Are you kidding? Why would anyone tolerate this? Whats the point of keeping DKP at all if you're just going to redistribute them every few months? Some guy comes and does all the heavy lifting and earns 4x as much DKP as another player, then you swoop in and "adjust" it by handing his hard earned points to a person who does far less. If I was in a guild that penalized me in this way, I would leave immediately. There is zero reason to get your DKP above the average since you're just going to lose it. Its a race to the bottom.

you are very bad at math. Or reading.

The adjustments only apply to active players. Which means, the newer player with low dkp is currently doing approx. as much as the high dkp veteran.

And, one never loses one's ranking. But look, if you are not going to try to understand the system I laid out, well, this is a waste of my time.

I think you are just trying to protect a system that ensures senior members always will have a huge dkp lead. An adjustment system does not allow that kind of cushy setup.

Sounds like a dodge to me. The way you wrote it sure sounds like you're redistributing points and calling it an "adjustment"

"The adjustment involved decreasing the points of people at the top and increasing the points of (active) players at the bottom, to get a smaller spread of points."

So both of us join a guild at the same time, I get 1000 dkp, you get 100, the average of that period for everyone is 500, so one guy loses some and the other guy gains some so they are both closer to 500?

Set me straight, because that sounds like a straight up con
