Mod v.s. Player Challenge

As the title states, this idea is for a Mod v.s. Player Challenge.

Yeah, we get occasional PvM events, well some servers do >_>

And not all of us get to enjoy this. So why not upgrade a bit, make a Mod v.s. Players Challenge option.

Don't like the way a mod treated you, even if it was in their right? Well challenge them!

With this idea, you send a Challenge Invite to said mod using chat.

/Challenge Seraph (And your reason for said challenge) "Bring it Seraph"

If the Mod accepts, which I expect Seraph wouldn't back down Both players will be teleported to a single map, similar to the JPA, and there they can fight.

To make it more exciting, the winner will be announced like how Prime Time, or MHH, or a CBS being Destroyed is...

º¤»ĐЯΣΔΜ◊†◊ÐΣМΦИ«¤º Has Defeated Seraph In A Mod v.s. Player Challenge!​

There will be no reward for defeating them as this is not an event, just a fun little challenge.

Let me know what you all think, and if improvements are need please feel free to say so and I will update it!

It sounds fun, but realistically how often are mods going to have the time and actually want to do it? I don't know if they would enjoy losing all the time

Plus, whilst our team is pretty sound, do people trust the other teams enough to actually use a fair ship and not one that is enhanced beyond the normal capabilities by acp? Other teams have different views on what they are allowed to do with their tools and how they work within DO, they might see no issue in using them to win.

Why limit it to just mods, make it server wide to any player you wish. 1v1 systems have been developed on private servers by people in their own time so it shouldn't be a problem to replicate it.

 

Sounds fine, but I never get to face the mods since my server can't have it, so I thought ide make this, I believe a ton of player vs player ideas were made already though, but not well thought out, just wasn't going to steal the idea.

 

Sounds quite good, i like it
if the person was the same company as you, would you lose honor should you win?

 

No, it would be the same thing as JPA you gain positive points.

 

I'd love to partake in PvM events, but as Okapi says, many teams have different ways they can use their acp... if we could get all teams and players to agree on something then a big PvM event on its own server would be pretty awesome.

 

Hi Dreamdemon.

I rather like this idea but for the point mentioned regarding different teams rules on Mods engaging players. Also we have to take into account that we normally have our admin ship set up for testing problems and lets be honest here. You would be shooting my police ship for quite some time before I get bored and either 1 shot you or just switch config and fly away so for me to accept a challenge I would have to log in and set up a ship you would have a chance of competing with.

*BRAINWAVE* We could have a PvP ship in a spare hanger just for challenges .

It would still mean having to have a PvP ship setup on every server and I doubt if any of us do. Some of us dont even have admin police ships on every server much less a PvP setup goliath.

There is also the point of us being busy when we are working on chat tool and if the mod you are challenging is the only one working then leaving chat to give you a spanking in the map is not an option. It would have to wait for a time that is convenient to both parties.

Flesh this idea out a little more and I would be happy to pass it along as a suggestion.

 

i would like it to be implemented agaisnt other players, normal pvp to be honest.
WIth moderators probably will be more flaming on chats and arguing even more with them lool. I have no reason to fight them cos i know they have a better ship

 

!!~UPDATE~!!​

Looking over what Harely D said, i didn't think about them being in their police ships.

Yeah maybe each admin should have a regular ship for PvP within another hanger, and can only be used for the Challenges, which they can keep track if used other wise.

As for if the mod is busy, i understand that too, some mods come to GA1 for about 20 or so minutes and chat with us, while enforcing the rules, and some stop by then move on to check the other chats like Juturna.

So we could still send the invite, but if the Admin is busy, then they can just tell us in chat, and come back later if they have time, like i said in first post they don't have to.

Anyone else have anything we should add to this? To improve on what Harely D mentioned?

And plaku, as I told okapi, since there are already ideas for this, plus, people just do simple 1v1's in the maps, and we can not simply 1v1 a Mod, i made this idea.

 

unless there is some sort of window that show's that the admin is online and ready to fight( like the clan visibility window)

 

There really should be something showing admins are online, but that would need to be an idea made in a new thread since this is a slightly different topic..

 

I think this would be extremely difficult to implement. With all of the other responsibilities that Admins have within the Team, free time is a rare luxury. Logging on each day to see "You have (27) challenges pending" would just detract from us performing the roles that we have been assigned. I do find the idea quite intriguing, so I have nothing against what you have actually suggested, I just do not think that it would be feasible for us to accomplish at the moment.

That being said, we could always attempt something of a more 1v1 based PvM event instead of our usual server invasion. Mix it up a little.
Good idea though - we will keep working on it.


P.S. You have a typo in your first post. It should read:
"=Seraph= has defeated º¤»ĐЯΣΔΜ◊†◊ÐΣМΦИ«¤º In A Mod v.s. Player Challenge!"

 

Well when challenging a Mod, it would only work if they are online. So say you are having a conversation with one, and they have free time, challenge them to a 1v1 with the idea i presented in the first post. Nothing with be put on hold and no one can send a challenge to a Mod who is offline.

I like your idea of maybe just a 1v1 event, would be fun to show you there was no type

 

How about in this new box you suggest where it shows admins are online, how about the mods can choose when they're online and when they're not and they can only receive requests when they're online, for instance if a mod is modding chat then they won't be online and can't receive pending challenges, but if they have this luxury of free time then they place themselves online for that time and can only receive challenges during this time.
