I know that I am not the only Guild leader who has had to clear out inactive players to make room for active ones, but as it stands, there is not a good method that I have found to avoid accidentally kicking active or semi-active players, short of memorizing the account names and character names of all active players.

My proposal is to insert a “last logged in at…” feature in the Guild menu after each member’s name in the Roster. That would make clearing out inactive members a simple task, and would also help with finding who to promote and so on.

Although I am not sure how the code is set up for the Guild menu/Guild system, it should not be a terribly difficult change to make-it could fit in with an upcoming patch/update.

Thoughts?

So, essentially, the WoW based “X was last online at…” system. I suppose it would be a useful feature so managing a guild is just a touch easier. I’d also suggest a “Last Represented” timer, since I realize that some guilds have a problem tracking when their members have actually been actively participating in their guild, rather than using it as a parking space.

Hmm…what about a single timer that simply tracks the last time that both criteria were fulfilled-one which tracks the last time a member was online and Representing simultaneously. That would be very effective for discerning which people are active as opposed to not.

Well, yes, but you might as well split it into two timers to avoid confusion. It all depends on execution, I suppose.

So, this has been suggested before, and I will once again say that I’d support this idea.. however, one change I’d like to see made is instead of a last login time, a last represented time would be better which would account for login time as well(because if they’re not online, they’re not representing).

Slow down and smell the pixels.

Makes sense to me…I just wish there was a surer/more efficient way to make this a reality, rather than posting and hoping that a Dev not only sees it, but also puts it in motion. That being said, the Anet team is incredibly diligent in keeping up with the forums.
