Hi everyone! Quick suggestion here.

I’m proposing that after the administration team has decided to permanently ban a user, after a time period of say, 3-6 months, the entire contents of that account will be wiped.

Not given to the community, Not Given to the Tree, Not Auctioned or Raffled off- WIPED

My reasoning for this is simply server space and economics.
If theoretically, an account is banned that has 300+ Buffalo scrotums (which is reasonable in some cases), those 300+ Buffalo scrotums will show up in the “# of items in game” and can effect the price of the item overall.

For Buffalo scrotums there’s always a surplus, but for items that are incredibly rare, such as Solaris and Interstellar applicators, every single item in game plays into the worth of the item. If items are on a permanently banned account, those items are never going to play a part in the economy again, and should be removed.

This also constitutes server space; the game should not have to hold onto thousands of lions and hundreds of thousands of items on accounts where the players won’t be returning.

TLDR; Wipe permabanned accounts after a period of time so the rest of the site can have more server space and remove dead items, currency, and lions from the economy



This suggestion has 540 supports and 22 NO supports.

Still, no support, always a chance for admins to reconsider, and I think lions belonging to a banned account should become like wild dragons in a certain bragon game.

Support. I'm sad to see pretty lions stuck on a banned account but ain't nothing I can do about it, and it's a net positive to wipe them. If they've been banned for such an extended period of time, they're not coming back. I think 6 months is good.

" That would only cause an influx of lions that can be easily recreated by putting a request for raffle lioness marks/base etc. in respective thread and doing a breeding project. Quite a few of my friends are actually doing that. "

The thing is, the stud would cost the EXACT same as what the banned user put in the stud cost.

Studding staying open and being auto-accepted is the exact opposite of the sentiment of this suggestion imo, and not at all something I would be in favour of being added. I feel strongly that it's completely inappropriate for things that belonged to banned players to continue being used in any capacity. That sort of thing has been suggested before over many years and has been shot down repeatedly for the obvious reasons. I'm sure it's possible to find threads like that if you searched with appropriate keywords, to see all the comments explaining problems it would cause. This suggestion thread is proposing essentially the opposite of that.

No support, bans can be reconsidered at any time. We should not be touching the items, lions, or studs of people who (however unlikely) still have the potential to come back.

YES please! Even if it is just the accounts who are banned for good, rather than the accounts who are banned for a certain time.

Then, I fully NO SUPPORT this suggestion.

the suggestion is to remove people who wont even be able to get on the game anyways. Might as well, otherwise the accounts are ther for absolutely nothing.

Horizon also voiced my concerns regarding this suggestion,.A snippet of their post is shown here:

" bans can be reconsidered at any time. We should not be touching the items, lions, or studs of people who (however unlikely) still have the potential to come back. "
- Horizon [Hard Mode] (#154676)

Deleting assets od people who are banned, I believe, is still touching assets of the banned.

There are people who have been banned for years and some of their stuff shows up. And after being rejected once, it is almost impossible to do it again.

However, that is a point i could see. But personally if an account has been banned for years then they arent going to try and come back. at that point they need to be ridded of

- Corruptedhyena (#243378)

As you said almost impossible, there is still a chance to be unbanned from the game, theres still a very low chance, so I'd personally keep the assets and such untouched, better **safe** than **sorry**, I say.

If someone is banned and tries to get it back and is rejected, that means they did something really bad. So I still beleive those accounts should go. There are some things you can NOT get your account back from doing.

There are always accounts who will be forever banned and wont be able to get them back. I personally beelive if they cant get it back once, the account should go. Lioden is VERY good at making sure the ban is reasonable and gives plenty of chances to people.

I've seen a couple people get banned for silly things and then immediately reinstated once appealed. I saw another get banned for... a few months? Maybe 2 or 3? But she got her account back too.

I think 6+ months is enough time to appeal.

That's possible -- then there's the ones who got reinstated after 6+ months.
