This happens far too often! New players join the site and join many leagues. After a few weeks of "fun" they disappear leaving hundreds of active games behind with many of those as league games. The most recent one is spiller, he has many automoves in league games already.

Can we kill them off? Treat it like a crash due to fire damage and give no extra point to the opponent(s). I think it is safe to kill them off if they automove 5 times in a game.


I cant get my head around killing them off...

How about, after each auto-move, that player auto-moves one day sooner, until they are auto-moving every day. OR, for the less merciful, you get auto-moved everyday after your first auto-move.


That type of automove system will be harder to put in place. Just kill them off. Do you think they really care if they have not login for a week in a 3 day timeout league?? If you know you will be unavailable, don't join!

I think it will be easier and quicker for the webmasters to implement if we set simple limits. If we say they must finish 50+ games, membership more than 100 days old, 30+ wins, maximum active game limits of 150, etc.; they can implement it fairly quickly thru database queries. Now if we want to have extra comboboxes like someone was suggesting earlier in this thread, it will take them longer to implement.
