We need a feature of when people go on vacation and can't play.
One consideration could be to have a "double". A player that they trust that can log into their account without knowing their password.
That player can manage their trade, cast voodoo on himself and do most things. But he cannot attack other players or send gold to other players.

I like the idea of a limited account that a friend can use to manage your fleet from
or an automation, that just run things based on your settings,
that is only available x times a year for x number of days.
it casts protection and counter voodoo up to x number of cards
repairs ships, and reactivates fleets after skirmish.
and keeps your trade routes open.
sort of like the trade route program but with a few more options.

I also thought an emergency marina feature might be useful.
just a protected place to park everything in an emergency. It would be instant dock all your ships and freeze your accounts.
It would be and all or nothing, and you wouldn't have any revenue or other access. if you had a lot of interest building it might not be good.
but everything could be 100% safe for a limited amount of time.
This would be useful if
Say maybe if your city got hit by a hurricane in real life, and you only had a few minutes to close up before
you lost power for a week.

I like the idea- but -1. This takes away some of the danger of not monitoring your profile daily/every few days... -10 to what William said about reactivating trade routes and what-not. 7 days and your trade route is cancelled automatically.

Think he was looking for a provision to protect yourself when its not possible to login and monitor.
That is why I suggested it be limited use. like maybe 1x a year for 14 days. or something to that effect.
if you could do it anytime you would not have to log in and that would be silly.

Eh, I can see this being abused quite a bit. Allowing a friend who is a spy from another guild in, he sells all your ships and sends gold to himself. You should be monitoring your account, the suggestion is just odd. -1

3rd time this is brought up. The answer is still the same and it is something more than a simple yes or no:
