-Player coming out of Vmode, won't appear in top10. What happened in X-TREME was because of the transmission from the old system to the new one. This subcase has been already forecasted and coded with the implementation of it. Massacre players can certify this.

-The certain abuse policy mentioned here, regarding raid is indeed true. However it is also true that such an abuse (and any other abuse) can and will get you BANNED. I agree though that it also needs a protection mechanism to help administration and it will be incorporated in the near future.

-Regarding live update, surely this can easily be changed (Scoreboard works with delays after all). If you indeed believe that this hinders your gameplay, we could move it to 15minute updates.

I think results from today shown tomorrow would be best.
Sometimes you are online setting up for a hit or a ninja for well over an hour.
And also the results of your previous days raids should not come out in a chronological order or else someone would be able to keep track of these stats and know your online times.
If I watch the scoreboard every hour and see that everyday you are raiding at a specific time than it would also be fair to say that your fleet is landing very near to this time of activity.
I would say the best way to protect players from this would be to take time out of the equation completely and only post a daily update to the scoreboard.

Some players do not have the luxury to play all day every day and must only sign in at a certain time period like after work and before bed.
These times are usually the same 5-6 times per week, with the rest of the time the fleet is fleetsaved and the fleet lands around the same time everyday or close to the same time.
If another player can get a definite time of activity and a general time of fleet landing from the scoreboard there will be no sense in building fleet or attacking with it or else you will be exposing yourself.

Not necessarily.
These other methods do not reveal your fleet being down.
Online times based on forum activity does not mean your fleet is down.
Sending in game pm's to log response times do not mean your fleet is down.
Showing that I have attacked does.

zorg we all know that this new upgrade reveals many things but you can not accept the players to disagree with his change mainly cause it took you a while to make it and it is in fact revealing many things

it revelas how much you raid- let say for instance 1.4 bil given the average 4/2/1 mine production- its pretty obvious you raided about 800 mil metal 400 mil cry and 200 mil deut and that you consumed about 50-80 mil deut for that

that translated into lgs- given that most players means about 7.5k-8k lgs and lets say you raid like that for 2 days and you loose some bcs you rebuild about 1 mil - add some fodder you get 1-2kbcs- 12-13k lgs and a few k hfs/2-3kbs-10-15k lfs

probably a few ecs

that is what the new upgrade tells about you

this things can be generalized accordingly to your growth if you are 100k and you have raided x amounts you can see your mine lvl see increase in other parts and extrapolate the amount of fleet you have- your enemy can keep track of you and you of them- plus it attacks the player base- reason- raids and noobishness

more than that why do ppl need to know how much you raid? why do ppl need to know the top 30 battles why do ppl have to know all this? you can no longer have any fleet secret

you can no longer have fake online times

cause if you want to mate trust me without the score board you can fake them big time

you will not agree with this probably because you imagined it is a great idea - it is not. perhaps it worked in M idn how the deal is there but if it goes on like this M will soon follow up with the rest of the servers. as i said we can cry all we like the upgrade is not going to change - but i pointed out what most fear to point out. :o :o :o
