    I suggested a system that punishes people who PK 10 or more levels below them, though a debuff that reduces their stats. This system works well in another MMO and in that, I got my revenge by killing the person who PKed me, cos their attacks and defence where halved.
    Easily added to the redname system. The more red the name, the more affected they are by the debuff.
    Also, I don't think PvP TWs should count, cos its not PK, its TW and your faction is already getting money from it. So yey! Something is being done!

    punish ppl for pking 10 lvl lower players? only if they show players lvls, and dramatically decrease the damage done by the low lvl players (to the high lvl ones)

    And you dont have any idea of what you are saying about tw pvp. why does kill count in tws have anything to do with money? do you suggest we can pay money to buy kill count?

    People don't realize that lowbies enjoy putting on PK mode and thinking it makes them invincible. They think it's cool and stylish and it will impress hot chicks. The reality, though, is that if you're in PK mode, you might get *gasp* PK'd. Your level should not play any role in this at all.

    The new system seems to be fail. A kill is a kill. Go back to the old system where every kill counted.

    Or hell, do away completely with the PVP rankings. If you're not going to count every kill, why bother? No matter what, it will not be a reflection of how many kills someone has...it will only be what you consider a "kill."

    Might as well adjust the level rankings too. Maybe remove all XP gathered from the cube? Or no oracle xp should be counted?

    Stop doing things to appease whiners PW. b:infuriated

    Stop doing things to appease anyone PW! Your customers are not important and we don't pay your wages! b:angry

    Oh and Wei, try running that one past me again in English, as it makes next to no sense, and while you're at it stfu, you're already number 1, what more do you want? A cookie? Blood?

    Anyways, PvP rankings make me ROFLCOPTER 'cuz basically it's a "who's compensating for having a small johnson/ego/no love from mommy" contest.

    1.they should put lvls on players!
    2.We can see how much pk kills we got (should count just pk not some tw etc.)
    3.Make some Pk rankings
    4.They should make some thing so a lvl 80 cant kill 40, 50 times and thet count , or tell ur friend to let u some kills etc. I mean they should put every kill u must kill other person.
    5.U should not kill -10lv person and get kill (if u kill u kill but dont get anything for it)

    Why not just add to the rankings, one column number of kills, a second with the avg level difference. If someone has 4000 kills but the average is 10 levels below, or 1000 kills but the average level difference is 0, who would you give more credit too?

    Now that's a really good idea - and it doesn't require changing any formulas!

    Like an earlier post said, you could use a chess-style ranking system. Kill a low level, don't get much, but kill a higher level, increase your rank a fair bit.

    I've been looking at pvp, and honestly it's kinda nice to know that someone isn't gonna benefit from looking for me to repeatedly kill. Haven't done TW yet, but looking forward to see how it works.

    You don't.

    Its about time they changed this. Next they have to forcibly stop high levels from killing low levels at all.

    Zoe you are so right there, l have 2 people who are like lvl 60+ continuously targeting me and PKing me with one hit and l have to ask friends to come with me and protect me when lm doing quests especially if l go into the secret passage, there should be an option in the protections to protect against anyone who is lets say 20 lvls higher than yourself... (l say 20 coz l did quite well one time defending myself against a lvl 48 when l was only lvl 32) but we should be able to protect against these high lvl killers who (even after the change) still insist on repeatedly killing the low lvlers just because they are bored (thats what one of them tells me when he PKs me "lm just bored").. lm only lvl 35 and l know l could be higher if l wasnt getting killed off all the time by lvl 60+ PKers

    Lol, what were you thinking rolling your char on a PVP server?

    BTW, this fix sucks bad. Sullivan is now even higher in ranks but he gained it for killing 3X (mostly because he cannot kill anyone higher than himself).

    Ever hear of Reading up on things first? Or are you one of those people who goes to Walmart, buys an easy assemble desk, and winds up with a chair? When I went to join, I read the huge set of FAQ's and the forum in the time it took to download the client. No one's fault you were ignorant.
