Idk how the rank system has changed since 07-08, but it really seemed smooth and solid back then. I'm in full favor of a full ranking reset. I have been ranked 2 at one and stay around 50-60 now no matter how much I play. The whoreness nowadys is on a whole other level lol. We ranked up good while being good and having the max amount of fun years ago.

True dat homes...

I don't... I don't know what you kids on the zm server say now a days.

yay for lots of input! thankss anex

ghosting is against teh rules an WE realise that, but ppl still do it all the time even without saying anything an the way they do it is WAY to obvious, (a person sayin out loud "hmm i wonder where xxxxx is hiding?" then going to spec to look) an as obvious as it is its not like we can call them out on it because how can it be proven? unless theyre like "OMG THATS WHERE UR HIDING" or something.. as out of reach as it may be to ask, i just wish there was a way to selectively dissable spectate, or make it so that you can only spectate Pl@Yers of the team you were just on

about the rank resetting... i think that could potentially be a devistating option >_> a lot of ppl do Pl@Y for rank an have worked hard (sometimes very cheaply) at getting to where they are now. so my thoughts are that those ppl would be like "fck this" an ragequit. i mean i personally dont give a shit. i was placed like 20~ish last month an now im like in the 130's ;z its all about who the person is an what they Pl@Y for. so if they really love the server than it wont effect them, but for others, they may just peace out for good

admin panel: idk how well it works on the other servers, but it lags like fck on zmod. its ESPECIALLY annoying when trying to make custom map votes (which i do quite often) or even regular map votes. the panel itself will just dissapear an reappear (if at all) after like 5-10 secs. i mean its not ALWAYS this way. it has its good nights too, but its bad nights outnumber it imo.

mic lag: idk about others, but for me the mic lag is terrible on some nights, even after restarting the server its just really skippy. some say they dont get it at all while others get it non-stop. any ideas/solutions for that?

an srry; chris young likes to do it once ina while..

Who cares if they rage quit after a rank reset? I hate rank whores who get their rank though cheep tactics. Speaking of which if you do reset rank make sure you put an end to all their cheep tactics before you do it. That way they can't up their rank doing the same thing.

I'm sure people like that won't be missed much anyways.

I could give less than a shit about my rank. I spent the first 6 months playing b4 I realized there even was one. I am deffinately on board. I may have whored in the past but recently when I play it is just for fun again. Somehow I haven't fell out of the top10, although I think that I should have.

I don't think that is ever going to happen :/

This! Reset is useless without settling the prior problems. Zspawn fix [disable it] alone will fix 2 problems if not more(spectating spawn["ghost"] and zombie only tag whoring somewhat).

I'd be fine if the rank system gets reset, but I'm wondering if it would do any good. To me it seems that the only thing you guys will get out of it would be self gratification for wiping away the work of all rank whores. But even if you do so, and take away the exploits they used to climb the system, there's a chance that you'll make the situation worse. A good number of rank whores feel "fed" at the moment and are quite content to not play aggressively. But all rank whores, dormant or not, are always seeking to improve their KDR. By cleaning the stats, you'll give reason for all rank whores to actively pursue a new and improved k/d ratio. A server full of active rank whores would be disruptively abusive on the zombies. Rank whores will always be present, and they'll continue on whoring. Even though they might not be as great as their current rank tells, these players do have a considerable amount of skill to easily decimate and scale the ranks. And there's always the possibility that they will find new exploits to replace their tools. Just my

^ THIS!!!!!!

some people (ive personally heard) would actually prefer to have their stats reset so that they can have a fresh start as a "more experienced" Pl@Yer rather than as the total noob they were initially where they probly had no idea stats even existed an didnt care about rank. so ya i second bane's money input

[Meltdown]

Why not remove the whole rank thing if it makes people play so much differently when they start noticing it is there.

[Pl@YwithM3]

cus then those ppl will have "nothing to Pl@Y for" an it all becomes meaningless to them.. no sense of competition, or something...
