Cities turning barbarian

[Seaking4]

Hi i'm on world 3 and one of our guild members is convinced that a city near one of his has just turned barbarian, but i have cities near mine that have been inactive for months but have not reverted. Does anyone know what the criteria are for inactive cities to turn?

Cheers

the player needs to leave the world

Hybrid is correct for one of the conditions. There are two ways a persons cities can turn into barbarian cities.

1. The player abandons the world.

2. The player is inactive for about 30 days or so.

Thats what we all thought but how is it that cities near mine that have not been active for months haven't turned bard by now? Does the player have to have upgraded to a certain release before this kicks in?

Cheers

I would imagine if the "inactive player" logs on 1 time a month he would still be "active".... In world 5 I'm not doing anything for months but I keep logging in and closing the game (mainly because the game forgets everything I do unless I log into another world before I close the game or get a phone call)

Yea, I have been having a few player cities turn into barbarians lately.
