I submitted a suggestion last week to archive inactive accounts, and remove the city from the map so that active players are not crowded out by inactives. After we merged, I count a total of 16 inactive cities within 5 miles or less of my cities. That is ALOT and I can only imagine how much worse it will be at some point down the road when our newly created SS merges with 2 others who also dragged along the inactives from their respective servers.
So.....archive the account exactly as it is, any cents, items, etc are archived. When or if the player ever logs on, drop their city randomly the same way it is dropped during a merge. Give the player a "welcome back package" containing an adv port, hero hunting, speech text, resources, and production buffs to help them get started again, and call it good.
It would be win-win-win. The account is preserved, so Evony doesn't break its promise not to delete accounts. If the player DOES ever return (highly doubtful) they will receive sufficient items to start playing again. Meanwhile, active players are not hindered by the rotting carcasses of the long since departed choking up the map.
