The poll IS broken - the options are far too limited.

Where's the option to remove the opt out entirely?


Don't take away my only hope to get kicked out of my PvP band!

(No offense level 50s-90s but you're not as much fun as 250s-270s.)


I'd be fine with an option to opt out of a pvp ladder. Just not to be able to opt out of PvP.

And reserve stam is NOT added :)


I got mine.


ops... sorry... it took a while but it arrived :)

Anyway Hoof, it would be nice if when voting we could write a few lines with the vote... you might get a better feedback (limit the lenght of the comment so you wont be flooded by comments)

This vote is rigged. No matter how you vote it shows 100% YES

So Hoof is this your none to subtle way of telling us something?

This is great except i'm guessing some people won't take the voting too seriously and just vote anything for the reserve stam. Just my opinion anyways.

Would that mean only being subjected to the -/+ 5 or 10 level difference attacks?

Hmmm... guess I'm too late to say that they're probably shouldn't be a Protect..... since the old post has been locked... nuts.

I like the idea of in-game polls.

However, I'm strongly against giving out the Reserve stam for it.... that's not going to get an "informed" opinion... but I guess that's what voting is all about anyway....

Here's how I see the current poll situation:

Do you think the PvP Protection upgrade should be changed so it only prevents XP loss in PvP?

Answer: who cares? I'll just vote whatever and get my 25 Reserve stam... whoopie!!! errr... yeah.

In short, a poll is only as good as the poll maker... I'd suggest a few more options... though... I suppose the decision that has been made only allows for a yes/no answer. None the less and at the very least, I'd suggest the option of a "don't know/don't care" possibility... that's how any poll works... It'd cut down on the "silly" answers... heck... I'd choose it every time... ,oP

Prosperous smacking everybody (o0

There's nothing to help educate the players on the ramifications on voting one way or the other? As with a lot of your polls one option can look good at first, but with further thought and interaction with other players thoughts that can be shown false. When it's something with major game changing outcomes such as this, i see this system as a bad idea.

Then we are in agreement.

I agree- would be nice to be able make a short comment, one time, when you vote. To qualify your answer when it is such a forced choice question. Perhaps it goes into a new thread that just holds those comments.
And it might be nice to put links to relevant forum threads below the poll question as well.

<----- Yes the PvP Protection shouldn't protect anything more than someone's xp which is how the xp lock was designed to be originally for players who wanted to lock it... I voted yes it needs to be changed to how it was and use to be.

I didn't get any stam either, but right now I feel that is the least of everything. I also feel it's still too soon to say whether or not the ladder is good or not or what issues there could be with it as this system is still rather new. So far I like it, but time will tell.

An the system says there is a 100% vote which I'm sure is incorrect ... so that will need further tweaking as well.

Yes.


I think then a poll on this would gain the support of most levelers :)

(It would also be a better revenue stream for the cows than an uber expensive 'protection' upgrade)

Hoof lets resume.
1. The poll is obviously broken.
2. The options aren't clearing up the whole siutation at hand.
3. It's exploitable by people with no interest on the subject, who will screw up the results only to get the stam.

I agree with the post earlier (forgot to go back to quote it). The poll will be overly flawed since there is additional information to the question. Hoof you did say the cost would be lowered if it only protected XP and rating. This could throw a lot of those "no" votes to "yes" votes.

Also, what about a third option of "Remove it entirely because HCS said this would never be implemented"

Just my 2 cents on the 2nd point, but the first point is entirely valid.
