Ok so I noticed that a few minor problems have been going on in the community and somehow the committe gets pointed at as the root of everything evil and unpure in this world... Oh, and also the root of the problem.
So I decided I would come up with some ideas that may help this game become what we all want: A game were there are no sides, no one breaks the rules and there are no personal attacks. I'll refer to this perfect scenario as dptopia.
Idea number 1
Alright so we all know that the committe members have been taking sides lately. I mean, they always side with the people that dont break the rules! How fair is that!? That's no way to reach dptopia. So thats why I came up with this idea: Kill all the committe members. It wouldnt have to be anything fancy, just a quick stab in the heart and we're set. That would certainly teach those bastards to stop taking sides.
Of course we would have to replace them after we kill them, and after that, kill the new members. But hey, at least we'll stop the side taking since they will be a little busy bleeding out to vote on anything, creating the illusion that they are totally neutral. That is what we want after all, isnt it?
Idea number 2
So if you didnt liked the last idea here's another one: Introduce a set of rules that everyone has to obey no matter what. I really like this idea because it gives the game a religious feel, 10 amendments style. Here's a rough draft of what the rules could be:
Rule number 1 - Say anything that the committe doesnt like and you are permabanned.
Rule number 2 - You shall not play against a committe member and win.
Rule number 3 - You shall not hack, unless you have really really really really really good excuse to doing so.
Rule number 5 - Asking about rule number 4 will get you permabanned.
Rule number 6 - Making a box map will get you permabanned.
And for the sake of going with the religious feel I decided I would create a prayer, everyone would have to chant it before a match and such, otherwise you'd be dammed to eternal suffering in hell... err, I mean permabanned:
Committe who's totally sideless.
Bless your decisions and make them efective in earth as it is in heaven,
Give us this day our daily ban, and dont forgive no matter how much we nag.
Lead us not into temptation, for the ban is long.
But deliver us from hacks, amen.
Idea number 3
Lately I've noticed that dp is very unbalanced. I mean, some clans have more wins than others, some people play more dp than others, etc. Thats why I came up with this idea. My main objective here would be to remove everything unbalanced about the game and its community, and I present it in point form:
* Everyone will always show the same post count in the forums, no matter what. Also, everyone is only allowed to a max of 1 post per day.
* You will only be able to play DP for a maximum of 3 hours per day.
* On those 3 hours of the day, your resources will be limited to 300 paintballs, 2 CO2's and everyone will have to play with the same gun.
* On matches... Actually, forget about matches, every clan will display the same Win to Death ratio in their clan channel.
* You may only have 1 map in DP, and everyone will have the same one (I havent decided which one yet, blitz came to my mind because its a nice, even, and simetrical map)
DP + communism = dptopia for sure.
Idea number 4
This is probably the best idea I had so far, I say that we replace all the committe members with bunnies, they are just so cute that people wont be able to disagree with them. We'll probably have a hard time teaching a few bunnies to play dp (BECAUSE WE KNOW THAT IS A MUST IF YOU WANT TO BE IN THE COMMITTE!"), how to use the forums and how to permaban someone. But trust me, it will all be worth it in the end.
So those are my ideas. What do you guys think?
