Someone doesn't like you for what ever reason your reputation just went out the window.

    For example, go take a look at the BF3 leaderboards. You really think people have 3.6 million meter headshots? No, they just used data tampering and wrote in some absurd numbers. Same thing can and most likely will happen here should a reputation system be implemented. You would have to make a pretty sophisticated system in order for such a feature to work the way it was meant to be used. I like the idea and would love to see it, but it's too bad people will inevitably abuse such a feature.

    People really like the convenience of the duty finder, but without any accountability, anyone an come in and just be an ass without major consequence.

    Don't really know, man. I wish I had an answer for you, but yes I agree. It would be nice if we could hold people accountable for being schmucks, but that's just the world we live in I guess. The best thing I can think of for people to do is to get into a decent ls/fc that tailors to that individual and group together. If you do that and find the right group for you the things others say and do won't really matter anymore. Wish I had a better answer than this, but I don't. You know the saying, an average person + an audience + anonymity = total f*#kwad.

    Easy. Make it world specific.
