Special flags for high karma wouldnt make much sense. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Special flags for high karma wouldnt make much sense. Imho the devs said in some Q&A that they are thinking about implementing some sort of reward for players with high karma, sry, I cannot find the quote atm. And even if some people report you just for playing well, it's still possible to have 100+ Karma without any "rigging".... ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[SLOTH] txtspeak Players 3,041 posts 5,653 battles Report post #107 Posted March 13, 2016 What's karma? the abitrary number relating to how many times you've been complemented - the number of times you've been reported. I say arbitrary because often times you get reported for being too good at the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think that was possible when this was introduced, but not anmore for a while now. Now if they just removed ability to report player who sinked you. Also sinked player's division should be included in that. It's way too easy to loose couple karma points if you sink someone in division. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't rage / insult your team mates if they fail to play their ships properly, tell them politely what they should have done instead. this doesnt work at all..... you can tell people whats good and whats bad - some agree but most of the time they dont rate - or they telly you that youre a idiot for telling them responding with some crap and sometime rate you negative i think the karma system is kind of broken when it was new i constantly climed in karma for playing good/beinng helfull now i decline for beeing "dumb" and a "cheater" leading me to belive that people who cared stoped caring and do not rate any more and Karma beeing simply a tool for people to let their rage flow "report him him and him and him cause cheats and im the only pro" there should be a small reward for rating like for ever 20 ratings (has to be atleast as many good as bad) you get 5 random flags or so And even if some people report you just for playing well, it's still possible to have 100+ Karma without any "rigging".... ;) I dont want to diminish your accomplishment im sure youre good and a verry nice person but having a name thats recognized by some really does help like every streamer and "publicly known player" has a higher karma than the same guy with no "PR" Edited March 15, 2016 by Gojuadorai Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trigger_Happy_Dad Beta Tester 6,753 posts 7,907 battles Report post #118 Posted March 15, 2016 Not many players visit the forum and not a lot of players watch my YT videos... If a player isn't active at all in the forum or on YT he / she would have a better chance of having a high karma by: - playing for the objectives [play for victory not for sinking some lonely enemy on map edge]; - supporting the team; - being friendly in chat; At least I hope that's how it works! ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[NWP] Gojuadorai Players 2,832 posts 21,712 battles Report post #119 Posted March 15, 2016 At least I hope that's how it works! ;) well i hope that too but as i expressed i belive that would only work if every player rated good and bad situations alike. i myself try to froce me rating as much good things as i report bad things but i highly doubt thats what the average player does Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[NWP] Gojuadorai Players 2,832 posts 21,712 battles Report post #121 Posted March 15, 2016 intresting information fom the other thread: Q. [Long question, semi rant, about losing karma] A. Currently, report "plays poorly" doesn't affect karma. It's only used for collecting data. so all my lost karma is due to bot reports and misbehaviour in chat .... thats even more intresting i dont know what im more sure about not beeing a bot or not verbaly abusing someone. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe WG should really give us some special missions like: "Earn 10 karma points and win 100 Doublons!" or something like that to convince more players that teamwork and being "nice" is better for everybody's gaming experience? ;) .

Trigger_Happy_Dad Beta Tester 6,753 posts 7,907 battles Report post #124 Posted March 15, 2016 (edited) Btw, I have a habit to check the mission first when the game is loading, think about the best simple tactic, ALT + Tab to desktop, pick a suitable text-line for the mission from my "work together" list: General Work together guys - good luck! Arbeitet zusammen Leute - viel Glück! _______________________________________________________________ Please first Focus fire at enemy DDs, cruisers and low HP targets! ;) _______________________________________________________________ Primary targets for focus-fire: enemy DDs, low HP ships, cruisers, enemies in Cap. _______________________________________________________________ Standard Battle Please keep an eye on map so they don’t cap while we are all busy elsewhere ;) _______________________________________________________________ Please keep an eye on map and don’t let the middle open so they don’t cap while we are all busy elsewhere ;) _______________________________________________________________ Not all slow BBs to map edge without DD support, please help in the middle first! Domination – 3 Cap Zones We have more ships near A and B, so A + B first :-) ? If we take and hold A + B we win by (cap-) points, easier to do so if we work together :-) _______________________________________________________________ We have more DDs near A and B, so A + B first :-) ? _______________________________________________________________ If we take and hold A + B we win by (cap-) points, easier to do so if we work together :-) DDs, please don’t go hunting ships on map edge while we lose all cap points! _______________________________________________________________ We have more ships near B and C, so B + C first :-) ? If we take and hold B + C we win by (cap-) points, easier to do so if we work together :-) _______________________________________________________________ We have more DDs near B and C, so B + C first :-) ? If we take and hold B + C we win by (cap-) points, easier to do so if we work together :-) TRAP Work together guys - good luck! Let hem have A, and we take and hold B + C? :-) __________________________________________________________________________ Domination – 4 Cap Zones DDs, please don’t go hunting ships on map edge while we lose all cap points! _______________________________________________________________ B + C first? A + D first? … Please not all to map edge, support middle first :-) BBs, please don’t go hunting ships on map edge while we lose all cap points! _______________________________________________________________ Zone Work together guys - good luck! We need to have some ships in the zone, else they can cap in 60 seconds. __________________________________________________________________________ This enemy ship is keeping them ingame, destroy it and we cap in 60 seconds. __________________________________________________________________________ http://forum.worldofwarships.eu/index.php?/topic/46213-teamwork-anleitung-fuer-saemtliche-karten/ so I copy for example this from the list: We have more ships near B and C, so B + C first :-) ? If we take and hold B + C we win by (cap-) points, easier to do so if we work together :-) Alt + Tab back to game + paste the text to the chat with CTRL + V. Then I ping on B + C + primary targets, sail there and hope the team listens! ;) I have the list so I don't have to write the same stuff over and over again, sometimes it helps! ;) I can always Alt + Tab back to desktop to add more text if needed....or just write something in chat.

Yesterday MM gave me such amazing teams all day, that I could not keep my mouth shut... Have you tried switching to DDs? In them you don't have so much time to write into chat or you're not doing everything you can to help team. If you teamkill someone, you usually deserve the loss of karma. So your hobby is teamkilling or why did you bring it up? I've myself had probably about 5 accidental teamkills in 3500 matches. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
