player rating system (similar to feedback on ebay)
I have been playing this game for a long time, and like many players I have noticed that there are some very VERY fun, outgoing, helpful players, but there are also rude, selfish, scamming players who care only about themselves.
I think that some way of telling how other players in the game have been liked by past groups in the past would be helpful when forming groups to predict how they will be in the future. A simple button next to each player in your parties name could do it. A + or thumbs up to give them a positive rating, and a - or thumbs down to give them a negative rating. This could be kept track of and made visible to other players through titles perhaps, or another way that could not be hidden or turned off. Pros:

What's to stop a total moron from making a group of his moron friends from giving a good player 10 bad votes? It happens on ebay and it will happen in GW if implemented.

You forgot the most obvious con, which in itself is reason enough not to implement this;
New guild policy! Everyone is required to give all other guildmembers good feedback and give everyone of [random other guild] bad feedback because we hate them so much. Also http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...php?t=10010852 http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...ad.php?t=34925 It wasn't in the index, but a quick search would've brought up those two on the first page. |

Too open to abuse by those same bad players you are complaining about.

Let me tell you a true story that happened to me once after we lost a mission:
Wammo: RAKEMAN YOU [censored] SUCK! [censored] YOU! Me: What are you talking about? Wammo: I DIDN'T SEE ONE [censored] MINION THE ENTIRE GAME! YOU'RE THE [censored] WORST [censored] NECRO I HAVE EVER SEEN! Me: Oh, I'm SS. Wammo: I DON'T CARE WHO THE [censored] YOU ARE, YOU [CENSORED] SUCK! I really don't want players like that to have the ability to rate other's playstyles. |

Yeah, your heart's in the right place, but I think (thanks to the above mentioned reasons of abuse) that this would quickly be, at best, meaningless and at worst, game-ruining.
 lol @ Rakeman's story, though! Reminds me of, "btw which one's Pink?"  too funny

If you've ever played the game Maplestory you'll know why not to have this system. Every little thing that ticks someone off ends with a defame. (fame -1)

I don't like the idea at all.
This feature could work out as a guild feature but as a community feature it would fail. As a guild feature, a person would only be able to rate guild members and see only the ratings of other guild members. It could give something PvE guilds to work with. |

Edit: I might see this happening if only positive points would be rewarded. But, as said earlier, it may end up like top 100 sites (you can only play this game if you hit the vote button 4 times!). Or, lmao, selling favorable rating points!!!! you know it would happen!! Last edited by Not A Fifty Five; Dec 18, 2006 at 11:36 PM // 23:36.. |

It would only work in a perfect world, which is neither RL nor GW. |

It doesn't work for ebay, and it wouldn't work for GW. |

Trying to think of ways to make this work, and I have to agree with the guys above that this would be easily abuseable.
A few restrictions would help, but even the couple I can think of can be gotten around(only can give ratings to people you are currently in party with, cannot be graded until you've ascended/rof'ed etc) While the restrictions I can think of would make it obvious who the absolute worst players are(as they have no friends/guild to boost their rating), you would still run into a ton of nasty players for the simple reason that everyone would have a good rating. Thereby nullifying the whole point of the system. To add a system like this they would have to institute a 'farming code' just for it, to ensure that abuse is kept to a minimum.Guildies wouldn't be affected because if you group with them often, they know your skill level and not being able to boost your rating wouldn't matter much to them(as they already know you're good/bad). All in all, it sounds(to me) like too much work for the dev's when they couldn be working on something less important. So while it would be nice, /unsigned for something I use my friends list for(if you're on the list, you're a friendly/good player) But that's just my two cents

this would only really be good for guilds, like if too many people have a problem with a guildie, like hes being vulgar to everyone BUT officers and the leader, so they dont know, all that negative feedback cant just be a coincidence... tho that also could be abused, but no where near as much as global rating, so sorry mate, good idea, bad world
