is it really ok to DM like this - Lash - 05-04-2020

Any rules regarding this type of behavior. This person is completely aware of whats happening and that the problem is on their end. Yet they engage in DM constantly. 
Just look at this

Its actually funny. I don't necessarily expect anything to be taken into action. Just want to know if I can report this in-game and the player at least gets a warning to chill.

Hello LVP! Good to see u back.

Should we have some sort of warning or visual indicator if a player has particularly high ping?


RE: is it really ok to DM like this - Lash - 05-04-2020

I hope you understand I dont mean high ping as in 250 which is stable and doesnt spike up to 500-700 once every 5 seconds. If its a stable 250 thats hopping from 240 to 260 I understand thats not a connectivity issue. But if it is spiking to an abnormal number just let the player know thats its not a fun experience when they ignore it because they maybe dont understand how it affects the other side. After all DM is the primary focus for most regulars.

I do enjoy the idea of a high ping visual indicator / way to prevent them causing DM issues. Perhaps transition complaint to development to discuss the possible solutions for such players?

Good call. Let's see what players have to say about this.
Moved to Development.
