Community Top Players tbhWhat is this tbh?In this thread, we will be inviting the community to suggest and vote for the top 10 players that they have fought against or watched fight on SLO. This includes everyone, active or inactive, and can be from any clan, organisation or group in the game, even your own. These top players won't get any rewards or royalties, but will be shown gratitude and recognition for their grinding and the hours they spend on SLO trying to improve their combat. It will also give people that are trying to improve their combat, a goal or target to beat, as well as encouraging more people to grind out the game to create reputation, allowing them to build more clans and Organisations that people will be willing to join. It will also allow us to see how people adapt to new game mechanics, and how the ranking of shinobi changes with new gameplay.
When will this happen tbh?For the start of this thread, we will be going through a, test period? Basically, we will be collecting, conducting and creating the results for the rankings every 2 - 4 weeks, to see how the community reacts to the thread, and to try and grow it and make it well known before we dedicate a lot more time to it.
Our Concerns tbhThreads that compare players to to others can be very controversial and can spark a lot of hate and saltiness in the community. We want to make sure that everyone is aware that this is just for fun. However, it does have a deeper meaning and we do want people to be aware that we are trying to encourage people to become better at the game, to make it more even and enjoyable at full release.
How can we improve this if it gets popular tbh?We have a bases on what we want to achieve with this forum, and with that, have ideas that we can implement into this with help from other user forums in the future. We are also willing to take any criticism from this and use it to improve the forum for as many people as possible. Things we will be looking to improve on as we go on are (These are just ideas):
- We would like to talk to each individual (interview?) that is nominated after the results are up, to get some information about them and how they improved their play style in SLO to give them their recognition from the community. (Diamond Lee, hit us up ya kno)
- We would like to create result tables in the future that will hold a lot more details than just the winners name, and their ranking within the votes. This would include Clans and Orgs affiliated with the winners, wanted Chakra types and fighting styles, and other not so important, but interesting information about the winners.
- One idea that came along with this is tournaments, the best fighting against the best. We believe that holding, recording and uploading these events for people to watch can help grow the SLO community. However, these events will be very hard to hold as people are busy and can't always spam SLO, meaning that it might be something that we’re not possible to do with our forum. :,(
How will the voting work tbh?Our voting system seems tedious, but don't worry… you won't have to do much.
Users will enter the name of 1-3 players that they want to nominate to go into the polling stages. These names will be posted in the forum page, and we will check through them and put the top 10 players through to a poll (this may take a while depending on how many people vote). Everyone can vote in the poll to choose who they believe is the best out of the 10 making it fair and unbiased. We didn't want to chose the nominees ourselves because we don’t believe we get to see, or play enough players in the game to get a good understanding of who is really excelling in SLO. We believe that asking the community keeps it fair and will hopefully reduce any possible salt (probably not tbh).
Conclusion tbh?Tbh, this idea will probably take forever to do, but we do believe it will be very positive for the community and will hopefully encourage people to play more. It will be tedious and take a while until a better voting and collection system is created, but for now , this will do alright i hope. As well as helping the community, me (RyanFlashfire) and my mate (LethalDarkness4) hope to use this forum, with hopeful help from Reminance (not sure about that yet tbh) , to involve us with the community more and help us feel like we are doing something to help the game and the people who play it.
Thank you my doods (tbh)We know what you are thinking, why the fuck do we keep saying tbh? To that we say, it sounds like you are triggered lbh.
