Wipe the Leaderboards for more PvP

[Baam]

the leaderboards should be wiped imo for more and better pvp, people would not worry about scores and self hting and item plugs etc

[Redi]

ya i think we should delete that guys spreadsheet that he manually maintains

database or nothing

[fiegi 8.0]

agree but when no leaderboard u got ppl like brobby doing what he did in KC, dying 14 times

[Baam]

Wipe it

[vouss]

Starting to look like Zek around here

[SamwiseRed]

the current leaderboard isnt official numb nuts op. dont like it? dont look at it. if you want a fresh one, start parsing fresh logs and maintain it yourself.

[SamwiseRed]

"hey jeremy, you know that board you maintain on your own free time? here is how to run it." - random nerd

[Kerwin]

wipe it clean, i dont want anyone to see my 100 deaths

Its called strategy. When your wizards wanna burn all of their mana bars on a wizard who is out of mana, be my guest. I'm a team player.

Delete the thang all together.

I don't want a fresh one numb nuts, you obviously don't get it :confused:

Keeping scores make people sooo afraid to die and not fight til death, plugging at 40% cause you have a 50+ kill streak on Crushbone / afk / bind camping noobs really worth it?

LOL

[Baam]

Exactly! No more leaderboards

[Aikido]

Delete that shit, on TZ back in the day we would take a death if it meant running into a group and take a player out or two solo.

It's pvp, no need for keeping track on every single kill

[pgerman]

lol




lookin pretty blue in here

ppl been plugging and avoiding pvp way before leaderboard/yt was added.

And people plug a lot more because of this leaderboard always keeping an eye on them, it's like if you put a camera on someone and let them know they are being recorded, they WILL change their behavior

With the leaderboards gone people won't worry that much about who killed them and their scores, they would pvp more and give less shit about dying (and people who can look them up and see their scores)

Take Vegetables for instance, he is never anonymous (come at me bro) and never plugs, enjoys the game. Now add a pvp killing machine attitude. We would seriously have some fun like that :cool: :eek:

[Trainhop]

Think of the Leaderboard like you would a bike.

Okay then you should be advocating the removal of YT which is how people can keep track of kill/deaths. The leader board is simply a log parser. Why do you even care what nerds do with their own time and money?

Isn't the reason for YT is so people in game at the time YT appears knows where there is pvp? To encourage other people to go to that location and pvp???

That's how I use it, keeping scores is a totally different thing

YT and keeping track of kills/deaths is not the same, all I'm saying is keep YT in game and delete leaderboards, and I do care what nerds are doing with their own time and money if it affects pvp in a bad way WICH IT DOES

Making people plug more and scared of pvp because of some score means less pvp no matter what you say kid, and that ain't right

[syztem]

pre leaderboards sure people plugged a lot, most of them didn't instantly come back or wait to come back to move around they just kinda left and came back another day. but I remember SK's who were stuck at 58 59 or even 60 that would simply not even want to risk death because of the exp penalty would be hours of exp at the time. with addition of YT it made people even more afraid to die, and it being logged and posted on a leaderboard publicly for all to access and log gives them a bigger dick/ego despite it not really showing skill.

YT is how the leaderboard runs. I am not sure what you guys are confused about. Anyone can make a leaderboard and "keep score." You guys are talking like the leaderboard is run by the staff, it's not. It some random player's side project. You guys are trying to tell someone what to do with their own spare time. Kinda like how I used to tell people who to play (don't zerg,) I too once suffered from the same brain rot.

Do what I do and not give a shit about the leader board. If you actually care about your KDR on a elf emu then you care way too much.

If death was like zek and didn't involve a CR, then I doubt many people would plug. It has more to do with the time sink of a CR than YT. Even in a guild with 100 warm bodies, its hard to get a fuckin port around here. There was/is hardly any plugging on Zek and that has an in game leaderboard.

Why is your name not SamwiseZek if you riding zeks nuts so hard? If you don't like red go play on zek son

LOL

[SamwiseRed]

You're the one complaining about some random player's website. Unless you are helping him pay for hosting then kindly fuck off.

[Baam]

LOL u mad kid. I win

[SamwiseRed]

:o

[Aikido]

Hahah Baam you struck a nerve, and Sam why do you want red to be like zek? Not classic to die without a CR. seems like you wanna play easy mode red/zek

[Xaanka]

wipe it clean, i dont want anyone to see my 100 deaths

[SamwiseRed]

never said i wanted red like zek, i was saying most people plug so they dont have to CR not because they care about the leaderboard. maybe im givng you nerds too much credit though.

[Baam]

Do you even play on red anymore?

[iruinedyourday]

If someone HTs them self and there is no leaderboard what's the dif between that and you landing the killing blow?

[pgerman]

Because even that takes a slight amount of skill/timing

Ask mobster he has failed at HT'ing himself multiple times over and still got YT'ed LOL

I mean seriously though.. if there is no leader board, when someone dies all you get to see is their corpse falling to the ground.

so without a leaderboard, doesn't that make EVERY kill the same as someone harm touching themselves? Just a corpse falling to the ground?

u see wat i mean tho?

I have played this server with YT/leaderboards and without. Pvp on a whole was not changed.

YT just makes you feel like your part of an online game instead of solo questing, everyone knows this server does not mean shit.

Take the trash talk out of pvp you don't have much else really.


What this thread is really about, is shitty people not wanting the internet to know EXACTLY how shitty they are. All of the best players on the server ALSO have good KDRs.

It may not be a perfect portrayal of "skill", but its one of the better tools of measurement. IE if you play a support class, but everyone understands that.

It does take some skill to not get YT'ed, no matter how you do it. Any game mechanic is there for you to use.

Both sides, show me a player that has a good KDR, that you would not consider a pretty decent player , excluding sub 60 pvp.

[vouss]

Getting the YT means everything.

[iruinedyourday]

I say if we can get 500+ get rid of YT and global /ooc

but until then, keep it and shut yer yaps!

[Tamiyo]

You guys realize the leaderboards stopped parsing like 10 days ago? Sounds like Bush is done regardless (unless I missed a post somewhere).

[SamwiseRed]

i dont think half these guys realize the leader boards is some dudes personal website.

[Baam]

People knows bush ran that shit and always missed some yt's anyways

The leaderboards are already history, no need to advertise how insecure you are about your EQ game play.
