I realize there is no word as of yet regarding rented servers (especially on console), and this has been brought up more than once. Would like to see a server ranking system for rented servers. It would have to be server side as to prevent abuse by the trolls.

Something that would track the “stats” of a server itself showing: up time, peak times, bans, loss by avg tickets, etc. to help players determine if they joined a good server or a server with badmins.

I like this. Should also add the OPM stat that was brought up in another thread.

Rental servers definitely need a huge upgrade.

Definitely. Console servers should have the same options as PC. But this is more of a way to determine a “good” server from a “bad” one. If you see that a server has a stat showing a win is usually in the 500 tickets margin, then you would see the server is horribly balanced. If you see the server has a low number for bans, it would typically indicate the server owner isn’t a “badmin”.

My idea has always been to give an option for players to “upvote” or “+rep” a server. That way you’d know it’s not as likely to be ruled by those “badmins” if a particular server has a good amount of these upvotes. Maybe a single server favorite by a player could even count as one of these upvotes.

Keeping track of the number of players who have favorited a server sounds like it would work as well. When it comes to reporting a server or anything negative about a server, it opens the door for any type of abuse by trolls etc.

I agree with this. A simple track of favorites for the server will hep show which ones are good. However adding a negative option will be abused. It’s inevitable.

I would say an unlimited ban list too.

The problem with any voting system is that it can easily be abused - up or down!

True. Unless there was a way to keep it on the server side and out of the players hands. That way, a player can look a specific server up and see its stats. Then, the player has an idea of what type of server is being ran by the owner and its admins. I don’t think it would be too difficult to at least include this in battlelog somehow.
