[...] Hah, sorry skyride, but it really isn't that simple. You can be a hero in the community all you want, and I know you know your stuff when it comes to programming, but you do not know the etf2l code and you cannot possibly judge this. If you were to receive the plugin in a zip file, the only thing you're going to manage in the first 20 minutes is develop a headache. You're not even going to find the code that needs changing/replacing.

The Recruitment section cannot be extended without a complete rewrite. It's not a matter of "just adding a checkbox". I'm happy to say that this rewrite is pretty high on our priority list, though. It's just a pretty mean amount of work to do in one's free time.]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=general&topic=24639&post=436990 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 15:17:33 +0100 Reply by Black_Bob https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/general/topic-24639/page-1/?recent=437025#post=436989 Quoted from rviens
[...] For new players, sure, you can consider writing down your game time, etc. but how come 6v6 new players don't have that problem? Every time I check a division 6 post I can see information clearly listed. For example listing things that actually matter in the game, like how often can the person play, is the person open to criticism and listing your experience (doesn't matter how little of it) in 6v6, like lobbies and so on. Why can't the highlander players just list the same things? There are plenty of highlander lobbies, pugs (well, not plenty) where you can test your skills as a certain class and ask for people's opinions.
There has been 14 seasons of 6 vs 6 and the skill levels are very clearly defined now, there has only been 3 seasons of etf2l highlander over a very long spread out period of time. There are also two very separate communities competing in the same league in highlander, there are the grass root highlander teams who only play 9 vs 9 every evening in a small pool of teams and players who have established their own view of skill levels, there is also etf2l's home grown 6 vs 6 players who are having a go at highlander and assume their div should just carry across to highlander. Until highlander establishes itself and gets played more by a wider base of players only then will the skill levels stabilize and people will be able to make accurate recruitment posts. But until then there will still be people taking wild guess as to what skill level they are, look at ugc http://www.ugcleague.com/rankings_tf2h_all.cfm and you will see how even with massive groups it is very hard to separate skill levels except for a few at the top and bottom of each group.]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=general&topic=24639&post=436989 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 15:14:20 +0100 Reply by quintosh https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/general/topic-24639/page-1/?recent=437025#post=436972 Quoted from SorroW
a bit off-topic maybe, but ETF2L should have a seperate section for highlander recruitment and 6v6 recruitment, or at least put a filter for 6v6/9v9

the fact that he merced for/against prem teams]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=general&topic=24639&post=436972 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 13:59:21 +0100 Reply by rviens https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/general/topic-24639/page-1/?recent=437025#post=436965 Quoted from Spike Himself
[...] I think the part of that recruitment that needs fixing more so than listing one's amount of hours played is the sudden jump from Div 3 to Prem.

There are plenty of highlander lobbies, pugs (well, not plenty) where you can test your skills as a certain class and ask for people's opinions. My point is, that just because you played the game for a long time doesn't mean you are good at it. That's like counter-strike, if I were to count all the hours I played non-steam counter-strike in internet cafes and when I was younger, I would be considered a professional. How long you have played is not a factor into which a forming team should look into, when searching for a gamer.]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=general&topic=24639&post=436965 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 13:24:50 +0100
