DO NOT put in an MVP VOTING system!

[Farmer]

Please DO NOT put in an MVP VOTING system. You will further create trolling and mean players toward each other and the use of third party addons. This is one of the most ANTI-community systems you could EVER put into place. Akin to a Boot/kick feature.

I think you are doing this because you think most of the party will be good people who have a heart and will do the right thing by voting the nicest and best player and foster better behaviour of players. IT WONT! It will be used as a BULLY tool.

Other more mean players (majority) who would have booted you for your gear, or for lack of dps, or watching cutscenes, will use it as a trolling system. Its misuse can only result in lowering the self esteme of players who felt they did good and create fighting among the players fostering an atmosphere of hate towards your fellow player everytime you enter a dungeon.

(continued)

The people who will be most affected by this system being used as a bully tool will be undergeared players, people who do not top the dps (add-ons), and players who enter the duty finder with one or more friends (friend group-ups).

Please do not let this happen, you may have meant good by it, but it will result in an atmosphere as bad as a BOOT/KICK feature.

EDIT:

Its been brought to my attention that you cannot vote for someone you enterd duty finder with. This fosters an atmosphere of ONLY SOLO PLAYING, which would be completly ANTI-COMMUNITY also, which is another reason why this system should not be put in game!

I just wanted you to know

[Ebon_Drake]

that if your first post is too big

[Ebon_Drake]

you can edit it after you've submitted it the first time


and put ALL of your words into the first post so as not to use up your post count like I just did.

[Ryios]

you can edit it to add more than 1000 characters.

Also, it's already in the game, your a bit late. It's in patch 2.1/2.2 and it's coming out, so is the vote to kick stuff.

Why would it be bad? You won't be able to vote for your friend if you guys queue up together in a party, and the voting is done after the dungeon ends so that when someone threatens to "vote me mvp or i afk" you can just lie and say you'll vote for him, then leave as soon as the run is finished.

At least that's what I gathered from reading about the mvp system a few weeks back, I can't really remember too clearly.

if people get their feelings hurt because they didnt get MVP... well... they should seek help.

[Akira_Tenshi]

I disagree. I think it will help motivate people to work as team and to be friendly with each other. We don't really know how it's going to work yet anyway, just wait and see what happens.

There will be no under geared players in the Duty Finder since they're also adding an item level check before queuing. MVP lets the party pick whichever player was most helpful/performed best and rewards them for it.

How exactly can it be used to bully?
