    Lol what a weird idea. Lol… Might as well just set different server instance for every tier of players based on gear level or some other arbitrary metrics so the top percentile players never have to deal, interact or even see the filthy casual peasants?

    I feel the OP would rather gate when you try and log into the game. username.. password.. gaming resume. The resume could be forwarded to the OP's elite team of gamers to see if they would be allowed to log in and play. the "lucky" ones would get to play with the OP.. the rest, diverted to Hello Kitty or something...

    I think for me... this kind of bs rating system in a pve game is.. a hard no.

    Wow. What a toxic response.

    Nowhere did I even say I was elite anywhere. Just wanting better skill matchups for parties.

    Wish there was a quantifiable way to remove people like you from the game, that would make it very enjoyable.

    thats cute.

    you want to apply a ranking system to the game, so that people get put into little niches of playstyle/ability and *I* am toxic and should be removed from the game.

    as has been said, the tools for "better skill matchups" exist in game. its called, friends, even linkshells of like minded people as yourself. its all doable and not nearly as "toxic" as implementing a system for ranking every player in the game per your liking.

    by the way, is this NOT from your original post?

    I can say with a fair degree of confidence you do not lump yourself in with the "Toxic Casuals"

    so, yeah, I think you said you were elite....

    statistically speaking, the vast majority of players will be mid tier, which means, your ranking system would actually do nothing for you.

    which means you are back to finding an FC which plays the way you want to play, or, friends...
