Yes that's totally logical to do but what is going to happen to groups that already got more than 90 members for the meantime?  :thonk:
Actually current groups with more than 90 members (my group is one of them) have a minimum of 50-60 inactive players that haven't logged in for over a year so you can easily get rid of them and re-invite them back when they are active again.



But, since a lot of players here are against the idea,

How about we make it so when a player decides to create a group he will have a maximum of 90 player slots and not 150 (if this is possible of course)? so older groups wouldn't have to kick over 50 or 60 of their members.

About your idea, then what is the purpose of implementing this suggestion (Brian's)?

Brian's purpose of this suggestion is to lower the requirements for new groups in both forum and game to make some new groups appear.

Lowering max amount of slots will increase possibility for new groups to emerge, boards could have lower requirements and group features could cost less. More groups would make the server more lively.

Therefore, I suggested something (just an opinion btw) that could do the job rather than having to kick a lot of members from certain groups as most of the players said above. Although new groups will have the ability to only afford a maximum of 90 player slots but the same requirements will apply for both old (with 150 member slots)/new groups (with 90).

Now the server donesn't have many players, and the most of them are already in groups, so we need new rules for groups.

Reducing the max slots of groups is a very good idea.

BUT many of groups have more than 90 members so how can they kick the members to reach to the requirement number of slots ?

What about the groups that have the 150 members already? They would need to kick them or the system will do it by itself? What about the bought slots?

If this thing, will make groups more active, I'm positive.

Imo, it is pretty difficult to just get rid of the old members that basically worked for years to make your group succeed. Any old group leader/founder will understand me. I doubt that kicking old honourable members will help the other groups reach a higher amount of members. We kick members almost daily for being inactive but we might reach a point where we won't have a choice besides kicking the old homies. I cannot support this suggestion.

When a group member has been inactive for months, it's pretty clear they're gone and won't play. You can be grateful even if they're not in group.

The server's playercount is kinda low right now, and surely nobody can start or keep his FULL 150 members active, it'd be a good idea to reduce it to 90 since buying more slots = more inactive members.
