Oh, nono, ignoring people is like 90% of what I do in online games these days 8D It is too bad, but I have friends to bring along.
Wouldn't a review system make it possible for someone to get into a big group/guild/clan that wants to have everyone at the upper tier, so they all give each other good reviews all the time even if they're all idiots?
I've kind of entertained fantasies of games where, instead of towns being minded by high-level NPCs that attack characters with the PK label, players would be required to take turns being guards or reviewing character demotions or promotions etc. There'd have to be people paid to manage the game at the top, but maybe they could also charge less for a subscription for people who behaved better? That's really REALLY not equal (GO ME), and from here it sounds really great. I get what you mean.
It's funny, because I have enough of an appetite for RO grinding to stay on a low-rate server until I got a Sage to level 96, and I'm still playing! But I don't want to pay for it. I think if I paid for it I'd want to actually have the character I paid real money for and then I could choose whether or not I played with it etc.
