We also need to push PGI for a public wall of shame for mocking and ridiculing new / terribad players.

Swearing and threats need to be allowed as well.

Freeeeeeeeeeedoooooommmm!!!!!!!!!

It's definitely a perishable skill

So when the population is reduced to the top 12 players against whom every other player is a "bad" how will they find matches?

Of course one could pay a bit of MC to stay off said Wall.

At least we know who to blame when Russ puts this into the game.
Also +1 for obvious reasons.

Sanity checks ?
On an internet forum ?
A gaming forum as tense as this ?

*exasperated sigh*

C´mon, Bud ... if youve got the smarts, then use it where it might do some ACTUAL good ?

I wouldn't mind PGI giving out 25MC to the top ranked player on each team every match. Oh, the amount of mech bays I can get for free ... Posted Image

Edit: LOL ... actually reading through the topic the amount of bads people worrying about their MC totals is too damn high.

Yellownet,

Good stuff. Working as intended indeed. Initial though was "What an a$$ hat, this guy is". Saw it was you, and then thought "wait a second..." Gotta admit I didn't figure it out until the first Look Closer post. That's some good troll right there.

It's cool, Yellonet - most people who didn't see the satire, myself included, hated the idea. That's a good thing. The day when you can post something like that and get most people around here agreeing that the "bads" need to be punished will be a sad day indeed. Posted Image

I'm sorry but this has got to be the worst idea/suggestion I have read on these forums, punishing players for their bad performance while rewarding those that don't have a bad performance? As if the elitist egos heads aren't swelled up enough already.
