Pilot Ratings, to counter th TKer in a galaxy - Page 2

yes.... that should have read "might create lag," seeing as I am not exactly sure what the effects would be. The problem is that I do not believe you can simply "add symbols" to the side. I believe (key word believe) that you would have to load an entirely different skin, and for something as large as a galaxy, that may take far more effort than the skins found on people.

O,ABTW, please don't get all pissed off until I start activly flaming you, disagreement isn't something to get so worked up about.

Well i won't say it would or would not mean more lag but seeign as they plan on having different squad logos you can put on your outfits and stuff i don't see why they couldn't use the same system for pilot rankings. But like i said easiest thing would simply be a PR menu.

What's the difference between accidently crashing a galaxy and accidentally shooting your team mate that's in a different squad and taking him out with a randomly lucky hit? I mean.. if your buddy is low on health and you accidently hose him or something or you're in a base, thinking you're all by yourself, you run around the corner, finger twitches and you waste your buddy.. Is that so different from crashing a galaxy on accident?

Going off this... Why not just give them grief points? They do... after all... go away.

That's why the system is so difficult to enforce.

Well grief points could work but they would need to adapt it to piloting since there can only be 2 levels (fly and no fly) and it should not take 20 crashes in 1 day to get a TKing status.

I think I said something about grief points. I'm not sure... Well, maybe we could have a pilot ranking AND grief points! So once your pilot ranking gets too low, you lose the priviledge to fly for a day and then the next day you can fly but if you keep crashing you'll keep getting grief points.
