So most ppl will think abc is just a joke ( in a positive way ) But it's really a problem.
Banned users are just joining ranked games and ruin everything for other players ( making accounts to force meteor on town, ... ) This needs
to change because it's a really big problem that doesn't get talked about. If real new players join they could get confused by this situation... ( just imagine it ). Is there nothing we can do against it?
Is the noavi a new player that wants to play a new game or is it a banned user cheating and ruining the game? Are we allowed to kick those players?
Discuss, because of now mods ( if they are even online ) bans the player after the player is reported and then the banned user can still ruin multiple games.
Scum, nazi, filth, trash, garbage, maggots. We're all ruled by little chicken-neck nellies, going "Kill everybody! I get off when I talk about cutting people's power off! I'm a nelly!" RAARGH! Just simpering control freaks, in big nerd packs, taking everything over, ruling everything. Becoming police officers with weapons, tasering us for fun. I've had it with control freaks and scum! You people are cancer! Ugh! Alright, I'm not in a good mood now. I start thinking about Bill Gates, that little chicken-neck, hopping around, little murdering eugenicist. You know how he walks, like a demonic elf. "I'm Bill Gates! I'm gonna shoot you up with something that's gonna kill you deader than a hammer. How's a 30 year death from gut disease sound, African children? Roll up the sleeves! I'm a little chicken-neck bastard, and nobody's got the will to see what I am!"
up the number of unranked games you need to play before you can do ranked, even if it doesn't stop them it will happen less since they need to waste more time
what about a system where a user with 3 reports pending is unable to join more games until the report queue is cleared, meanwhile you punish anyone who is filling false reports.
It's an idea I think is pretty decent and shouldn't have much drawbacks, we can always try it out and look.
It does take 20-25 min for abc to get a ranked account, but if we could make that time long liker 50 minutes, we profit from it, mods will have less work, noavies will practice more before playing ( at least that's what I hope ).
Either way nice that ppl discuss it a bit since it gets left out in the dark and some ppl ( including me ) get a bit irritated when things like that happen.
[quote=katebushterror] Sorry I've had a big presentation yesterday for a lot of teachers, parents, classmates and other classmen. Had a really though month since my whole school year pretty much depended on it.
Thanks for the nice response, I appreciate it. Sorry if I offended people, I really don't mean to, soon I have exams and after that I have a long vacation to clear my head a little.
I think that the number of unranked games you need to play before ranked could be upped, but then you could just remove the requirement when creating alts attached to a main account that's played out the games.
So someone like ABC would have to play through 10+ unranked games to start GTing, but people who are just making alt accounts don't have to.
I also really think that there should just be a kick system for ranked. If 70% of the people required to start the setup vote to kick someone, they could be kicked. If friends abusing the system really becomes an issue, there could just be a limit of 1 kick per lobby or something.
[quote=Torreador] I've never seen coldie 'bully' a new user so maybe shut the f/u/c/k up about coldie and focus on what this thread is actually about???
The issue with a lot of these ideas may push away new users which halts community growth
Raising the bar to ranked means people playing even more sandbox games which helps learn role mechanics but less so of actual mafia you'd see in Main. Kicking from Main is also anti-new users, it will be used more for that than it would for stopping banned users. They can go usually 2-5 games before getting site banned by a mod(depending on the time of day), so this kicking tool will definitely be used more-so to kick newer players. Whatever conditions you try to add to that won't fix that issue.
the only actual way to stop it is to use two factor authentication, but it would never be implemented because this site barely makes profits to afford that
