Inactivity Checks / Noob Clearout
At the moment, if you go through the maps on servers, the maps are filled with inactive players. I've been playing Haypi Kingdom for quite a while now & noticed that many new members log on once & quit. I would like to suggest a inactivity check, where the low level players from levels 0-4 get deleted if they haven't been on for a month or ever purchased coins before. This would make more room on all the servers & also make room for new players in these servers.
Another useful feature that could come out along with this would be a holiday mode. A holiday mode in which the player's main city gets flagged with a different colour flag to indicate they are gone for a holiday. If you want you could also keep the "going on a holiday" part a secret. This would be extremely useful so Haypi knows your still going to play after you come back from your holiday. I'm not suggesting a holiday mode where you can just click holiday mode & become unable to be attacked because I think that would somewhat ruin Haypi Kingdom & would be easily abused.
It would be great & benefit everyone, seriously who doesn't wnt the inactive noobs cleared off the map, incluidng it would also clear up the inactive players of the game. It's kind of annoying going through the map & seeing inactive noobs covering up the whole area.
It would also be nice if you would let new members into the servers after the cleanout.
It would also be great if you guys added onto this yourself because you may not like it. Let me know why or why not you like this idea, don't just write "I hate it" or "Great Idea" because IMO that is considered spam.

Haypi requires a email address to create a account right? If a player has gone inactive for a month a email could always be sent out saying it's been a month since you last logged in and if you don't log in in the next 30 days your account will be deleted! It would be great to have a full server of active players with new players not just referals joining in! Saw someing about farming the lvl0 - 4s to little resources for the time that's required to even attack and take them! Personally I've not only seen a bunch of lvl0-4s but it's more lvl0-7. I know mid lvl players are starting to quit now because of how few targets there are. It's getting harder and harder to lvl as the months go on! Without with new players to help keep the server alive. These older servers will eventually just go completely inactive! Plus it'll be nice to have some new people in world chat. Majority of the new players would beable to get help from a high level player with or without the expert tag attached to the name or not.

If you don't get on for over a month it takes your cities off the map and stores them all on a server, if you still don't get on for a year, then your account is deleted. If you do get back on in a year, it puts your cities back in there original spot, or bear it if it is taken.
If you honestly can't get on for a year & you still want to play... That sucks don't it? If the game is that important to a player, then that player oughta be able to find a way to sign on within a year.
There would of course have to still be a holiday button so that you don't lose your spots, possibly the holiday button could store your cities on the server with everyone elses who doesn't play for a month, but it leaves a flag at your spot that means, no one can take it for X amount of time. Possibly 1 coin for 2 months, therefore the players who really love this game could keep there spot & account for a year for less than $1.
(don't complain about the months costing coins, if you truly want to play this game you can spare 99 cents)
Plus, servers cost $$, if they didn't charge coins, people could leave their account on for years!
Sorry if I have terrible spelling, I'm writing from my iPod & can't see what I'm typing

One way to solve the problem is to create a ghost server where all inactives r placed for upto a year n gets deleted after the time. If a player comes back n wants to rejoin his original server, he should b allowed to do so at no cost but charge him second time around.
