Clear dead and discharged associates Started by: Omerta_Enforcer on Oct 16, '10 05:02

Should have a way to clear dead and discharged associates.

Report Post Tip

Actually, i think the dead associates serve a purpose. If I saw a sponsor with 5 or 6 dead associates under them, I wouldn't ask that person to sponsor me. Sure its not always indicitive, but it sure as hell looks like they are a lousy sponsor who doesn't spend enough time with their associates coaching them, developing them, and making them feel involved.

Report Post Tip

I agree with you raven, well put. it shows how good are you as a sponsor.

Report Post Tip

But also if you have a discharge for some idiot that you have no control over it makes you look bad. You never know how an associate will turn out. Therefore i guess atleast dishonerable discharge should be moved.

Report Post Tip

I think that even a dishonorably discharged associate should stay on there- it means you either recruited an idiot or a cheater. Neither of which reflects well as a sponsor.

Still, I think there should be some limited way to wipe the slate clean. Perhaps each sponsor that you help successfully rise to the rank of Made Man gives you the option to remove one entree from your resume, so to speak, if you desire. That would reward the sponsors who put in the hard work to truly bring someone into the life.

Or we could be productive/boring and take the now more standard "pay a credit and make it happen" solution.

Report Post Tip

There is a way to wipe the slate clean. It happens when the associate who is dead is deleted from the database. So in other words, they're only there for like 30 days or so after getting killed or discharged. (Under certain circumstances)

Report Post Tip

Better question, why don't we badge successful sponsors with the names of associates who they helped get Made instead of having those efforts completely disappear?

Not good to only remember the bad, methinks.

Report Post Tip

TWENTYCHARACTERLIMIT has a vaild point, if we are going to keep the bad ones for a certain period of time, then the same should be done for the good ones

Report Post Tip

I just put in that after someome is dead for 30 days, they are removed from the sponsors profile.  We will try this out for a bit and see if there are any negative impacts from it.  If it doesn't impact the "keeping sponsors accountable" aspect of the game much, then we will leave it this way.

Report Post Tip

I have to agree with TCL, it would be good to see a record of Sponsors successes.

Report Post Tip
