Implemented Time to let the Community speak Series 1

...I hate random-crits..

 

I'm personally not one of the people who wants crits gone, but this suggestion is not about that in itself; it's about letting more people vote on the matter.

Just a reminder seeing as most people are guessing this is a "crits" thread again by the looks of it
(It is, just not directly).

 

Yes *_*

 

Vive la liberté.
Vive... La révolution!

 

Do it do it do it do it.

 

And I believe that atleast 80% of FoG server's popularity doesn't care about the forums, and they play as passangers.

 

Who is actually talking about the forums? An ingame-voting system =/= forum
even with this, doesnt mean that you can deny their vote?

well, I really dont understand what you're tying to say with this

 

Oh, I must have missed that it's an in-game voting system. I got it so that people would come here, to vote.

 

No, but I talked to the regulars I know if they want such a ingame voting and told them that they can vote for/against it, or not.
I pretty much believe they have also the right for a vote :3

 

It has some uses, but more negative things then positive.

For example, do you really want to hear the opinion of a bunch of 12-year-old kids?

 

Which negative things? Are you talking about the poll or about the suggestion itself? (the ingame voting)

If you talk about the poll: I am pretty sure that I know the 2Fort regulars

If you talk about the ingame voting: I dont even want to answer on this. As the votescramble for example got disabled "lol bunch of kids" wasn't even an "argument" (Yes, 2fort does not have a scramble-voting, because the scramble itself would suck , statemant from noname)

"Bunch of Kids" is in my opinion a really weak argument for this case.
And a ingame-voting would just be fair, not only for a "bunch of kids" - for everyone.

And the guys you called a "bunch of kids"(if you're talking about the fact that I asked the guys to vote here if they want) right now, are playing 2Fort almost daily, aka supporting (kind of).
Good.


I dont see any problem with letting the people(regulars for example.) on the servers vote on poll, neither that they can have a new ingame-voting.

 

As much as freedom to the players is a great thing, consider the following question:

Will it have an effect on the popularity of the server?
People may not like having the rules of the game change like that. Some people prefer a server to be consistent about its rules (In the aspect of the game going "Now you can random crit..and now you can't").

I don't mean to stomp on your parade either, but you should be able to answer any questions to the suggestion, not say this

I'm not hating against youngsters myself but many people stand on the "I prefer a server without them" because undeniably the bunch of kids Ace is referring to are those that mostly come to bother you with inconceivable suggestions and requests like "stand still so I can try this out" as they're moving in to kill you for example.
It may be unpleasant for some players if they vote for either side but lose the poll because of the knowledge of whom affected it.

They are not supporting your suggestion because they are playing the game.
They'll need to come here and prove their support.

Don't be mistaken, I am still for implementing the freedom for the players.
Just, not everyone are.

 

Noname told me, if the crits are off, the server needs a bit more time to get full, but I cant answer you the question if the people can vote ingame. So I dont know if it will have any effect regarding the popularity or not. So, I would just say to try it out first?

That I dont want to answer on something doesnt mean that I am not able to /I won't answer.
I also answered right after? Maybw I dont get the point here

You are right here. Indeed there are people who says "I dont like servers with a bunch of kids.." but does that mean that no one is allowed to vote on something? Its not that they would overrule this now or something.
Also, "It may be unpleasant for some players if they vote for either side but lose the poll because of the knowledge of whom affected it. " we never had really such a problem with votescramble for example, but idk.

I never said that they are supporting my suggestion because they play on the server, It was meaned more the way "they support the servers because they play on the server"

I cant and won't force anyone to "support" this suggestion, they can vote on the suggestion for or against it, or not.

 

If you don't know, then you very well cannot really cover for that particular matter.

That's not what it looks like, believe it or not.

Here is why I was convinced that was what you were attempting to get across.

Also, when you say that you know the "regulars", does this mean you remember what people play there often, or that you know them on a more personal level such as age and names and alike?
Being the internet, not everything is true despite what one might say.
Just keep that in mind.

 

"but idk" because a votescramble is a different thing than a voting for crits on/off I can't really "know" If we never had it

at the question about the regulars: I know, that some of them are daily on 2fort, some regulars on a more "personal level", of course, not of anyone, but I am pretty sure that the regulars I am talking about arent a stupid bunch of kids.

Yes, this internet..but even if I have a totally wrong impression of one regular for example, doesnt mean his opinion/voting is invalid, just because he is 12 instead of 18 and still a mature guy.

 

I am assured that's not the case.

But in the end, let's see where the suggestion goes.

 

+1

 

This receives the wardey stamp of approval

 

#bumpforpureandrightousjustice #gravedigging #closeme

Note that most people just press a random number to get rid of the voting table for maps.

Why do you think they'll do it differently?

Also not to consider that if people want change, they have to go through some considerable effort to put something here meaning it may be something of actual value.

For crits I guess this would work, but in any other aspect (as you're suggesting) I don't think this is really a viable method; we need to discuss changes and agree on them, anyone who isn't signed up to the forums and is a regular of the servers has only themselves to blame (they're prompted every now and then to join).

TL;DR minor things like Crits, sure - anything else no.

 

I don't see how this could be used for big discussions, as you need more than a choice of "yes" or "no", with crits, the vote wouldnt be permanent (I think), it would only affect that round/map.
