Been on officials for two years straight- the current system is fine- ive seen plenty of empires come and go and im still around.

On siptah i suspect the new chapter will correct it. Just like the last chapter corrected random disconnects.

Wiping the servers wont solve bad behaviour of players.

Just need to get the decay timer working again and they will go bye bye

I said it before and I’ll say it again.
Servers need to be wiped.
Sterilized.
Cleansed.

There is too much trash and pollution left over … even if it’s called “eye candy”.
The only thing those A-holes care about is disrupting the game for everyone else.

There is only one reason to wipe a server. That is if you lack a backup that will start. When a server database gets corrupted and won’t start, you incrementally test backups going back further and further in time till you get one that starts up (effectively a rollback).

When and only when you exhaust the list of backups, do you even consider a wipe. Nothing else.

The trash and pollution you speak of will immediately come back within 24-72 hours. I have played on around a dozen different servers and have restarted and been through just as many wipes. Any issue you THINK will be fixed by a wipe, comes back nearly within the first few hours.

For wipes to do as you suggest, you need to wipe every 2-3 days. Not weeks, not months. DAYS. As in wipe every 48 to 72 hours.

For anyone to continue to want wipes with the above information. Means one of two things. Blissful ignorance and not wanting to hear the truth. Or a spout of jealousy and envy to someone’s construction or location that they wish to kick the proverbial sandcastle of (whether the concern be justified or not, you are wanting to take action that will negatively affect thousands of innocent players for a simple personal vendetta).

I’d have to wait 2-4 weeks before they even action it.

If they ever do.
On the official siptah server I play on we have a clan that has had foundation and pillar spam all over for literally years and nobody can get any action from Funcom via reports no matter who reports it.

Me and some other friends reported them and we just get the “we’re too busy and hope it’s resolved itself” once a month.

See, the reason why I have suggested wipes isn’t to inconvenience people. It’s actually to improve the following:

• mitigating longstanding serial refreshers that take up meta building spots for the sake of it, the war is over, let it go!
• remove body vaults, everyone is on the same playing field
• remove longstanding undermeshes (oh yes, they’re still there)
• uproot alliances that have claimed every meta building spot and quash everyone who dares play on a server, plus their immense amount of storage and BVs

I suggested every 3 months and even then that might be too long. Keeps everything clean.

I used to be completely against wiping but I’ve seen too much monopoly by clans who think they own a server to accept that it is ok anymore.

And since Funcom can’t or won’t deal with you know, the many many issues, then wipe it.

But this is besides the spirit of this topic.

remove longstanding undermeshes (oh yes, they’re still there)

Existing and new undermeshing is just embarrassing at this point. There is no excuse in that this game has been out YEARs. There is not good reason for this to be still happening. No excuse. Period.
