When a team on TWL goes inactive, how long until it is automatically deleted, or is it? If not, what is the reasoning behind not deleting the inactive team after say 30 days or even 3 months. By inactive I mean, noone on roster and not competing in any league or ladder, and founder is no where to be found. If a team has players on roster and is in competition, but not in active matches, I can understand them not being deleted, as it is to their discrepancy wether or not they chose to move up on the ladder. But I dont see the point in keeping inactive teams, especially when they are registered under names that people may like to use. i.e. Team Synergy. I had asked to have my team named changed to this (Team Synergy) but was denied as there is already a team with this name. However, like I said, it has noone on roster and isnt competing in anything. So doesnt it stand to reason that the team should be deleted due to inactivity?

Edit: I think i bring up a pretty good point. What would ahve to be done to have an inactive team deleted, or to make a general rule of thumb, being: after 30 days, 60 days etc, any team in 0 competition with 0 members on roster will be deleted.

Thanks in advance for responce.

bump.
no reason to bump this thread after just a couple hours. It was Saturday night, and sorry, but staff has a life too


Ok, as for an answser. Teams are not auto deleted at all. If there is a team name you want, but it is taken, let me know what the team name is, and I will look into it.
I have seen Members/Teams come back after more than a year, and use the team name they had set up from "back in the day".

Ok, well the team name I wanted was Team Synergy, I had to use Team Synergy Gaming cause of the inactive Team Synergy. I tried contacting the founder via email but got no responce. @ Hanni, 1 year? Really? What would posess TWL to keep these inactive teams around after like 11 months. I mean, it should stand to reason that you want ACTIVE teams around here. I dunno, Team Synergy Gaming is fine, im just more or less trying to see if a rule could be made as not to promote inactivity. Letting teams with 0 members just idle seems pointless, but thsi isnt really my place to say, im just saying.
I am bound by TWL's guideline of "once you register it you own it until you ask for it to be deleted". Is the rule I have to go by in my position.

Jeniva of course is higher ranked.

I am willing to delete that team for a couple reasons. The founder has not been active in a very long time, and the team has no match history what so ever.


would you like me to rename your team and remove the "gaming"?
