In the way the stats are calculated are our more recent games weighted higher than our older games? Or are we still being pulled down by our stats from when we just started? I don't particulary care about allegskill btw, I just want to play the damn game.

I do think the rank system needs some tweaking, but that's a different discussion.

What would happen if we tossed the data is a bunch of vets trying to keep their rank as low as possible. This means people scuttling games, hopping sides, and generally compromising gameplay. It's far better to tweak the system we have to allow more movement in ranks dependent on the player's current abilities than to scrap it all together.
I agree with shizoku.

Just to weight-in... I like having a clean slate and I have actually gone out and check my stats since starting FRESH! Love it, brings some new fun into the game for me.

same here, right now i am 3rd in drone kills and nearly have a k/e above 1. Also i have the same number of wins as losses(right now). If i were to compare these stats to my previous i wouldn't really connect them as the same player. Typically i don't stats whore but they are a public way of judging you and i think these show me more as the player i am now than as i was (i was horrible as a newb, even compared to now). The stats reset is a fresh start, and personally if you contribute to the team and win you should gain rank. (As it was meant to be) And i only hope it at least shows as a testament to the progress I, as a player have made.


.... majorly off-topic. Luckily i don't think these fourms are moderated.

Going off of Shizoku's point.

A soft reset.

Just take the last 1-2 years then average it all down to ranks 10-5 or 15-5.

I assume this is all hindsight now, so just what I would have suggested/voted for.

I prefer not having stats public.

But I understand that is not the norm, so I support a stat reset.
