In our empire overview page we have:

Message From Our Leader

However my question is would people find it useful for the game / family if you had:

Message From Our Leader:  (Taking Top Place)

AND

Message From Our Vice Leader:  (Taking Second Place - Could Also Make It a Smaller Box) 

Please keep in mind that any abuse, swearing, or fall outs and the leader can just remove the vice leader tag and perhaps have no vice leader or give it to someone else in the family.

You will get people saying (I don't want to read a huge message every time I log in) 

But that is not the intention, for example if your vice leader wrote:

"Warning - Two threats found in these systems  xx,xx" 

Then that 10 seconds effort could save your family 30 planets if not more.

If the vice leader wrote.

"Family xxxx have canceled NAP on us, our leader is offline, PLEASE START SAVING NOW!!"

Then no player can really say they missed it or was not warned and so on.    Is sometimes annoying to post a real threat in the family forum or to message players and it gets missed for ages, enemy attacker building portal and laser in this system please remove quickly, and its 6 ticks before anyone even looks at the post.

In the forum we get a "forum signature" which is 5 lines long or something, the same could apply to the vice leader message on the overview page, no more than 5 or 10 lines but enough to say:

Watch this system
Don't expo here
Please save for war

And so on......   

I guess its just an idea to give vice leaders more input into the family and game and create and more team work based environment.    If it was no more than 5 lines long then can not see the harm it would do and like stated any abuse or fall outs "Remove Tag" job done.
