Raising the TTT Karma Cap

[mary]

Raise the TTT Karma Cap significantly or remove it altogether and let us grind to go as high as we can please. This will give incentive for us to be more careful in who we kill, it isn't hard to stay at 110 but it could be hard to stay at 250 or higher, etc.

We would have to implement a system that punishes players for losing too much karma in a certain period of time, however, as this would give players 195 karma to play with before recieving the rdm ban.

Hmm, I always thought having higher karma would be a good idea. But then I remember what the point of the karma system is, to ban players based of their karma, and for admin's to see who's been RDM'ing before we joined the server (if a regular has low karma, we know something's up...). The 110 karma is good for that. Having higher karma will only require more coding for tech to catch low karma people, as well as regulars that start a rdm spree. So I don't think the benefit of showing of your high karma outweighs the functional aspect of the system we have right now.

-1 for me.

-1 From me. I believe karma works in the way that per 20 damage you do to a person on your own team, you lose 1 karma. Very simple coding, and I think it should stay where it is.

it all boils down to that there is no need for it :/
an honest player shouldnt dip past 100, and in the case that they do, they can just get it back up.

and what if a player decides after playing for a while, that he wants to turn on some sort of ragebot while theres no admins on, higher karma would just mean that they can spin for longer.

because of those two main reasons i think it should stay where it is. -1

-1 here but its just bad i have thought of it too, but then i have to figure out what the new low karma system will be, and it will just stress some more

The point of it isn’t to really reward players who are good, but instead punish players who break rules. There’s no real reason to raise the karma level unless you want bragging rights, but the actual system is much more useful with the cap being so low.

Ya when TTT was being updated me and Custom talked about this. The cool part would be to see who has the highest karma and such but we came to the conclusion to keep karma how it is. I am all for having stats on TTT though and hopefully some day. There?s a saying if it ain?t broke don?t fix it

respecc homie

At this time, we are wanting the karma system to stay how it is, as currently it gets rid of troublesome players. In the future we would like to have a stats page, but have no plans on making karma any different. Thanks for the suggestion~
