Yes... 4 year old thread, so a lot of things have happened between the thread and
today.

7 days is ok to prevent people from joining fleets just for HA and then leave. If you wish
to make a new squad, you can always send a support ticket and ask for the penalty to
be lifted... sometimes it can be done.


- Lock for Necro, no PM sent.

alot has changed since this post was made.

Nice necro.
Wrong section.
7 day penalty is just fine, but people should be able to change squads within a fleet
and not have a penalty.

Of course you understand 7 days is too much, you see you have common sense like most
people, but come on, try telling that to TeamNF.

I wasn't gonna bring this up but might aswell now since a related topic is up.

My fleet tag wasn't being displayed for some reason, I tried everything to fix it, so as
one last thing to try, I asked the fleetmaster to kick me from fleet, rather then leaving,
to see if it evaded the 7 day ban.

It didn't.

I don't know if it will fix problem, still waiting till saturday.

So let's summarise.

My fleet tag wasn't working : Team NF's fault for crappy bugged game.

My waiting 7 days : TeamNF's stupid idea for crappy bugged game.

My having to add about 15 fleet buddies to my friends list and still have difficulty
talking to them because radioman is buggy anyway : Team NF's fault for crappy bugged game.

My making TeamNF rich: My stupid fault for giving them money.

OK, you get the point I'm not very happy.

Yes, 7 days is too much, but 3 days is too little.
7 days is en eternity if you're trying to create a squadron or switch between existing ones.
But an assault is declared 2 days in advance, the planning is usually done at least 24
hours prior to declaration. If a fleet started preparing 36 hours before a declaration,
they would have ample time to recruit people just for the HA.

5 days would probably be more than enough IMO.

obst idea actually sounds good

then people wont like like HSHS i left to make a new squad and i have to wait a
week zomg!11!11!!!1! and people still wouldnt be able to squad hop =D

Well on the plus side;
Wishy-washy flippancy is down by over 8% year-on-year.
Rates of "grudging acceptance of the status quo" have shown a corresponding rise.

In summary:

REJOICE!!

You have hope?

What have you been smoking?

Think that it would be better that way, fine. But don't expect anything.

Hope and expectations are the path to frustration.

I see we all agree that 2 or 3 days is enought, hope tnf and nfgm will ear and take
mesure about it.

You mean the 'Ideas Graveyard'?
