Mentors...please!

[Valkyrie_Lenneth]

Maybe someone else will make a rational offer. It would be really nice to hear him. For example, somehow reorganize the "add to blacklist" system to avoid getting into roulettes with these people (I know a game in which this is well implemented - Star Wars: The Old Republic).
Or introduce a point system to evaluate mentors.
In short, to offer what would actually work.

But the hardest thing right now is that the gaming community is passive and taking toxicity as the norm. The toxicity of ordinary players was mentioned here. Yes, alas, it 's true. And something needs to be done about that, too. But for now we can start with mentors, as they, taking on this role, signed up to the rules of the game and have privileges from their status.

A grading system with points is a bad idea, that simply allows new players to either hold mentors hostage with the threat of bad ratings, or people will just misuse them, or it'll be like commendations and worthless.


As for the other, you could then have issues where groups of people blacklist players vindictively. This again, would be misused and cause issues. You could effectively lock someone out of duty finder with that.

Plus, people farmed commendations by using friends. What makes think they wouldn't do the same with a grading point system. Get friends to make new chars, queue up for obscure duty, get high ratings. Repeat.
