Open World Boosting

[Brighteous]

Keep hardcore HARDCORE! No boosting for people using challenges! I'm not impressed by your guild or your alts if they're all boosted. Play the game!

It is very unclear what are we voting for?
apparently recently the boosting rules have been reverted, meaning ppl are allowed to use lvl 60 charracters to rush thru quests and boost their alts like that.
So if we are voting "leave it as it is" are we actually voting for that, or are we voting for no boosts at all?

[Brighteous]

Finally trying to backup the claims about the majority being in favour of this change huh?

This early majority has no representation of the true server community's feelings. These are just the people who peruse the forums- who are more likely to be cynical elitists in progression guilds. Don't get cocky. Get people to come vote!

As a leveler, whatever boosting is has not impacted my experience in the game. I loved turtle wow and I don't feel we need to be changing anything like this as I don't think it impacts me as the leveler. I think you should focus on those that are griefing others or doing actual RMT, but I support people playing the game how they want as long as it doesn't hurt others.

I don't trust Brighteous's campaign against this - it seems weird and I urge the voter to leave things as they are to keep things as close to Turtle's original design. Thanks.

Most poorly worded poll ever.

[Xiv96]

Americans literally cannot accept that a majority disagrees with them.

Ofcourse the poll is skewed, as my opinion is the only one that matters!

Clown attitude.

You don't think people in favor of boosting are more likely to have multiple accounts?

Not to a measurable degree, no. You can cope however you like but the reality is that most people either want you to be able to self-boost or they simply do not care.

Self-boosting requires multiple accounts, right?

And each account gets one vote, right?

If that's the case, then players who self-boost can cast multiple votes, while also directly benefitting from the outcome of the poll.

Do you believe most peoples votes are at least partly influenced by self-interest?

If so, wouldn't it be reasonable to believe that a poll like this could be skewed?

Again, not to a measurable or substantial degree, NA brain.

What makes you believe it would not be substantial?

Because you have no credible proof pointing towards it being substantial.

And I'm sure the devs would invalidate the poll should a substantial part of the result be manipulated by votes originating from the same IPs, along with proof of said events - ofcourse.

The burden of proof ultimately is on you for making these claims and not on me to disprove your hearsay.
