HobGoblin Posted March 9 Report Share Posted March 9 There is no reason for a standard player to see exp on the scoreboard. The exp gets abused by players as they check the scoreboard to see how experienced the player is when interacting with them. Only admins need to see players exp for punishments or for other reasons. Which I'm sure could be added to the pannel if needed. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrisy Posted March 9 Report Share Posted March 9 Just no need for the leaderboard in general, I believe it could just be removed fully. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bala Posted March 9 Report Share Posted March 9 It was good in the past for metagaming when people you liked/disliked were online but since that got removed, there is literally no good or bad reason for a leader board anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtlasOLimbo Posted March 9 Report Share Posted March 9 I don't understand why we're so vehemently against seeing what players are online to begin with? If you truly are looking for someone, you can check their discord status, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clank Posted March 9 Report Share Posted March 9 Can we also get rid of /alias only an ID should show up above someone's head if anything. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richie194 Posted March 9 Report Share Posted March 9 Checking people's EXP on the spot is easier when it comes to criminal groups and their OOC requirements. For example a group with a minimum of 50k required will need to check who they recruit/talk to. Besides from that I dont see any positives or negatives, its just a list.

Chapman Posted March 9 Report Share Posted March 9 My opinion on EXP is that it's unnecessary to be shown on a list. You will have people who have little EXP who may know what they are doing or you may have a high EXP person who shows no regard to how the server or RP works. It should just be removed and have EXP only available to staff who need to see how long someone has been around, aside from still keeping what you can see on your panel in regards to your character playtime. If certain groups have an EXP requirement, a suggestion for that would be to interact more with that person and see if they know how to roleplay through normal RP means rather than based on the number of EXP points they have. The EXP list just seems like it motivates the swing of roleplay to determine if people should be allowed to do a certain thing whereas that shouldn't be the case, rather letting roleplay flow naturally regardless of an EXP level.

Dimja Posted March 10 Report Share Posted March 10 +1/-1 Often it is used to metagame a players experience and sometimes even to identify the player, but on the other hand it is quite useful during recruitment processes to see if someone has reached a certain amount of xp. I do believe that the player count leaderboard should always stay. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Requiem Posted March 11 Report Share Posted March 11 No need for the leaderboard. Get rid of it and if a faction leader/high command need to know someones exp for recruitment, just have that player send a screenshot of their /stats to verify.

Ritchie Stones Posted March 13 Report Share Posted March 13 idk i am at times genuinely curious on exp status. one time I spotted someone with +3 mil exp, considering I have +700k after 4 years, I just cant help but to imagine how long that guy must have been around, it means nothing but I for some reason do check on that to see if I can see someone with more than 4 mil exp XDXDXD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
