PvP Leaderboards

I'll never support a server wipe again. 3x was enough on vz/tz. Sploitin was classic too apparently, don't punish the many for the few.

Yellow text was classic sorta..server wide duel messages were originally on live.

duels yes, but not pvp.

if you wanted pr0f someone was killed you'd post a ss

A server wipe would kill this server's legitimacy.

I want one for purely selfish reasons, I was late to the show.

lets get back to YT.. we know the wipe isn't gonna happen.

i think it definitely causes the annoying ZL battles back and forth.

if most people knew it wouldn't be broadcasted to the whole server that they died.. more people would try to fight.

now it's all about who can do the most burst DPS at a ZL.

How come everyone who wants to abolish YT has a negative kill death ratio

What's next get rid of PvP and raid dragons all day, don't we already have another server for that?

Sullon Zek had a leaderboard the only way we can have a leaderboard is with YT to track it. Now if they wanted to make a staff run Leaderboard and remove YT fine sounds great, but we have a leaderboard and have had one for years because players wanted it so bad they made one.

So obviously more people want it than don't, you can even opt out of the current leaderboard yet no one has. So if you don;t want to be a part of it opt out.

Same thing with OOC and the people that beg for it to stop, just ignore whoever is making you go so EMO, just because you have thin ass lizardskin doesn't mean everyone should have to do what you do. Man up or shut up.

Supposedly the 'new' season 2 leaderboard is going to be a lot more advanced compared to the current system, which currently credits lv 10s more points on a lv 10 noobie then a lv 60 gets on a lv 60 noobie. Essentially they are going to remove the point incentives for lower level griefers by making their yts visible but their points far far less then a kill on a higher lv player. I mean if you had to I'd want to just abolish points altogether on low lv players, but supposedly the new board will make them so worth so much less then a 50s player that its going to be marginal anyways. The low lv players will be able to to keep track of who among them is doing the most work but none of their kills will be worth anything compared to a high level kill, a low lv sub 50 player would basically never reach the top 50-75 again.

There was a lot of discussion about this in the other thread and we all agreed on it, and we're basically just waiting for the new board to be released so we can all take a look at it and decide if its as good as it's supposed to be (In comparison to the old board)

if your not in the top 10 I really don't give a fuck what your opinion is

The sad part is plenty of other PVP based servers have solved this problem, but for some reason the devs here refuse to open up an API so people who have taken the initiative like Jeremy or Elderan can get access to base level information like player class and level.

Until then a leaderboard will be an incomplete piece of shit, with no fault to the person creating it.

I mean, any of the devn00b/image boxes have an in game leaderboard you don't even need a 3rd party site. SZ had it like Syft mentioned, I don't understand why they don't do it here.

They could improve the yt by also showing class and level of the killer/killed. Which then would allow the 3rd party leader board to split into the griefer board and the leader board.
