I think making everybody start with 0LP would be just as appropriate, and easier for the Nadeo team. Especially because as I'm seeing all over the forums, particularly here "the ladder doesn't matter anyway"PurplePants wrote:Thanks for the translation.
I can see that once the ladder is working things would get sorted out eventually. However, I feel that you need to make an example and show that it is the cheating that is bad, not just the being caught part. Thus making those cheats start again with 0LP would be appropriate, I think.

Re: Boosting over 60k LP
I disagree, because then there is no penalty for cheating. Also, as a non-cheat, why should I be penalised for what cheats do?I think making everybody start with 0LP would be just as appropriate
It doesn't matter because it is not doing the job it is meant to do. Being gameable by cheats doesn't improve the prospects of that being fixed!particularly here "the ladder doesn't matter anyway"
I think the ladder could be implemented much better, but it is the only global ladder we have and therefore the only way of measuring our performance against our peers. If no-one got ladder points there would be fewer players, and the ones that did play wouldn't try so hard to win.
I appreciate that you might not see it this way because you don't play online, so you'll just have to take my word for it. I certainly play for points, and pretty much everyone else I see plays for points. There are a fair number that think it cool to say they don't play for points, and accuse others of being points whores, but even they really play for points and are just too embarrassed to admit it.

renamed to "Let'sRock!!! 80k"
i guess it should be called "Let'sBoost!!! 80k"

Re: Boosting over 60k LP
Boosting your LP is bad enough, but stealing other legitimate clan's names and putting them in your server name is wrong.
Something really needs to be done about this - I don't care so much about the boosting as in a few months it won't matter anyways, but stealing other team's names is just wrong.

Re: Boosting over 60k LP
Nadeo tries to do something as Hylis said in a thread yesterday:
Not sure of what that mean but the fact is that they searchong to resolve the problem.
ps; sorry for my bad english^^
He said that there were a problem to access a server (I think he talks for Canyon Tek 80K where Dtc* play) they put the this server on the side (I don't know how to translate^^, I think the server is non available for the moment) and the LP of the players have been drop to the maximum LP you can win on normal server.Pour info, il y avait un soucis sur un serveur difficile à joindre hier en 40-80. On a donc mis en attente ce dernier et rammené les joueurs qui avaient joué dessus à un nombre de points maximum gagné sur les autres serveur. De toute façon, ce n'est que le temps que les choses se régulent, comme pour le ladder de Forever, et tout devrait rouler ensuite.

Re: Boosting over 60k LP
Thanks for the info, slumpy.
Have to say that's disappointing (and checking right now I see they have 70+K). Where is the incentive not to cheat? If cheating is cost free (and getting max LP is cost free) why would anyone consider not cheating? Hell, with my lowly 20K LP it is costing me not to cheat!the LP of the players have been drop to the maximum LP you can win on normal server
Re: Boosting over 60k LP
Nadeo is working on the ladder (as Hylis said), just wait that this one if established or improved it :p
