You gave a suggestion and your reasoning...I offered up a counter argument in an attempt to dissuade your opinion. Our counter points can be considered an argument. An argument does not mean it has to be violent or contentious in nature. Ever hear the term "argument" being used in reference to a debate or a court case? Any other questions?
So your comments of "no life" or "no real life" werent intended to be derogatory or at least to infer that those who dont play as much are some how better or actually have a life? Thats a lil subjective dont ya think. Say what ya want but its my opinion you didnt intend it in a kind or meaningful way meant to persuade the masses to your side of the "argument".
Everything I said was relevant to the discussion at hand....I was merely expanding in attempt to explain why I felt your suggestion was not a favorable one. Im the sort of person that likes to give actual reasoning's for my comments so others understand why I agree or disagree and not just disagreeing for the sake of disagreeing. Sue me.
Back to the actual topic. At the low levels there are literally thousands of abandoned accounts. Most players in the beginning feast on these abandoned accounts with no recourse which result in awesome win/loss ratios. Many of these accounts then quit themselves in short order....I would argue that these accounts would dominate your proposed leader board category. Then u have those that either hit and hide or battle very lil other than to get their dailies....once again they would stand a much better chance at leading this category. Hence my reasoning's for a minimum number of attacks. Why would we want to reward players who fight very little with category that would be all about fighting? In your first post u said....
In your first post u said...."Having the most fight kills and fight wins only gives bragging rights to the person who has no life and sits on the fight list 24 hours a day.". Well of course it rewards the most dedicated of players...as it should be in every aspect of life.
In a game thats been around for years and where many players have already amassed huge totals doing exactly what Kano intended them to do....do u honestly think it would be fair to introduce a new category that they would have no chance at legitimately competing for? At the higher levels where one has far less (if any) rival page.....they have basically no choice but to level with another player in which they have to return the losses which really doesnt offer them much opportunity to "right the ship" in order to compete in that category does it? Kano doesnt even offer leader boards for the arena...nor do they offer achievements for the arena except for ones that are reasonably obtainable by all eligible players...why should they differ here?
Than we have the whole potential alt abuse thing. Its not very skillful or strategic to use an alt account to rattle off all the wins ya want while never taking a loss now is it?
Like I said previously...I once thought this to be a good idea and even suggested it myself, but after thinking it though a bit more I came to the conclusion it was bad idea for the reasons Ive mentioned. Im not speaking solely from the perspective of a high level player I have accounts in all the games that vary in level range from low to high. Your whole attitude about players that have more time to play comes off as petty jealousy and ignorant. Active players make these games go round bro, if u simply dont have /want to spend that much time thats your choice....but its really not a valid reason to infer they are somehow less than deserving or that those who play less deserve any more.
