They may be unable to RP due to real life problems, suchas internet not working or computer problems. I know from my own experinece that my internet can be a creul misstress as times.

Hi i have yet to start playing LoTC due to some problems, but surely for elves the guards of a city are also its army? Elves aren't tradionatlly a agressive military force, so the need for a standing army is sort of pointless? Guards in a city makes sense, 40 guards is a good sized force for the city, but also would it be possible for say 2/3 gaurds to be posted in other cities belonging to say humans and other races. This way you can summon allies when needed to defend the city against undead? Just a thought, by the way when i join i will be an elf and would be more than willing to join the guard/milita/army what ever it maybe. The question of forcing people to fight in the army is a good one normanly due in RP terms its not really acceptable as it forces people into doing somthing that their character may not be used to, would you have a farmer or merchant fight? No it doesn't suit their character. Hope my points have been of some use.
