    Name: @Thorpian

    Problem: about a week ago I did /seen on KingWikiWiki, and it said he had been seen 1 day before. Recently tried the same thing and it said "Player not found."

    Recreated: nope. As in it still says player not found, but I haven't tried this with anyone else.

    Possible issue: perhaps user got a name change but has not logged into ECC with new name? Therefore ECC says he doesn't exist (which would be important for town claims sorts of things)

    Player.dat files are cleared according to our data cleanup policy. After this has happened a player will not be on /seen.

    It can happen in as little as 1 week to players with little money and 1 home.

    Ah, I see. I guess I assumed features and money for the co-owner of a town...but there's no reason for that. However, that does create the question of whether the six-month claim policy is valid...

    I believe it is a sliding scale. A Builder with no balance is going to be "cleansed" quicker than a Mayor (that would have a town to be claimed from)

    I have no idea where the break points ON that scale would be...

    The cleanup policy is located on the disclaimer page.

    EcoCityCraft’s Server File Cleanup Policy
    By using EcoCityCraft's server, you understand that your belongings are subject to the following risks associated with file maintenance:
    1. If you have not logged on to the server for 14 days your player.dat file will be cleaned out. This only affects your current inventory on your user, current armor, enderchest contents, and last log out location.
    2. If you have not logged on for 7 days, have 1200 or less EcoDollars, and no /sethome locations in your account, you will lose your 1200 EcoDollars. Simply return and vote on all 3 sites to get this back.
    3. If you have not logged on for 90 days (3 months), have 24,999 or less EcoDollars as well as 1 home or less in your account, you will lose your 24,999 EcoDollars and your last /sethome location.
    4. If you have not logged on for 180 days (6 months), have 24,999 or less EcoDollars as well as any amount of /sethome locations, you will lose your 24,999 EcoDollars and all your /sethome locations.
    5. If you have not logged on for 360 days (1 year), have 99,999 or less EcoDollars as well as any amount of /sethome locations, you will lose your 99,999 EcoDollars and all your /sethome locations.
    EcoCityCraft will not provide support or compensation for anything you may lose in one of these types of cleanups. It is the user's responsibility to keep their stuff stored safely should they need to leave for an extended period for any reason. For tips on how to avoid the effects of these cleanups, please see our Keeping Your Things Safe From File Cleanups page.
