I would like to suggest an option for the person who initiates a siege to be able to select who joins the siege or at least be able to remove people from the siege.

Nothing is more frustrating than getting and hour away from a well balanced siege and the chance to gain some honour points and several of your clan members pile in and ruin it, or just piling in mobhanded right at the beginning.

But what if the siege starter has problems with the internet? He will have to fight alone.

And of course if someone who he doesn't like joins the siege then he'll remove him because he won't want him to get honour points.

I'm afraid this won't be implemented.

If we have a clan and a clan leader and we follow their lead why would it be such a problem to have selection for sieges.

Better relationships are difficult when we don't all speak the same language in the same clan, we rely on clan messages to set the rules of a siege. All I am suggesting is an option for siege instigator or clan leader / deputy the power to eject people from a siege, particularly if that person has unbalanced a siege.

What if?

Try giving it some serious thought instead of just slapping the idea down.

And...what was the third warning for???

That is unbelievably obtuse. If they can't join they can't join.


You know, I can't even be bothered to waste my time with a cretin like you.

I am sorry to do this Juntao; you have just posted 3 posts in a row, and that is multiposting. I see that you have already got 3 warnings, so goodbye.

what about a screen like in expeditions
where people join and then there are accepted into siege by either the starter or the clan leader ???
or when someone start siege they have a screen that they can disable certain people from joining ???
You gotta remember its just a game and people have lives outside of the underworld, some cant understand messages due to language barriers, others due to being drunk as a skunk :/ which is why we need some control, all we can do is reprimand people or kick them from clan.

We (BoS) had a problem with this in the past, but nowadays I can say that all our members know when to join a siege. No further control necessary.
Cool

lol this is all true if you want a good clan with no fuss with sieges join BoS we have it all under raps Smile

i think this because of the amount of comunication from within the clan... if u dont have comunication then it doesnt work

The whole system with gaining honor points by sieges is ridicules.

IF We assume, that clans are enemies to each others, why We need to pre-arrange/pre-set/ Our lineups before going to the battlefield?

In war, it won't happen, in sports, it's illegal.

If it's in the game in order to prevent big clans to crush smaller clans, Iam quite positive, that there are other ways to make attacking against smaller clans less atractive.

Actually, it ancient times, wars were organised well in advance of the conflict; with opposing generals often maintaining an almost perverse level communication to ensure that the battle remained equal until defeat (which was normally surrender).

Apologies for the history lesson - but I think the way the game is designed for clan wars means that a certain level of organisation is neccesary... of course that doesn't rule out some of the more inventive ways to swing a battle in your favour! Tongue

Secondly, in what sports is it illegal to name & decide on your team before you arrive at the game/match/event??? Confused

It can be annoying when people screw up a siege, but as Diablo says, communication & rule enforcement by a clan leader can soon nip that in the bud. If a clan leader can't discipline his/her clan members, then he/she doesn't deserve to be in charge of a clan... power denotes responsibility & all that. Wink

I still kind of like the idea of being abl eto remove unwanted players from a siege purely because of the language barrier that exists in many of the clans, but as Diablo said, with a bit of co-ordination, planning and leadership you can really cut this down to a minimum. Having an active BoS forum has really helped us stay on top of things and share information.

I would like to add another small suggestion in a similar vain which might help in PoH sieges - A simple running total of players points that have joined would dramatically simplify working out how strong each siege party is. The alternative is getting a pen and paper out and continually monitoring who is in and how many points they have. Its pretty tiresome but the only relaible way to predict an even fight. Why not make this part of the system?

Just a thought - Probably never gonna be implemeneted though! Big Grin

Now that is a stroke of genius! Well in. I second that as a good idea - Szeszej can we get a ruling on that one please - it's a good idea, and surely wouldn't be deperately hard to implement - you get a total on the expo page. Big Grin
