PvP Boosting, we need change

[Griffinfan]

So this is a problem that has been building, more people are getting into it then ever.
When I say "boosting" I mean paying people or making alts to boost off of. (Boost meaning, killing the character many many times in a row to get alot of kills and a good KDR)

So recently Kanital got bumped to number 2 spot on the leader boards by a mage no one has ever seen, and this happens in one week whereas it has taken Kanital 1-2 years to get his amount of kills? hmm.

Many of the Ranger and Paladin boards are rigged this way with people who boost also.

Now I am not saying that boosting is against STS rules because it isn't, I am just proposing some changes.



Changes:

You can only kill a single character 50 times in a row. To reset the counter you must distribute a certain amount of kills to other players before killing the player again.

Decrease the level of joining a pvp game to 2 levels. This is the way it is in AL and it is much more fair and balanced. With this is effect a 56 game would only be joinable by 58's or 54's etc.

this would also make it ALOT harder for people who use bots to do this kind of thing.


Please please please consider these STS, we need change, the leaderboards are a joke now! bring them back!

What if they have 3 devices, and 3 accounts? The kills farmer just has to kill each of the 2 others accounts alternatively and it wouldn't stop boosting :/

This wouldn't change anything at all.. ;/.. They just have to make 2 lvl10 and farm with forgotten bows..
In addition, many levels would become empty :/..

However, this idea would be interesting between lvl61 and 66 since that, when you get 66, you get 9 skill points, but wouldn't change many things about boosting...

_______


2 things devs can do about boosting is :

- Ban the booster to avoid others to copy them.
- Put back to 0 pvp/ctf kills/deaths from a guy who boosted.


_______

Look at the fox top1 ctf kills -That I won't name...-, he surely used a bot to be farming kills for nearly 18 hours NON STOP into the same Locked ctf match. It must be the same about the mage who hit 110k kills in pvp. Even if MANY of us have reported it, it wasn't looked into..

Devs, why don't you erase their -in a way- cheated kills?

Cya everyone ._.

Its a good Idea, but what if they do that and the computer code they use to track these guys picks up real users with good kdr's?

what would be the "line" you would cross for boosting, maybe being reported for it? and then they find it out?.

Maybe our solution is just having the devs make this against the rules and look into the boosting problems.

I enjoy fighting 56's on my 51 and 60-61's on my 56...

[Twink]

Boosting is a big problem, buy it won't be solved with these suggestions, Griffin.

But if devs did as chickenrunnnnnnnnnnnnnn said... now that would work.

[CrimsonTider]

STS has the knowledge/power/ability to look into this. Variables such as log-in/out times, when kills were earned, etc. can be determined through a variety of logs. The only issue: IF they choose to look into this or not.

[Ape]

The guy who boosted his kdr is from a whole guild with boosted kdr.
Ive also been told they use ghostmouse and they arent any good in real pvp.

[Pvpfeed]

I think you guys are just overreacting... Yeah, we can tell that they boost by their kdr, but you can't do anything about. Anyways it's just boosting. Besides, every single comment I see about people complaining don't really have a point. When we see a booster's kdr, we can tell that they actually didn't get that. The only negative thing I see about boosters is that they get on leader boards by being unfair. You can't be on the forums complaining, if you really don't like boosters why not join all their games and ruin their kdr..

[Caiahar]

Sure pvp feed! ANTI-BOOSTERS,UNITE!!!! Let's all go farm some boosters!

[CrimsonTider]

You can't be on the forums complaining, if you really don't like boosters why not join all their games and ruin their kdr..

One small obstacle: Passwords.

yeah I was going to say that, but still you can try spending hours trying to reveal the password ;)

[Griffinfan]

The things I said were suggestions, I am open to suggestions from anyone, if we push the issue maybe, just maybe they will do something.

Big Maybe.

[Yich]

What about the inactive PvP levels? I think having 10 different levels able to join a game is great. If you dont like it, host a game 5 levels under the toon you wish to PvP with.

[tHelonestud]

Here is the solution
Eliminate kill counts
Your legendariness gets spread with your name when people fight you and say "OMG he is pro bear"
Of course, that never happens now because with the current gameplay Pro = Luck, so no one really cares
What does having more kills even prove?

I mean I know people have literally worked years for their sums of kills
Perhaps every season get the top 10 pvp LB players and have a tourney to root out boosters and last two get an exclusive vanity or somethings?

[KingFu]

I enjoy fighting 56's on my 51 and 60-61's on my 56...

So you enjoy dying? You can hardly handle pvping people your own level.

[Griffinfan]

I don't get what hes saying, I hate pvping 56's on my 51, its impossible to fight a dex bird with a 51 mage. same with 56/61 except you have alittle bit more of a chance, not much more tho

[OverkillED]

Here is the solution
Eliminate kill counts.


^This up here is the solution to the huge egos about KDR, QQ about boosting, the concept of "free kills," the "Go!" system, and crying about KDR. This will also eliminate envy of others' KDRs and rushing them, thus boosting self esteem and desire to work harder to become better, and not caring about how many deaths along the way. World of Warcraft only has a scoreboard for each battleground or arena (Killing Blows, Deaths, Amount of DMG done, and Amount of Healing Done). Arena ladders and rating are the closest thing to KDR, but are still not the same thing.

I understand that it is hard to compare a mobile game to a desktop game, as a desktop game has lots more data. I noticed that when I play PvP in PL, I tend to get aggravated and frustrated after getting teamed, rushed, or trash talked. Most of my fights usually start with me "rushing" someone, and then not giving a free. Without kill counts, people won't complain about this, for it won't matter anymore. When I play PvP in WoW, I don't care that much about dying. Of course it doesn't feel good being dominated, but I don't get as aggravated due to the strategy implied to PvP and team based play. There is no communication between the two opposing teams, therefore you HAVE to win the game, otherwise it'd be boring. Overall, PL PvP needs a rebalance as well as eliminating kill count.

[CrimsonTider]

I agree with the removal of not just these LB's but ALL LB's. I have never cared, nor tried, to be on the boards, but it would eliminate the need for rage and perfection while still providing competitive environments.

not a good bird, with obedience set and good tactic, no way.

as a 56 bird myself 51 mages are ez, 56 mages are hard.

[Ape]

A barrier where you spawn behind would be nice, So the cant spawn anymore.
This would also make farming (private game) alot harder en slower.

Yeah like DL, i think that would be cool, but you wouldn't be able to go back into spawn once you left it just so its fair

[tHelonestud]

Yeah like DL, i think that would be cool, but you wouldn't be able to go back into spawn once you left it just so its fair
make games that are joined but not hosted like sign up through those one NPC and the kills only count in those non hosted games

[Jig]

Who cares about boosters, the ones that need to be banned are the ones like exaomple, that bird in ctf endgame i wont name, and the mage in dm kills, i bet he has like 1k death because 1-2 weeks ago that name never existed in lb, then boom 120k in what 2 weeks? yeah thats really fair, people that want in lb FIRST place like Kanital and ace wait, there is 2 boosting mages in dm kills i know for sure and people have seen proof, lb is filled with boosters but devs do nothing about it, boosters play for a couple of weeks in lb, these legit players play for years and what they put their hard work in but nah they just get removed for boosters... thats fair.. at least in other games like cod people take there 1st 2nd 3rd places they ban and remove..

bring your 51 mage.. ill fight you with my bird..

Funny how devs stick their noses in other threads but in threads about boosting they coward out and dnt see a single dev response.
They arent going to do anything about it. Period.
My name is RANGINGMANTIS and i surely approve this message lol. I was #1 Fox for DM and CTF kills till some lame KAKAYOYO Took both my spots in less than two weeks.
Hmmmmmm.

Ah dear Mystical,

There was once a saying, "If you don't have something nice to say, then don't say anything at all" Perhaps that is applicable, no? Nobody invited you to troll here and if you would like to see my stats I am personally inviting you to come see them. But if you step into the arena that I am in you will be rushed by me like I rush everyone else.

I am not going to waste time posting pictures on here to prove myself, my proof is in the game in the arena's. If you would like to come see me then you have a free invite from me. I frequent level 26-35 games the most 3-9 time range eastern standard.

Also you may base skill on kdr but I beg to differ, I would say skill is measured in the players ability to utilize the environment and, in this case, win the match with the best possible outcome. Kdr's are just a shallow face value of the players capabilities (speaking in the context of those that try at pvp instead of selling deaths)

Secondly:

There is a fine line between having fun, and mocking, I would say you just crossed it bud. Again with your comments refer to the useful quote above. ^ I believe standing up for the truth is important, and that comment was below you, or was it?

Lastly:

I don't appreciate you hi-jacking my threads to push your agenda of trolling, take it somewhere else. We are trying to get suggestions to solve problems and if your not here to contribute then go to other threads.

I never claimed I was nice. I'm not selling Girl Scout cookies.

Never said anything about KD either. I said kills, which equal experience.

Thanks for the essay though.

I disagree, kills on one character doesnt define experience, I know one noob with 112k kills on ldrboards that cant fight to save his life, so he boosts.

And NP on the "essay" took 2 minutes

I start FFA when I join.

if you don't like it leave.

I don't rush then leave (sometimes to annoy people who think they are pro) but I stay and have fun with a FFA (Mind you the way PVP was designed)

I wouldn't talk about what you don't know about.

PM what level you pvp at and your IGN, ill be happy to do some games with you to show my lack of skill.

Hate to break it to you but rushing is different than FFA, that's why people don't go into a ctf match and say "Ok rushing only"
FFA is fair; rushing is not
FFA is agreed upon; rushing is not
FFA is how pvp was designed; rushing is not
FFA requires skill; rushing does not

You join a game and impose your own desires on every other person in the match is essentially what you are saying?
If the people who were there first don't want what you want, THEY have to leave?

Apparently, you have trouble differentiating words and considering the opinions of others.
If you want a true free for all as "PVP was designed", why can't you host games, wait for even teams, and have a good match?

Again, I never said you lacked skill, I simply stated the irony of you previous statements versus your signature.

If you want to know I occasionally pvp at 45/50/51.

Impose my desires huh?

There is a neat feature called locked games. When someone hosts a game without locking they are taking the chance someone may come and rush in the game.

Secondly, rushing is a art, it is definately the way PVP was designed other wise it would be like some other games where you must request a duel with the person. The "Go" system was developed by those who want to polish their shiny KDR's because they can't handle being unprepared for a fight.

If you don't think rushing improves skill then fight me sometime and we will see since I rush full time.

Also, FFA apparantly has a different definition to you. FFA means Free for all. It does not mean everyone agree on a time to start then we can start hitting each other as long as no one gets mad because its unfair. Free For All.

Though they would never admit it, those I rush are better because I rush them, they quickly learn tactics that they will use whether they are rushers or use the go system.

I fail to see what you are getting at with this. Are we talking about my skill, or what FFA and PVP are? or are you just buttering up to Mystical again? Please clarify.

I swear PvP needs a TOTAL revamp. All this crying and crap is just killing me. I was banned for a week by just getting muted once and went to WoW in that week (I'll be back on Sunday), and there's almost none of this boosting, crying, rushing, FFA'ing, and all this QQ. Take out chat (Other than with your own team) and imply some damn strategy and teamwork to PvP other than CTF. It shouldn't be a 1v1 based game. Team coordination will ALWAYS take so much more skill than 1v1. Take out KDRs but for leaderboards have most game wins. AL PvP has less of these issues. Add something like where 3 people have to be on a team for the game to start. This takes out the concept of "teaming" and crying about it. PvP is another bridge. Getting teamed is another bridge. Get over it, practice, and get better.

EDIT: Also, please revamp your damn stat - gear - health relationship. Rushing wouldn't be a problem if health pools were over 2000 where you wouldn't die in 1 GCD and an auto because you have some time to react. Dodge is out of control as well. If you're going to have that much of defensive stats, I understand you made everyone have insane burst, but increase health pools or just lower the stats of gear in general. I don't want to have to use the D-word so much but it really makes me mad seeing all this QQ.

Number of times I have said go in Halo: Zero. Number of times K have been killed at spawn: 1001039847493874739. Only thing I have to worry about is "5, 4, 3, 2, 1.... beeep."

You can get one shotted in Halo, but nobody really cares because you can just say "Aww man" (or rage irl), and respawn and try getting the person who killed you. What's funny is that in Halo and WoW PvP, you generally want to get up after you die or get teamed, determined to kill the enemy or try winning the game. Of course nobody likes being utterly dominated, and that's in all games. In PL, it's more like Every Man for Himself; your KDR matters more than the team effort and winning the game.

In WoW and (I think) Halo, you get credits and honor points for winning games and for getting kills, but it all adds up at the end of the game, so you're determined to contribute for the team and win the game. I haven't played Halo in a looong time.

[OverkillED]

Oh, and sorry for the double post, but people will be defending PvE, saying "Oh if StS balances PvP, then PvE won't be balanced." That's true, but then StS SHOULD NERF THE MOBS! The mobs are out of control, demanding insane damage plus having to use elixirs. That's total BS (Bull feces). IT IS possible PvP and PvE to be balanced.

You are correct and I have said more than once that my favorite mode in Halo is SWAT: One shot, one kill. No luck, no dodge. Just who is the sneakiest/fastest/able to adapt the fastest. They also just added a new pack where the smaller maps use a variety of weapons and it is all based on your on screen drop. Everyone has a different weapon and it's awesome! I don't get mad because someone received a rocket launcher and I got a speed boost.

The medals and ranking system also make the game fun. It does keep track of kdr but I could care less, much like in PL.

[Jig]

Get of Galo and play Black ops 2!! That game, surely takes skill .. But still I dont understand why you guys re comparing a RPG MMO game to a console multipayer game :/ of course console games are always going to win especially black ops 2 :)

[Impact]

So this is a problem that has been building, more people are getting into it then ever.
When I say "boosting" I mean paying people or making alts to boost off of. (Boost meaning, killing the character many many times in a row to get alot of kills and a good KDR)

So recently Kanital got bumped to number 2 spot on the leader boards by a mage no one has ever seen, and this happens in one week whereas it has taken Kanital 1-2 years to get his amount of kills? hmm.

Many of the Ranger and Paladin boards are rigged this way with people who boost also.

Now I am not saying that boosting is against STS rules because it isn't, I am just proposing some changes.



Changes:

You can only kill a single character 50 times in a row. To reset the counter you must distribute a certain amount of kills to other players before killing the player again.

Decrease the level of joining a pvp game to 2 levels. This is the way it is in AL and it is much more fair and balanced. With this is effect a 56 game would only be joinable by 58's or 54's etc.

this would also make it ALOT harder for people who use bots to do this kind of thing.


Please please please consider these STS, we need change, the leaderboards are a joke now! bring them back!
I agree with boosters, if at least half of your kills are from the same guy after you reach 1k kills, banned 7 days if it continues but you've tried sonething different, like you get the majority of 10k kills from 5 different toons another 7 day ban, if this continues permanet ban.
I disagree with lvl ranges, lower lvl pvpers shud be given a boost of stats when fighting pvpers 5-10+ higher lvls then them ex: 10% more dmg,dodge,crit and armour to give at least a chance fighting people with much better gear

[quantionus]

dont decrease the level range and why do u care lb that much just have fun

Please please please consider these STS, we need change, the leaderboards are a joke now! bring them back!
I agree with boosters, if at least half of your kills are from the same guy after you reach 1k kills, banned 7 days if it continues but you've tried sonething different, like you get the majority of 10k kills from 5 different toons another 7 day ban, if this continues permanet ban.
I disagree with lvl ranges, lower lvl pvpers shud be given a boost of stats when fighting pvpers 5-10+ higher lvls then them ex: 10% more dmg,dodge,crit and armour to give at least a chance fighting people with much better gear
I strongly disagree with the stat boost

Here's the problem with that...I'll use kanital as an example. He has 100k plus kills. Atleast 2-3k of those kills are from the same player...see the problem?

Possible solution, clock reset at end of day...

Another problem with that..well 2 problems...
1) Some players play several match of ctf in a short amount of time, with the same players..
That or the player may continuously ffa/ctf with the same player/players throughout the whole day..how would you know when too stop? At 499? Unless you record your kills at the start...seems tedious and annoying

2) 499 kills a day
1k/2days
15k kills/30 days/month

2 diffrent toons 1k a day, 30k kills a month
3 toons...4, 5 etc.
