PSA: Understanding "Spool-Up"
<< < (6/7) > >>
firestorm:
For some reason I never truly leave the Spool Up period. I get 18+ players, and then all of sudden it's 6.  I just don't understand. But nobody ever get's tired of Tezuni's Prison stuff. :/

Or you could make it so that only people who have played for more than at least 30min can rate.

Think about it.  Would you really force yourself to play on a terrible server for 30 whole minutes just so you can give it a bad rating?  Without bad ratings every server would be in the 4-5 stars range.

Friendship is magic!
Sleven:
If I join a server it's because I either want to participate in the server's collaborative events (tdm or whatever, thus I need people on the server) or build (which needs no people really, I often go single.. but if I have something interesting to build on the server, like syl's, I can defo solo).

In short, I join popular servers or go single.
TristanLuigi:
Server rating is needed so much. Maybe you need to stay for at least 5 (10?) minutes, or there could be a trust system that you apply for to become a server rater. Alternatively, you could sort based off of ID's, but there can be mature people with a high ID and immature people with a low ID.

As for different kinds of server, maybe you can optionally reset your ratings once a week or something.
