The Brotherhood Activity Achievement

Can someone tell me since this The Brotherhood Activity Achievement was added to the game, is there a day limit when your inactive members haven't logged in that they are removed from your BH?  We had a couple that had been inactive, we had moved them to cadets, so it didn't take away from our percentage each day.  Then I noticed that they had been removed from our BH, and no one in the BH had permission to do this. So it had to be plarium that did it. I've never had this happen before and want to know if this is a new rule. Usually these members would come back, they may be out for work related things or life as it may be, but usually they would come back in and play. But since they have been removed, they will have to start over with their membership to come back to our BH.  I would like to know the rules pertaining to this.

There is only automatic disbanding of whole BHs, not kicking of single players. I asked a friend in a BH with such players, and he checked (just now) and he says that their longest inactive has been away for 57 days. So no, there is no automatic kicking.

We do occasionally get the question just like yours and - so far - it always turned out to be a case of some player kicking these (by mistake or malice, I don't know).

Well it happened to us, we had 4 kicked out. 1 had been out for quite some time but the other 3 weren't near as long. There are only 2 of us who can keelhawl and we didn't do it, so it had to be plarium.

arrr ye sure it is only ye two that have the permissions?


As Crowbar said.  Plarium will disband a whole BH before booting ye inactives on you.  I've seen well over 100 days without the boot.

Along with the leader, all advisers can kick other players. Assuming that you're the leader, do you have only one adviser?

Yes there are only 2 of us that can keelhaul someone, and today another one was booted. SO I want to know how it is that they can just boot members of a BH just because they have been inactive for a period of time. This needs to be investigated. I want to know the terms of this Brotherhood Activity Achievement. I am very upset about this. This should not be allowed to happen. The only people in a BH that should have access to keelhauling should be the leader and advisers. and I can say that no one in my BH has done this. This is coming from the internal side, programming.That's why I want to know certain aspects programmed in the game, since this piece was added to the game.  We discussed it last night, no one even knew the members were booted. Now another one today. So I need someone to find out from the developers how this happens, when was this put into play? What are the new rules to this BH activity achievement? and why wasn't everyone told about this? How is it that they can just boot our members without our knowledge? It's just been recent that the game boots members for inactivity. I mean there are circumstances surrounding inactivity. Death in the family, illness, family hospitalized, work related situations, all kinds of things. and only the leadership of the BH knows these circumstances. That's why I need to know how can the game keelhaul members from our BH? Please someone find this out, as it not only applies to our BH, it is probably happening to all BH's. This isn't right.

Given that it seems to be happening only in your BH at the moment, I still think it's not Plarium's doing, but I'll ask the Support to look into it.

In the mean time, parrot your ex-players, explain to them that you want them back, and ask them about Envoy's reports about being kicked. If the Support doesn't tell you who kicked them (not sure they can), then these reports might shed some light on it.

Addendum: they'll need the platform (Plarium/FB), the name of the map (The Pirate Bay/The Golden Coast/The Sirens' Strait), the coordinates of the BH's leader and the coordinates of at least one of the kicked players.

If you feel uncomfortable posting these publicly, send them to me by a direct message.

I think that he thinks that only the Leader and Advisors can boot cadets. In Main, Pirate Bay, I believe it is Scouts and above can boot cadets. Each Pl server varies as do the FB servers.

Azhaar Laghari is on to something. 

I asked further, and I learned this:


  1. There are no special rules as to who can kick Cadets; however,
  2. There is a special rule regarding inactive players: any player in the top 4 ranks can kick inactives of a lower level than that player.

In other words, any player of the top 4 ranks could've kicked your inactive Cadets.


I also asked how are "inactive players" defined. It's those who haven't logged in for 2 weeks or longer.

I would also like to express my personal disagreement with how this works, which I also voiced to the Support agents (IMO, the rule should be ditched or there should be some logging of who kicked the players), but my complaints are very unlikely to change anything.

My reply probably won't make you happy, but I hope it at least explains what has happened and will help you reorganise for the future.
