In the last couple of weeks, I have noticed that in at least 3 of my FS, there are members that are active in their cities, but they are not making neighborly visits to their FS friends or taking/posting trades.
It started when I had a new member join us in Felyndral. After visiting him daily for several days, I noticed that he was not returning my visits. I messaged him, offering assistance, as he was a very new player. A week later, no response. So I sent a second message stating that despite the relaxed atmosphere of our FS, the visits & trading were required whenever logging in to our cities. I received a message back stating that he would work on it. One member that I have checked with says that he received one visit from him last week. I have now sent him a 3rd & final warning that he will be released on Nov. 1st if he is not going to participate.
I am a very laid-back player, even when I am the AM. I don't ask a lot. This really irks me though, when it appears that members are taking advantage of the FS.
This incident has caused me to examine my other FS more closely & I have discovered that it appears as if the same thing is happening in both of them--by at least 1 player. I doubt that it is part of the CL protest, because only one of them is advanced enough to even have the CL.
It's making me question whether they have even been helping all along......I know one of them does a couple of provinces in the tournaments occasionally, but no visits or trades. It is upsetting because in one FS, we are really hurting for scrolls and can't afford to have anyone using the FS for their own gain without reciprocating the help they receive.
I have already addressed this issue with my Mages & Ambassadors in one FS, so that we can get a consensus about possible removal of the offending parties. In the other two FS that I am responsible for, I have already messaged the offenders & given them until Nov.1 to amend their ways.
Has anyone else had this problem?? I'm starting to think it might be a chronic issue.
