Is it possible to obtain inactive land?

Postby Salad_in » Thu Oct 10, 2013 7:47 pm

There's a player that used to live nearby me that I believe has been inactive on the server for quite some time.
I was wondering; Is it possible to obtain the claim of a player who's been inactive from the server for quite some time?
I mean in terms of a year or two, Not entirely sure how long this player in question has been inactive for. but it sure has been more than 5 months. At least if feels like it.
Any and all information will be helpful

p.s
This post is mainly my scavenger mentality speaking.
I am treating this as information gathering.
I am willing to wait the appropriate amount of time before this land becomes free if any rules apply.

It mostly depends on if we, as Guardians, feel the player might come back. For small builds where the player had only spent their first day on the server building it (or their first week, perhaps) and then left left, never to return, we would likely just rollback all their actions to free up the land for others to use. I periodically do this when I come across a noobish looking houses, typically if it has been multiple months I will just roll it back. If it has been a few weeks, I might if it is in someone's way or left half finished.

For larger builds, where the player had obviously spent some time on the server and then may have come up against other life things which may be keeping them away, I prefer to leave them in case they one day return. I feel I have a good feel for who may return, and who may not; though I do lean to the more cautious side.

IF you'd like us to have a look at a build, just enter "/helpme I'd like to remove this noob build, please" and a Guardian shall inspect it. As a rule, we do not hand over the builds or stored items of banned or inactive players, we just undo every action they had taken on the server (so the resources they gathered are returned to the world for others to find).
