Message text As someone who has two pilots, Gringo and Muerto, I can honestly say I have never played against myself (webmasters confirm please if any one asks) or any of my friends with the "trainer pilot" so they get cheap victories, they get them cheap enough from me already. 
I can't see the point of artificially boosting my points, I'm in -ve kills, but not doing too badly in won games. :-P
If I want to rank up more kills I will play in the 4:1 games as the 1. I might get 2 before i'm shot down (unlikley for me, I know), or I might join as 1 of the 4 as well and fly off quickly to give myself better odds (I have seen this happen, but I don't know if it was the same pilot )
The ranking system just gives you an idea of how experienced your opponent is. Its a game, its supposed to be fun to play. We are not playing to win cash, just to have fun, lighten up everybody.
If someone is desperate enough to be in the top 10 (or 20 etc) let them waste their time, I personally would prefer to have fun, and spend my time meeting "friends" and making new ones.
PS If the scoring system changes would kills against my "trainer" count against me, it defeats the point of using him if thats what would happen. |
