    Never. Too many hands in the bucket of bolts. Plus you've got restrictions in place by Wanmei that prevent our Dev's from being successful at fixing just about anything.

    Besides, the ranking is essentially worthless at this point anyway, even if the data was correct.

    Sylen, I've read a number of your posts and you seem to be very knowledgeable about the game, I'm curious how you've learned so much about it (easy example being the restrictions in place by Wanmei.. I wouldn't have any idea where to get that kind of info).

    I talk to GM's. I've even contacted China directly. Sometimes I even get invited to test new instances and ideas on the dev/beta servers.

    I've been GM/Dev/Support for many games since way back when Meridian59 was in the Alpha phase. (Google that why don't you? =) ) I also have a lot of first-hand knowledge with the client files and server files (Up to server version 1.4.5 that is, but I personally don't run past 1.4.4.) I've become pretty familiar with what it takes to get things working between the databases, the game data, and the website interfaces. It can be a real headache just on the basics.
    But then you add on that the PWE dev's, for the most part, aren't allowed to make the simplest changes and edits to the data on the server. On top of that, the encoding that they use on the website, isn't 100% compatible with the encoding that's in place on the server, and you complicate matters even more. That's not even taking into account the transition data takes from the Linux server to whatever the Web server are running.

    Personally, I'm amazed that they ever even tried to add PWI to CORE, even now, most of the features don't work properly, or take forever to update because of the slow process handling.

    Very interesting, thanks for sharing :)

    In the top right where you sign in/out at, change the language to German.

    Done.

    US page ranking haven't been working properly for years. If you want to check the rankings change language to German or French. For some odd reason, the EU server website ranking seem to work fine just about all the time.
