random Duty Finder groups - Square Enix attitude solution INC

[KaiKatzchen]

I hope the stuff isn't only obtained this way, because while that certainly does encourage using the Derpy Finder and not being a prick, it doesn't encourage the basic principles behind a MMO... You know... How you find friends and play with them? I really have no reason to ever touch Duty Finder solo, but unless I do I don't get this stuff? Gee thanks for encouraging me to play with my friends...

I've been saying this for a while on this thread... this isn't a fix it's a bandage. It won't help, now people can say 'well if you don't vote for me then I won't beat this boss or do this run'. It could bring on a whole new form of harassment.

Or what happens when these people have everything they can get or want, SE will continually have to add new items, time that could be better spent on adding things into game that betters it as a whole.

Also as you said this game is supposed to be about creating communities and playing with your friends, and this essentially (much like duty finder) supports an anti-community attitude.

SE will do what they like, but in the end I doubt it will fix the problem. You don't fix a bad attitude by giving bad people rewards to be good. You let them know that attitudes like that will not be accepted and do what you need to do to punish them. If that means putting strikes on peoples accounts and not letting them into DF (which means no dungeon runs) for 'x' days, then so be it. That would fix peoples attitudes or get them out of the runs where they are abusing people.

Well erm no.... You can say whatever you want at the beginning of the run to appease these hostage takers. The vote happens when you've done the dungeon, in which case he can pretty much guarantee he won't be getting any vote.. Easy peasy
