Fleet demotion not working correct

cincyman39

Greetings,

My fleet had to demote a fellow fleet leader due to the fact he wasnt doing his part. He was on the countdown he had seven days left when he left the fleet early this morning he was able to rob the fleet bank on his way out. Now keep in mind we had our bank locked down only fleet admirls could withdraw we thought since he was in demotion he lost all powers?? If thats true then this is another bug cryptic needs to fix a.s.a.p If its not true then why have a count down cryptic??

Were not crying the blues becouse we got robbed were just concerned with this system not working like it should Also I will not list the member's name here on the forum but if you would like to know more you can email me in game @cincyman39

We want to warn everyone to watch out for this wether your a small,medium,large or mega fleet you could be hit next. Thanks for taking the time to read this.

Its Not A Glitch unfortunatly when you demote fleet leader he lose all his main powers within the fleet unfortunatly this does not include bank privlages as they are set manuelly and he would be able to withdraw to the limit you have set for the next rank down best thing to do if it happens again is close the bank down for 24 to 48 hrs to see what said person does then set better permisson limits also i will be in contact to get the name of said person so i can avoid sending them a fleet invite

Im sorry I failed to mention the bank was on lockdown no one could withdraw except the fleet leaders. I have submitted a ticket on this and to my surpize cryptic sent me a reply very fast there now investigating this further. We just want this fixed before another fleet has to go through this.

Its not a glitch. Any changes to demoted fleet leader status take place only when timer ends. In effect, the guy in question is a fleet leader with all rights and privileges until the timer runs out. If he chooses to take all the stuff he can carry and run for the hills, he still is able to do it.

If it worked the way you want it to work, hostile takeovers would be possible, since demoted leader could not do anything to stop the process (because essentially he would cease to be a fleet leader in the moment someone pushed "demote" button").

It works in the other direction too, there is a timer involved when a fleet leader is promoted - in this case, he gains full privileges after the timer runs out.
