I tend to limit my bounty board interaction with lower level players as much as possible. How is that splitting hairs? If you farm lower level players, you deserve a penalty. If you're higher level, and you're truly not farming, you should recognize that clearing a given player is much easier for you than it is for most of the rest of the game population, and accept that you deserve less of a reward for doing it in terms of rating gain.


no. no. no. no. no. it's easier for me than the rest of the population because i worked to get here. nobody tells the yankees they have to use smaller bats.

I dont know why you say higher levels have it easy on the board
It cost them at least 1 point to take a low level bounty with no guarantee they will win it or wont be counter bountied

Gloat and Honor are part of the game, players just need to learn to live with it .....

Now , less talking more pew pew

So the ladder should be no different than it used to be, dominanted solely by higher level players with stat pools that require no effort to use to beat people about the head and shoulders with?

Great, you worked to earn levels.

The analogy is flawed, though - the yankees don't get to chalk up wins versus little leaguers.

Shoko, a level 200 gets posted, they're going to lose several hundred rating. That's just fact. Everyone and their pet rat is going to pile on and siphon rating.

A level 800 plus gets posted, and unless someone really hates them, they're going to lose 10 to 20, max, if they have half a clue what they're doing.

To how many hunters?

Were they using gloat?

Were you?

And how many levels did they have on you? (or vice versa?)

I don't agree with any buff that randomly can 'improve' the expression of someone's pvp-ing skills with points for a ladder. Especially now the ladder gives rewards, so people are partly getting rewarded for having a buff kick in? That's just a joke.

X2 The hardest part about using gloat is finding someone to cast it on you. It has nothing to do with skill, or the amount of pvping you do, yet you get more points with it active? All it is a point traders dream. It should be removed from use on the bounty board, if not taken completely out of the game.
