The toxic player Issue

[Meister]

 

Another thing seems to be starting here: After i was spec in a TG, in which PhyZic accused me of giving other players information (all of the players of that game can assure i did not do that), Geriatrix stepped in and told i was using cheat mods and stuff. I then insulted him, for which i truly apologize. Then they keep making false claims about me. They try to get other players to not like me or whatever. I might sometimes rage a bit but do not use cheats. I wonder why they do so much drama with me.Still everyone keeps playing with --__-- account. Everyone knows who it is now. Yet - no action.

If someone is toxic, get evidence and report him.

There's so much drama here, I think one can chose where to get involved and where not. If one just wants to play a simple game that day, one can do so. I chose to get involved with fair-play aspect and it already takes more time than I like to spend on it.

In a previous thread that I started, I proposed a possible solution: an automatic multiplayer rating for 2 teams games.

If you have a working algorithm, maybe you can test it by modding local ratings mod. I think this mod currently does not rate well and favors certain styles and not just because there's too few games. ValihrAnt is rated 8.18 in replay-pallas.wildfiregames.ovh Players with higher rating than him: RangerK, FriedrichDerGrosse, Meister_Augustus, breakfastburrito_007, Atrik_III. All over 10 games.

I checked how well all past games are predicted by the current local rating of the players in my database and overall it predicts the team with a higher sum of lr is the winner in 59.3% of the cases (so it is better than random guessing). The 20 games I have with ValihrAnt got predicted 70% false by the sum of the lr of the team (so worse than random guessing). Btw. my lr is -20.64 so maybe I'm biased. If I clean up the statistics I can release more, but I think scrolling through replay-pallas.wildfiregames.ovh with players in mind you know should suffice to get a feeling of the accuracy of local ratings.

 

Another reason for toxicity I see is also the state of modding/cheating. Without discussing the cheats themself here it's also a culture shock for other gamers when they learn about the current state in 0 a.d.. This causes a lot of frustration which unloads in toxicity on both sides.

Addendum:


He is pinging everyone.



For probably this is the goal.

this thread is ending up the same as the other one. I don't quite think that one served well to its author and I don't see this one heading to a better direction.

@Meister I don't suppose you'd want to hear my advice, but if you keep reporting stuff here you'll exasperate the conflict so I say don't. remember you have as much power as he has and he doesn't like you but you don't like him either so that's it, suck it up.

just my 2 cents.
