-- UI can be swapped to have a text field first on the Login form, which reacts to enter.
-- Buttons dont react to enter on Mac, I think they do on Windows. I will check up on this
... If they do, I can change the UI for the Connect form too to make this possible on Windows

* (Documentation) Chat API Samples
* (Client) Make RGC Installer (!!!)

* (BUG) Some hostbots don't deliver the game information properly after disconnecting and reconnecting to the manager. Very very rare bug, I haven't found any evidence in the logs yet as to how this happens. Only 5 games affected by this so far our of 30k hosted since the feature introduction.

* User-swapping in game lobby for normal users
* Auto-balancing games according to player points
** Putting the "best" player ingame to the blue slot
*** Maybe give him game master abilities? (!latency, !synclimit)
** Making the two "best" players captain in cm games

[Ragnesis]

This looks great!

One suggestion - you should try to get sc2 support, would bring a LOT of players i guess. Of coarse, if sc2 supports LAN,

[Cnacnel]

My importance ranks: 1 - most important, 2 - less important, 3 - least important, ? - unknown
My comments - blue font

Just make a post if you want to suggest something. This is sort of my personal todo list at the moment.
All green entries were coded and will be implemented in the next patch.

Done
* (Client) Make /whois identify games

Todo List
1* Website for RGC - very much needed for RGC to advance.
1** Top Ranked Ladder - website needed for that
3** Forum signature with RGC stats - like HoN's? http://honarmory.com/hon-sig-creator...ure-generator/
3*** Customizable background - for the future
3*** Maybe customizable signature in the future (text position etc...) - where would they be?
1** Playerstats and Games History - good, link to games history in profile.
?** Social stuff - what do you mean by that?
?*** See who's online and where - what do you mean?
?** Forums (!)- which is?
3*** I want to link channels to forums, for easier admin management. Admin on channel Dpl will have the forum title "Dpl Admin", with according permissions in his forum. - can't do it manually?
3*** Give the admins some sort of panel to arrange their own forum (Very hard, not for a while) - Is it that hard with vBulletin? Maybe ask someone with good forum knowledge to do it?


?* (Client) Fix Right-click on whispers - what's that?
2* (Client) Extend right-click on userlist functionality - connect this point to "add clan entry.

3* "My Applications" System - for the future.
?** Similar to what Steam does - this, and my applications is the same thing?
2** Stats for playing your various games - we only have DotA now!

1/2* LAN Hosting - how advanced is the system now?
?** Stats system for playerhosted games (probably replay based) - what do you mean by replay based?

2* Matchmaking System
1* Clanwars System - very much needed to gain competitive players.
1** Clanwars Stats

2* Hostbot Obs Slots
2** Obs hosting (sign+host) - is it even possible with the sign system?
3** RGC TV - need to get more pro players, organise more tours


New Games to be supported
3Worms Reloaded - who plays that? How would the players learn about RGC.
?Codename F.R.E.D.


Suggestions
2* (Client) Userlist right-click, add "clan" entry (add to clan (?) / view clan)
3* (Client) Add sound on private message - spammable, maybe only for the first message.
3* (Client) Add tray icon bling effect on private message
2* (Client) Make the 'Help' window useful somehow - xD
3* (Client) Add all menu buttons to the tray menu - what for?
?* (Client) (BUG) Fix the double games view on promote channel rejoin - can't you just close and open LAN?
?* (Client) Add access checks to the acp - huh?


2* User-swapping in game lobby for normal users - hard to make it usable at pub..
1* Auto-balancing games according to player points
3** Putting the "best" player ingame to the blue slot - need to think of a way for him to resign from it.
X*** Maybe give him game master abilities? (!latency, !synclimit) - don't
3** Making the two "best" players captain in cm games- same as blue slot, wins/losses/dcs don't necessarily describe the best player.

Suggestions:
(client) Add clan chat. I mean to ppl who is in same clan can talk in one window.

Good idea - rank 2

/j clan <name> ?

No, auto-channels give the sense of solidarity and prestige to clan members. Further on, clan channels should be restricted and linked to the rank of clan members (chieftain - head admin, recruiter - voucher, etc.). There should also be auto-vouch on clan joining.

This looks great!

One suggestion - you should try to get sc2 support, would bring a LOT of players i guess. Of coarse, if sc2 supports LAN,

A LOT! However, rank 3.

[Cnacnel]

My suggestions:
- Translation support.
Have you seen how it works for DotA? The same way for RGC would be very good. It can be put into the new RGC website.
- Delete unimportant channels and merge smaller ones into bigger multi-channels
Georgia anyone? o.0
- Groups
They have no use now, maybe with matchmaking system they will, that's why we need it.
- /whois
Change /whois into /status... it's just logical
- Socialize
Connect Facebook profile, RGC profile and forum profile together! x) ^^ (I wouldn't do it though)
- Achievements
You know I'd love to see them sir-rogers
- Tournaments
We need to organize some tours to bring more competitive players and to make gosugamers realize that there is something like RGC.
- Long-time members
Maybe some reward for those who are in roots?
- Ranked Public
!ping ingame, average team rank, !rdy - those were some nice ideas of zemunac's creation.
- Pizza
delivery.
- Ads
Advertise RGC on gosugamers, at DotA loading screen and at forums
- Logs
Just delete them, or compress.. (btw, how was the log that I sent you?)
- Installation
Make it more professional:
a) install on C:/Program Files/ Ranked Gaming Client
b) add terms of use
c) add installation/client language choice
d) add skin choice at installation
e) add uninstall (remove only) which redirects you to the website and asks why have you uninstalled the program
- Patcher
Upgrade patcher's visuals.
- Registration
To stop multies, add email verification.
- Nick
Make changing nicks easier, without the need to create new account, add history of nicks.

Just don't give the "best player" blue/pink slots. Who is the "best player" of a team anyway? We would only end up with carry players as captains, pretty sure of it. And there are also the people who pick good/excellent but aren't that good at the game itself. What about those people? Would you prevent them from enjoying the captain slot "because they suck"?

Imo, just don't do that, wouldn't bring anything positive.

[Cnacnel]

Make "Connect" and "login" buttons react to Enter.

[NeC.madchen]

1. make command !rankall to show ladder position instead of points
2. implement zemunac point system
3. 2 or more types of sign list(e.g. sign list with auto-balanc teams, regular(stack) list)

[Frag(-_-)Artist]

Sorry guys i didnt notice where im posting this so move this post and pardon me for being retarded !

Hello guys,

I have some ideas to make the europe public channel better place for play.

From my experience at least half of the games are ruined!!! by leaver more often by serveral leavers.

I know ... the solution is to make application for dr.com dr.inhouse or DPL but i really have some ideas which will do great results.

- One computer = One account

Since compban does wonders im sure its not so hard to bring this future alive.

For multiple users using same machine create forum section where they can ask for second maybe third account.

For ppls run gaming-house create special certifiaction, i think it would be very easy to determine if there is some fake not running bussines but is chronical gameruiner and leaver

- You leave = You loose a lot of points or have some leaver mark with this mark ppls can votekick you

Just force people somehow they dont want to leave! Like it was in times when you even flame someone you get 1week baned so nobody flames, right?. With 1acc=1comp rule this will works like blast!

- You gameruin on purpose = compban

Runing for 5enemies, tower suicide, roshan suicide etc its very easy to determine from replay if it was intended feeding or not and this can happen very occasional because noones want to be permabaned right?

I know it means europe will be more or less moderated again but its just some minor work on forum which can be done by few new peoples of good will.

What do you guys think?

[Sirian]

mayb add a % based auto-timeban system for leavers.
like:
3-rd leave or dc of the day = autotimeban for 2 days (after 2nd dc give an auto-generated msg on login with a warning)
record dc % and if your dc % gets over 5% of your games played autotimeban for 3-7 days depending on history.

i also think its a good idea that even non-mods can swap in lobby, with a command like -swap 1 (the ones who swap should ofc both agree) just like ingame. and give everyone in the team the ability to vote for a captain if -cd or -cm.

[Zemunac]

We cant use timeban, but i had the same idea for leaver flag, when someone leaves the game, he get leaver flag for 2 weeks, when a leaver enters the game, bot says, play "playername" is a leaver type !votekick to kick him. That should reduce number of leaves by at least 60-70%. And + add email verification for new accounts, that would make it a bit harder to spam creation of new accounts, i mean yea you can create new email easy, but how much times before it bores you.

Suggestions:

Auto-Balance, putting the best player in rank second in the Blue and Rose. (Best player of the same rank in the team's worst player in the rank)

Allow Blue and Pink, Master Skills in the game.

Have for the Channel Bots Clans with the commands. Challange,. Accept,. Sign,. Pickslot (or. Pick nick).

Rank / Ladder for each individual channel RGC!!


.R4T0-

[MiXxS_leo]

!untimeban



Recreate that rank all of the RGC.
http://stats.rankedgaming.com/rgc_st...el.php?search=+ USERNAME!

[.R4T0-]

Place in Profile The Clan in which the player belongs.

!untimeban or !unban

So do a Clan, a channel be created for this.

Communicate with all friends with the commander /F W and write the message.


If possible, make nick in-game stay with the tag when the player should in a clan, as in the live chat.

Ex: my nickname is. R4T0-and get into the Clan [LG], both in my nick chat, how to stay in the game [LG]. R4T0-because the tag was incorporated into my nickname. It would be good to get it.

Hey ,you should try making some kind of system were someone can host a game and set it so that players with points bellow a certain number of points can't join :
-Something like "!host europe1 1550" -> people with less points can't sign/join.

-Another issue is about leavers. Cm mode means that if anyone leaves it would be a serious drawback for the team (since cm mode is popular in europe public), at least people who leave intentionally should be banned and after a number of reports they should be flagged as leavers.
After being flagged as a leaver people often create new accounts and still play BUT if you implement the system where hosted game has a minimum of points needed to join ,people could host games that have >1550 points requirement so that they can avoid playing with beginners and multi-accounting.If this means that more admins/moderators etc are needed i'm sure there are people out there who want to help out.


-This question is somewhat strange .Icefrog said he was working with valve on a new DotA game.
I'm sure that after the release valve will want all dota players that actualy buy that game to play on their platform (steam) ,what will happen with RGC then?

All in all those are some nice news. Keep up the good work

For resulver it would be easier to have another channel separately, where only players with more than 1700 points will win! Vouch this channel.

Note: Create a system to vouch be given automatically.

sure ,that would be great

[.R4T0-]

Urgent.

Set a maximum "10 characters" for an account and "six characters" for a tag

This will prevent visual pollution in the Chat and Game with the Floods.

I hope this can be done sooner.

[NeC.madchen]

Auto-rmk if somone drop before the 7th(more or less?) min.

[.R4T0-]

Making games created as follows: BOT CM-1 / CM-2 l / CM-3 and so on.

This would facilitate finding a friend and especially to identify the game in which the player is being punished. Ex: XXX was banned for the game fall in BOT CM-200.

Hope you like the idea.

There is already game id(GID).
