In direct reply @SecondBestPolicy , it is mediocre but at least part of that is traffic which your idea at least partially corrects.
They don't give you a notice as such. You have to scroll down the list of players and take note of the number of black triangles which indicate players that are not active. Also if you look at their curve chart and tournament play you can really tell if they are snoozing.
It’s not the greatest because I think most forum users that see it are already in fellowships. The Game World section would work better if they direct more eyeballs to it, whether on their social media channels or in-game so more people would know it exists that aren’t the regulars. Your idea of linking players here from suggestions tab is actually a wonderful idea! They did make an in-game bugle announcement about it once and it got really hopping for a hot second, but then forgotten about again as time lapses. Maybe if they bugle it every few months, then it will be more in the front of people’s awareness that it exists.
If that happened we would need a website somewhere in the actual game for players to click on and get there. Kind of like the forum you can get to straight from in game. Otherwise, new players still would not know unless they google everything on game like us hardcore ones do.
Agreed!
This is also a great idea!!!!!
Good idea too!
I've used the forum recruitment device and, in about five years, I've picked up 1 player. If you look, the number of "fellowship wanting members" threads is probably about ten times that of the "players wanting fellowship" threads. In other words, it doesn't work very well because so many of the players never come to the forum.
Well if they're idling to inactivity, I'm thinking they're not finding it all that enjoyable figuring it out on their own either. It's not like if they joined an established FS, they need to go into a competitive FS. Most of the FS in the Top 50 are not competitive FS. You can find casual FS with knowledgeable AMs. There are plenty of AMs here with experience and know-how that go at their own pace.
Then you would agree their fellowship recommendations should be unlocked and opened up to all types of fellowships and not just with other newbies.Yep, all about having choice to do what we want to do.
Whoa, this is way over the top. A player can be visiting, trading, chatting, climbing Spire, and be mired deep in a guest race, working through tech. This can be especially true if they only log in once a day.
No. As I said, they also have to avoid finishing any encounters in any provinces and avoid upgrading wonders.
Sure. The one in a a few dozen people who are doing that. Every one of whom is probably in one of the top half of the chapters and almost certainly in a fellowship that knows it, bcuase in lower chapters you can't function without completing some province encounters. The OP specifically talked about fellowships which are more inactives than actives. if a fellowship has more than two or three people who are not showing any activity in Elvenstats, they are probably facing problems recruiting and clinging to dead cities. They are not the sort of groups the game should be suggesting people join. All it would take is calculating a single number in the suggestion list: Fellowship growth in the last 30 days, and if it isn't positive by at least one or two percent, don't tell new players they should join it.
