@jeto sorry to ping you but I think we need to discuss this.
2nd from the top rank in the kingdom does have the power to kick players.
Is it supposed to work this way or can we remove this feature and keep itlike it is in Gow. If a leader goes absent after 30 days the dev team removes them.
Also I don’t like that it only says a player has left the kingdom.
I suggest it shows in detail more whether they were kicked or left on their own. As in Gow.
Thanks for reading. 
Personally I like it this way. I want my general to be able to kick players. I only have 1 general for accountability and we always discuss before we kick the player. I don’t really like the idea of players in the alliance being able to see who left and who was kicked as that can potentially be damaging for morale, so that’s something I personally wouldn’t want to see changed. I get your frustration, but its kind of a damned if you do, damned if you don’t situation.
King vanishes, seen this before, what is the kingdom supposed to do for 30 days without anyone to run? 
No body can gift, restock, kick. Essentially it kills the kingdom. This is an issue that should be taken care of in house (kingdom), not the devs. If people are over stepping their boundaries then they should be demoted so they have no control over kicking. If you don’t have 1 person you can trust , I don’t know what to say.
I don’t mind them using ignots. Its the kick ability I don’t like and yes waiting 30 days is ok.
I have 14 top ranked players who’ve earned their spot.
If they can kick at least let us see who did it.
I’m sorry your kingdom only has 1 other trusted person in the group but I’m sure more kingdoms have more than just 1.
Every Kingdom owner should get a own option to allow kick on 2nd Rank or not. If u able to disable the option it is a better feature 4 everyone.
If a leader is inactive for a set period of time, then they can be demoted and kicked by the next in rank, which is what happens in Gems of War.
We (the devs) don’t remove or demote players - it is the complete responsibility of the Guild/Kingdom
It is just a Kingdom leader who can kick and demote, just like GoW.
Getting into custom permissions for Kingdom members gets a bit tricky and is something that has been suggested a few times in the past.
Theres no reason it shouldnt say who was kicked and by who this is just common sense literally implemented by every other game with this type of system in place
We’ve tested it. The second rank can kick. Not just the leader.
Maybe it needs looked at then if it’s not working as intended.
Is that with an active Leader?
The game say only he leave the guild not he is kicked from person xyz in Gow u saw the kick and who did this. Sometimes is the information important who kick someone.
Yes , I’ve had them do it when I was away. Also back in jewel thieves some one kicked and wouldn’t fess up and it wasn’t the leader.
Is there any way for you guys to test yourself or how can you figure this out?
Yeah there will be, leave it with me
Perfect and thank you. I knew i could count on you and the dev team. You’re the best!
in GoW you can see who was kicked and by whom.. I do not know what that was like when it started in terms of how Guilds handled that information
But I do agree, it can go two ways knowing vs not knowing..
Also, it should just be the leader who can kick, which we now know is a bug if it’s not the case - so you should always know it was them and just not the context of why
See if you can kick me then that’d really be bugged
The King and Duke can both kick (Rank 1 and Rank 2) can kick too, its been like that since I started playing on PSN. Maybe that’s a bug, but that’s how its been since I started playing.
It’s been the way it is for 2+ years so I don’t get why it’s an “issue” now. To make it so only 1 person can kick is ridiculous. There is King
Make your #2 able to kick as it’s been. Then others generals not kicking a different label. Jester , joker, whatever. There is really no need for the devs to change anything.
Here is a scenario. Say a leader from any kingdom disappears , gets sick an accident or are grieving, abducted by aliens etc. . now for said period of time that kingdom is in trouble, especially if it’s not a top kingdom. Our kingdoms can withstand this sort of thing but we shouldn’t have too. Other kingdoms it more than likely could destroy them, people leaving , mutiny whatever. So basically this is promoting losing kingdoms and potentially losing players from the game. Devs losing money 
. It just doesn’t seem like a good idea.
It either needs to be changed, as that was never the intention
Or the text needs to be updated.
