#Lock Croesus public lobbies from praying until after the first fungus ends to alleviate trolling

I get not wanting to open the can of worms of having to review evidence of people trolling, and having to differentiate between "playstyle vs griefing". It also puts a lot more work onto support where they're now having to dig through reports when a new player messes up. I get it, we don't need that.

What should happen though is changing how the boss works specifically in public lobbies, or potentially just all lobbies (but my guess is speedrunners won't like that). There's no reason at all why a public lobby needs to pray before the first set of fungus are dealt with, and I think this makes the perfect opportunity to lock praying at statues until that is over. The second beneficial part of this is that it also helps solve a bug that griefers will abuse, where praying on the final tick of fungus will completely bug out the boss, where middle will close instantly and causing a guaranteed wipe.

why not just have a vote to kick option in public lobbies of all bosses?

#

for example: a drop down menu with the players names in the lobby with an option to kick them and if more than 50% vote to kick. They get kicked then suspended from that public instance for a certain amount of time

#

or you can just report the player for disruptive behavior

A votekick option would just be used to further greif the playerbase.

I've reported the same guy every morning for the last four weeks. Nothing has happened. He throws 40+ games in a row in lobbies with 30+ people, claiming that somebody did x thing and until they stop, he will keep doing it. If people aren't going to get in trouble for this, even when they admit that they're doing it on purpose, then there needs to be measures in the game itself to stop it.

#

I'd love to see why people are disagreeing otherwise, because I don't see how you can disagree with the fact that people shouldn't be able to disrupt dozens of other people for hours straight so easily.

They need to park a Jmod account in that lobby. Doesn't need to be actively monitored, just able to look in every so often when somene's on break to check if fuckery is afoot.

Similar for w84/2 in the usual spots.

This is a good suggestion. There is no good reason to pray before the first fungus, and even if they are spam praying right after if everyone works together the griefing will be essentially useless.

In addition, there should be "personal enrage" if personal enrage exceeds a certain amount of the enrage of the kill they should be force put in the safe area and put on cd from joining the croesus kill.

Such measures would kill griefing immeadiately

Would benefit by adding the message "It is too soon to pray at this statue" and at 2:30 enable the ability to pray.
