A suggestion for a separate Teamspeak room for each battle rating, for Air Arcade

[Jeffers_Boyd]

Issue: Players are not adding their battle rating (BR) to their nicknames.

Solution: Create a TeamSpeak room for each Air Arcade battle rating.

For example:

BR 1
Reserve
1.0
1.3
1.7
BR 2
2.0
2.3
2.7
BR 3
3.0
3.3
3.7
BR 4
4.0
4.3
4.7
BR 5
5.0
5.3
5.7
BR 6
6.0
6.3
6.7
etc.


At the Saturday meeting, players were asked to append their battle rating to their TeamSpeak nickname,
but on Sunday most players (including officers) were not doing it.

Since it is understandably too much trouble for most players,
let's make things easier by having a room for each battle rating,
so players can simply enter the room that matches their battle rating.
This will also save having to type, which some of us do not like .

Separate BR rooms will let more people be on TeamSpeak and playing Air Arcade at the same time,
which seems like a good thing.

Separate BR rooms will also make things less intimidating for new low tier players, since they will have their own rooms.
So now a new low tier player can comfortably join AOD and easily find others playing at his level.
This may help keep players active in AOD.


Thanks

We are a inclusive clan. The separation of rooms vs BR not only defeats that purpose,but in fact makes it harder on the officers to have to "Police' where people play vis a vis/Battle rating. If it becomes a huge issue,which it hasn't of late, We should look at it then.

if You're too lazy to type,then perhaps seated video games aren't Your cup of tea....Seriously. We have/can work this out w/out further reconstruction to TS3.

I am not sure if its just me or everyone else but when ever I join a channel the first thing to come out of my mouth is to ask which BR we are flying or tanking.

As far as I know we are only allowed to have a certain amount of TS room
we can't make a room for every BR really
because then we would have to do it for AB / RB / and SIM aswell

Typing the BR your doing behind your name is not mandatory its just a helpfull tool to other players coming in the room
and like Cadimus said the first thing most members do when they enter a room is asking "what you guys doin"

Thank you for the suggestion. While I see your reasoning, we will be keeping the rooms as they are at the moment. The two main reasons are 1) we dont want to be making rooms where the new guys hang out thats different from the veterans- mixing it up is very good and 2) we do limit the number of rooms per division so that we do not have just 1-2 people applicable for channel and a lot of scrolling for everyone

I apologize for the intrusion :) I had a conversation with Jeffers about this tonight and put forth a couple of my ideas. This is what he came up with in his own teamspeak to hopefully be applied to AOD's if it works.
