DISCLAIMER: I know this has been suggested several times before. However, the ideas were not fleshed out enough.
In many MMORPGs, players can settle a disagreement (or maybe just duke it out) by dueling each other 1 on 1.
I've seen my fair share of arguments in the game, and I've always wondered if they could battle out there differences. In addition, it would be pretty cool if I could challenge my friends one-on-one rather than seek them out in LD.
The battle would be a to-the-death fight. You would click on a player, and select "duel". This sends the player a request to duel. If he accepts, you enter a duel ring instance. Players then fight till one dies, and victor gains a small amount of (maybe 10?) Prestige.
Is this a good idea, or should I change it?
You should graveyard it. You're right, it has been suggested before. It's been suggested in more detail too.
