Insecurity tends to create an increased need to posture and attempt to establish hierarchy. I have a sense that the type of people that get elitist about under-tuned roulette content tend to alienate a lot of people, which is probably why "run with a premade" never seems to be an acceptable solution despite it instantly alleviating basically all of their complaints. It's hard to make a premade when people avoid you.Quote:

I wonder if any of the people suggesting this have tried PvP in this game. Talk about matchmaking...
Anyways, its a dumb idea. -

I love how easy it is to tell who gets carried in here based on how they reply lol.
I just want people to pay 100% attention to this game when they are doing content with others. Instead we get too many people who are: 50% netflix, 25% phone, 25% game. -

Duty Finder has ruined me. -

I don't support it simply because it would never tell the whole story. You get people who like to help prog/reclears on another job, and they are lousy at it compared to their main raid job. You see this from time-to-time, someone who plays ranged but then struggles at melee because they think uptime at all costs.

02-04-2022, 11:15 PMMandudezShows how much you know. For starters blue is actually above average on the website alone. Most parses are pushed down by players flooding their parse run uploads. No way are people uploading their green/grays on purpose unless someone else in the party does it. I can guarantee you there are far more would be gray parses out there not uploads than there are purple/orange. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if that ratio was so high that it actually bumped every current parse up a color tier (so greens are now blue etc.).Quote:

What does ELO even mean?
Either way everything you said next is a terrible idea having a hidden skill rating is a terrible idea. If you are unfortunate enough to start with a bad group it has a high chance of them dragging you down with them putting you in an endless spiral downwards.
Besides keep GCD rolling? Since EW release my ping has increased by a mere 1000%, yes my ping went from 140 to 3000, sorry the bad servers and the influx of wow refugees and returning players is hurting my connection with the game, hurting my performance at the same rate. -

Iirc ELO is already inappropriate for team based PvP, where it's used a bit too often atm (with questionable results). xD Poor guy.
