Level 29 with Rep10,000 (yeah,10k) and a Level 16 in the 3rd place with only Rep4.7k

Am I the only one concerned that this (so called) Reputation system is totally dysfunctional because of its MinMaxing abuse?

No, you're not the only one concerned but nothing has been done about it.theintelligentboy wrote: Level 29 with Rep10,000 (yeah,10k) and a Level 16 in the 3rd place with only Rep4.7k?

Yeah, this is a strategy, its just that its not only mediocre but also (brutally) abusive.-[RECAP]- wrote:Min/maxing is a strategy anyway
Now I feel like only the Sentry should control the level of the network.TheLurkingRage wrote:No, you're not the only one concerned but nothing has been done about it.theintelligentboy wrote: Level 29 with Rep10,000 (yeah,10k) and a Level 16 in the 3rd place with only Rep4.7k?

Your right...but this statement is also right:theintelligentboy wrote:Yeah, this is a strategy, its just that its not only mediocre but also (brutally) abusive.-[RECAP]- wrote:Min/maxing is a strategy anyway
You cannot make someone guilty because he/she didn't wanted to upgrade his/her miner.... Own network, own will.-[RECAP]- wrote:But at the end...it's their own network and they have the right, NOT to upgrade a node...
I didn't exploit the shield to reach #1, I simply hacked enough to gain more rep than I lost. Unlike you, crack, GodKiller, and most people to ever even get near the top of the leaderboard, I actually climbed while dealing with competition. I used to lose up to 200+ rep a night and went head to head with my rivals (mainly Arch and crack). I used no exploits whatsoever and being from discord you should know this. Given TA's responses (click here, here and here) on the online shield matter, I started "exploiting" the shield afterwards to keep my resources since I stopped actively climbing rep once I reached 4k rep and I didn't like burning resources or staying full until I could upgrade something again. With how bad the loot is up here (click here), using credits, receiving donations or "exploiting" the shield combined with the Elite rank bonus are the only ways to make any significant progress, but of course you non-endgame players wouldn't know this because you haven't reached that point in the game yet and you always start over before you do.iblitxkreig wrote:This has NOTHING to do with minmaxing, i could achieve this without minmaxing as all you need is "lurk" abusing the shield and playing 10hours a day... anyone could achieve rep like this by farming.... And Yes higher level would be harder, but with Lurk shield abusing guide! and farming 10+ hours a day, level has nothing to do with it.
So yes i played 10+ hours a day just farming rep... it can be done at any level.. rep is based off how much you play.. it has nothing to do with "minmaxing" nor " skill ".
Please explain this one to me for all you min max haters!
