There are so many legions with few to 1 people in them its hard for people to find decent legions. Please eliminate all of these 1 man legions if they have been 1 man for over a set time period like a week because its really a pain to scroll through 100 pages before you find an active legion with more than 1 person in it.

This is a problem, but perhaps there are better ways to solve it, like sorting by the amount of people, average rank, or average strength, instead of just most recently created, or having some sort of minimum requirements for making a Legion.

1 week to gain 10 members, otherwise the legion disbands.

that sounds extreame but i think disbanding of legions 100% inactive after 4 weeks would work.

what is currently done to long term inactive players who are not in legions?

I don't think many of these Legions have 100% inactivity, so that wouldn't really change much, there are just too many 1 person Legions to sift through.

And as near as I can tell nothing is done about long term inactive players.

if the player is under rank 10 it is likely they will quit

I agree, something needs to be done. The current system of finding a legion is a cluster.

thanks for the support they need to at least put a sorter in so u can view legions by stats such as highest/lowest average rank and stuff like that. Also the 1 man legions need to be taken out there needs to be some time limit to how long a 1 man legion can remain before it gets autodisbanded. It'll also free up legion names if they and create more stronger legions if they clear out the inactive 1-3 person legions

maybe Dan should allow creating a legion, only when more than 5~10 people have signed up for founding that legion.

Yeah, they could also make some sort of minimum requirements for starting a Legion, such as a minimum level.

Ah, I didn't realize. That should change to at least 20 I think, that seems to be the level after which more people stay.

make it 50. this way the lower levels will be forced to join a legion. once ur level 50 you pretty much know how the games played and can afford to help the newer players. but a level 20 is still colonizing sparse tiny planets because they 'look cool'.

This. In most MMO's there's usually a certian minimum of people required to sign the charter before the legion can be formed.

I agree something has to be done about these "1 person legions", I quote it because I think anything under ten is too few. I had put out an idea earlier about having a way to sort the legion pages so you could find the better legions without having to go through hundreds of pages of tiny mostly inactive legions. The best way I could see is by having it limited to you have to be above level say 50 to form a legion and once a legion is formed it has two weeks to get above 10 members or it is disbanded. But the amount of these tiny legions are way out of hand and not doing anything to better the game.

Having 1 man legions isn't a problem, not having a decent filter is. All it would take is adding a window to the search feature that lets you put in value sets. Say Legion Level XX - XX, and amount of pilots XX - XX.
