Thoughts on new RGL ping guidelines?
in
TF2 General Discussion
meanwhile in etf2l there is not a single restriction or rule and it's free, maybe you SA guys should go there instead LOL
(but thanks for the sign-up money, amigos)
it really is just racism when you allow 250 ping hawaiians but won't allow argentines. guess you gotta get conquered and annexed first by the USA before you are deemed worthy for an USA-based based admin (and aren't puerto rican) and the poll taken just proves that the USA has a racist problem which the rest of the world already knows )))

this also bans any potential europeans ever. Very based Racist Gaming League kicking out all the foreigners!
rgl[1005.2] - Region has been reverted to the previous iteration of this rule where each region now has a maximum capacity of non-region players per format. For the North America region, the cap is three non-NA players for Highlander, two for Sixes, and two for Prolander.
Starting in the year 2021, RGL had updated the region rule to a latency-based system where teams have a maximum capacity of a third of the roster having connections exceeding 150 ping to the league's default region central server. After two seasons, this has given us new findings regarding this rule that was not initially anticipated, which will be covered here.
Anti-cheat
Specifically, with anti-cheat, the current rule has contributed to an increase of cheating and alting cases to the league. With the current RGL leagues operating in North America, the increase in cases from non-regions created a bigger backlog for the volunteer staff to handle. With non-region players not having much of a background or experience, this also made it difficult to handle alting cases which affected the integrity of the league primarily in our lower divisions. Additionally, in other regions where documentation is fuzzy, it became difficult for mirrored cheating bans to be placed due to unclear evidence or practices in these regions.
Enforcement
Enforcement of the 150-ping rule also proved to be inconsistent. Fundamentally, ping as a metric is difficult to enforce and not a consistent metric, especially after the season starts. There were many situations where players near the 150 ping cap would sometimes be okay, and then other days where they were not.
Below contains a major point from a 2020 article discussing the region rule. They will be reiterated here due to the pronounced issues that were brought up by division administrators:For players participating in our league, you may know that we have an "Admin Placement" division. This is for players who are above Open but might not be ready for Invite. This is a placeholder for the Intermediate, Main, and Advanced divisions. Instead of teams selecting their own divisions, teams will register, and admins will review their roster strength, logs, and other factors to determine what division they should be placed into. The issue lies with players participating in regions, such as Europe or South America. Cross-experience becomes blurry, for example, where to particularly place players with SA UGC experience, as there is only one division that exists in that particular region. The possibility of placing a top player from South America or a player that may have a lot of experience from competitions in that region into a wrong division in RGL NA becomes a possibility. This is further pronounced by the past history of teams that intentionally sandbag by taking advantage of the lack of familiarity of player skill from other regions.
where is this new ping guideline OP spoke off on the rgl site?

AmaterasuRahmedActually I thought anonymity meant something else, what I really mean is just making it more comfortable and accessible to play in a less toxic environmentMaking it a big deal with a "women-only team" cup is the thing that will attract trolls and idiots alike, good luck and have fun moderating that Twitch chat.
