way to gauge the activity of the members in your guild, and save yourself wasted time sending invites to abandonned accounts.

    Technically you can see if your guild members are online if you add them all into friends a monitor their infamy but this is very time ineffective because you have to remember their infamy and check profiles to see if there online every day or what ever you requirements are on activity

    Dude I play this game in my spare time for fun. That's all just more work. I'm not trying to make this a second job after i get home from work. 30 day win ratio was a feature that we had before and it should be re instated.

    I am using the forum to gauge activity. That was one of my motives to start Forum Members Attack!.

    No. They have to be a member. And active at least once a week.
