Right now its a feedback loop of epic proportions, idiots teach idiots, who go on to teach more idiots, who will eventually teach even more idiots.

Well if they're the only ones who want to help out, what can you do?

Well tbh, it's just Jimen and Unclebuck.

And it's not voobs/noobs teaching voobs/noobs. Buck, let me direct you to AFS AND CADET II!!! Also, I've seen Grav and Fwiffo take noobs aside and teach em stuff. Hell, Fwiffo takes a bunch of noobs and DESTROYS THE ENEMY WITH HIS ARMY!!

So on the side of actual discussion people are just trolling the crap out of this. Way to go....

It is so annoying that the loudest people in this thread hardly play/ don't play.

To keep allegiance alive I propose people without function in this community, unlike sl,supporter, zl or dev, must play one counted pug per forum post. If it is whining: 2 pugs.

I was agreeing with jucktos statement that rampant idiocy is forcing vets out.

Elzam you routinely give noobs bad advice, and when i correct them/you, you flame me for being a "voob" and how i am only rank 8(as if the current ranking system means anything) and and they should not listen to me.

Match and point.

If a vet is so immature that they let the clueless piss them off so much that they leave, that's their problem. Even if the new players are getting bad advice....at least they keep trying. Eventually they will discover better methods if they stick to the game long enough. If it ticks you off that everyone isn't doing the things that they should correctly, then take a break if they aren't listening to you. Just make sure to come back, which most vets do.

The current ranknig system means something Unc it's your play across your career holding you back. *shrug* There was several options availible and the one choosen, for a variety of reasons, was to count all games played. So like me, you're stuck with an eight. Stop swinging that epeen about incase you hit someone who probably shouldn't... at least when it involves that topic

Otherwise have at it,

and all I can say is I agree with Goldie err Cooki 1000%

The ranking system clearly does not even report most stats. Has me listed as 5 base kills, and 2 captures. I'd say i average no less than 3 base captures each week in big games. Only 2 listed though? REALLY? I doubt that. Just a couple weeks ago i had 5 base captures using bios HTT on a hihigher game, vs GT. Captured 2 outposts, palisade, expansion, and something else. That same night someone went OM Tac, and I solo sb'd several bases. This was a game of 15v15.

I have no idea why the stats rarely work, but it is clear they do not work. (Do not even get me started on the ranks them selves that is an entirely new story.)

Whether or not you get your base kills is a statistic and only good for:

Making you feel better about your very accurate rank which utilizes your total game history and then compares it to every other player, which is all based on a system that doesn't care a fig about your base kills

edit stoopid old underlines

IT still shows the stats system is broken, If 2 parts of it are broken, i am inclined to believe more of it is broken, and mis-reporting,
