Global Rating System - GRS

[MtnDew]

There's no assured way of blocking such things if you're releasing it publicly. Anyone is able to open up your script and see how any security measures you may have implemented are able to be gotten around.

:< well, could you help us anyways.

Maybe we wont release it publicly.
Just to major server hosts..

People who host alot of servers.

GRS

How it will work

Player Rating
If a player joins a server running GRS, the player will be shown the server's rank points.
(Records via BLID)
If that player gets banned from that server, he will lose 1 Player rank point.
(regardless of that server's rating.)

If that player joins a different server, his/her rank points will be displayed to all of the players on that server.
When a rank is displayed, People can make judgments on that person.

"Hm, Plaz has -129999 Rank points.. It looks like he hasn't been good recently.. "

Server Rating
That's right. A server can have a rating too.
If a server bans someone with a positive rating over 5.
That server will lose 1 rank point.

This can warn people connecting to such server, that it's either bad or good.


Why the forget Pandan?
Because, i think that people like Plaz and Inaxio shouldn't be ignored.
If we can't stop them from buying BLIDs. Then we can atleast warn people about them.

Code: [Select]

8:35 PM - Mr. Doom: Server Rank 0-5 (Floats allowed),
8:36 PM - Mr. Doom: if server rank is 5 and bans a player that player is hurt with something like -2 points
8:36 PM - Mr. Doom: if 0 it is not hurt at all
8:36 PM - Mr. Doom: so a math fourmula would do it
8:37 PM - Mr. Doom: PlayerPointLoss = mFloor((Srank*2)/5)
8:37 PM - Mr. Doom: or = mFloor(Srank*2.5)
8:38 PM - Mr. Doom: THANK YOU ALGEBRA 1


Uh, what about Badmins?

[MtnDew]

http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=76006.0 Even jacked the abbreviation.

I swear, i didn't know it existed.

WE CAN SWITCH THE NAME IF YOU WANT JIMMG.
Seriously, who cares.

Uh, what about Badmins?

Thanks for quoting the entire thing dumb stuff.

Badmins are rated for banning a player that has positive points.

I might help come up with some stuff.

:D

You still didn't comment on my second statement. :<

It also seems kind of stupid though the way the server system works, because then people with high points have this sense of invincibility where they can do whatever they want, because getting banned would mean the server would lose points.

[MtnDew]

You still didn't comment on my second statement. :<

People with good points lose points regardless if they are banned form a good or bad server.

We are still working this out.

It needs to be sophisticated.

This mod is going to fail horribly due to one reason.

If a server bans someone with a positive rating over 5.
That server will lose 1 rank point.

Well, what happens if a server has different rules, or the player is being an idiot on a different server. What if the person is just generally a handicap and people mis-rate him to mess with him?

[Tom]

Its also gonna be really hard to make it secure without clientside stuff.

[PawlBear]

Woo! Another way of judging people! Why don't we have it display race and love too, and maybe bitch until we get it to display age, so we can bitch when someone puts it other then their own age! Or we can have it say weather they are jealous of you, so you can also bitch about it

Your part of the reason why we are making this.

Its all Team Metaslave's fault.
He has turned you into some friend who like to ruin other people's fun.

People with good points lose points regardless if they are banned form a good or bad server.

That wasn't my point, I was saying that people with high points will still feel invincible. They'll think that the host would rather allow their friendry than lose a point for banning them, and a lot of hosts might actually do that.

[MtnDew]

This whole system is still a work in progress.

I need to find a solid point reward system.
Give me a couple hours to plan this out.

[Regulith]

Okay, hope it turns out good.

[Space Guy]

Is there any way to actually gain points or is it just extreme punishment? Surely the first minute the server loses any rating points it'll just disable the Add-On?

[rkynick]

I'm going to jack my score up into the billions, then make a mod that allows you to filter poorly ranked servers from well ranked servers, but taken by average so only my server shows up.
