Clean up whole game ?

Sandman's Powder does this to inactives, I buffed a long forgotten guildy and he went active.

We do have one indicator of when somebody actually did log in, the last login on a players members page. A quick check with my former guild leaders page shows that nothing done their his island changes that. My guess is that info is used by the guild succession mechanic.

If you mean the forum profile page, that time has nothing to do with the game. It shows when the player last visited the forum. There are players that don't even have a forum profile.

Hmm guess it must depend on how they log into the game then, if it's via the front page it gets recorded on their forum profile by the looks of it. Point is it's not a simple black and white answer to the question. Not only do we have Actives and In-actives but we also have players who inhabit a grey area in-between for example those whom's islands are kept awake or re-awoken by buffing, those who stay logged in 24/7. No doubt we would find other shades of grey if we looked.

Don't need to look very hard Doro, the login awards can glitch. On a couple of occasions, I have logged in, done about 30 mins maintenance on island and found the next day that login awards have been reset to Day1. Unless it's blatantly obvious that it has credited, I have now got into the habit of refreshing or logging back in until the popup proves that it has registered.
