Expand Player Info API

I agree. This would make the possibility of custom tools to help players design an accurate washing guide custom tailored to them a possibility.

 

No. It might be unhealthy in some sense.
Next time when people R > boss run. Then they $maple the ign to get the more washed character.

I am just making a wide guess if there are actually such toxic hosts.
But I think generally there needs to be a some privacy on the info (in a mushroom game?!), info are everywhere but they don't need to be for everyone.

 

People can already do this by simply asking party members about their stats or DPM45. If they really wanted to be an ass about it they can just ask for a screenshot.

 

This already happens when boss parties are being formed and the question "How much HP do you have?" is asked. If you lie and die from one hit when you said you could survive, of course I'm not going to take you on the next run. This isn't returning how many failed boss runs are the user's fault, or how many times they've been reported for harassment. This is asking for a simple stat to be made available to improve the tools for users to help washing.

 

There is a huge difference in, you actively providing the infomation to them, and they getting your information without your understanding/consent.

 

You are an ass if you know you are going to get 1hit-ed but you lied that you are not. That it plain wasting everyone's time.
The concern is that there are many "barely enough" HP ranged character out there, that have to double pot or something. There is a chance that the host wont take them in, because they are deemed as "risky".

 

Thete's limitation for 3rd person to see others info.

For example, Drods bot gets info from ML homepage, which unlogged 3rd person can access.
Otherwhile, you can access much more detailed info about your account, only when you login, and these are basically blocked from 3rd persons.

Just remember why drods washing command is $washes class lvl mp, instead of $washes IGN. Also, reason why you 'must' login to see your characters base hp/mp/detailed lvl history, and can't see others.

 

Fully agree with yurain here in the sense that I'd rather provide my own char's info than have everyone be able to freely look it up.

 

Good point. I think it'd be better if there was the option for users to expose this data or not. That way, players who feel targeted or scared to be absolutely roasted by smegas and have everyone point and laugh at them if their MP or HP is low, don't have to expose it.
The default for this info should be private with the option to make this info available in your Account Details on the website via some switch or consent option. This would allow tools only to access the info of those who've approved of it.

 

> Tfw you disagree with my post and 100% agree with it in your reply

 

In your reply you agreed with someone who said "actively providing" the data. This wouldn't be that. With my suggestion, your consent would make your data freely available to anyone at any time, even while you're on the pot or sleeping. So yes, I disagree with yurian and your agreement with yurian that you should actively provide your data.

EDIT: The marriage of these two ideas would be something called an API Key. Some unique identifier that is only provided to you that you can then input in some script or application that can only look up the data with the API Key provided. Unless someone else had that API key, they couldn't see your 'personal' stats.
