Are we still bothering to weed out vets with newb tags?

Mamma Mia, this has become a nuisance. Can we just kill this topic and move on?

Um,you don't need to be an "Elite Hacker" to do it.

Yes,Elzam,I agree...let's drop it.

Look.

I don't want to abuse the Allegiance community's systems, but since I got a new computer - I figure why not. I'll be honest about it, and I feel that somehow I help fight the greatest evil in Allegiance - noob discrimination & STACKING. Seriously, as far as the ranking system goes only your PRIMARY CALLSIGN SHOULD HAVE A RANK. All other callsigns/hiders associated with the account should be ranked a (?).

If this is codable, I seriously think it would stop the frakin stacking but still allow for competitive play - because your rank (lets be serious nerds) is a badge of honor.

I agree that we should hide ranks on hiders!

The only way to stop stacking is to have 2 commanders with an even reputation.Ability is nothing.It's what the community thinks that counts.No one wants to fly if their efforts are going to be wasted.Anti stacking is great for practicing stuff when you know the team is going to lose anyways.

Sorry - are you admitting to flying as a noob though your a vet? or have I misread this.

I have no idea how you are supposed to get a balanced game if rank is hidden. Am I missing something here?

The only way I see hidden ranks working in any context would be if autobalance is used in games to keep them even. This would only really work if Autobalance was fixed too.

You mean we should feel somebody's temperature to know vets from non-vets?

He's admitting to flying as a noob even though he is a voob.

The only way to stop stacking is to keep your games balanced.

The games i command on prime time aren't stacked. Stop using autoaccept.
