I think the idea is good and even realistic.
(NOt that i decide whether it's good or not)
Just my opinon.
However Ogame is a strategy game where every manual decision have consequences.
Players have to think ahead and less skilled players get crashed by their own mistakes.
And i think v-mode is a big part of that. Think ahead, plan your fleetsaves, plan your account sitters,
plan everything in details, every move is a strategic move. Making going in v-mode easier takes this away piece by piece.
Actually it's already taken quite a lot away over the years. Looking from this point of view i'm not so sure i still like your idea that much.

Actually... Removing v altogether.. I could go for that.

no just no That might bring back a lot of accounts but at the same time you lose a LOT ACTIVE players.
So yeah you might have more targets, but these are all " ghost accounts"
You dont create a more active universe by pushing people to play.
For instance my account would be forced out of V-mode and crashed by now.
Sometimes i play on it, with your idea I can't. Sure it turns into a farm, but what's more important?
Some farms or players that are potentially active? With your idea you end up with 10 players at the end of the year that never had to use v-mode, and 2000 farms. Which btw after 28 days won't produce resources anymore... So you ruined out the actives and the farms are dead as well. If that's what you want, sure... But I don't think that was your goal.

Then the other v-mode idea of yours.

I got no1 to account sit for me, irregular schedules and sleep pattern. Losing sleep for a game full of vmode accounts!?!?

But isnt that the whole point of ogame? Make it occupy people's life and schedule. The whole idea after a crash is that you weren't around to save your fleet in the first place xDD

Both ideas will result in a passive raid universe for a small amount of people with less active crashers or players.
