I'm personally not that bothered, but I know some people are and clearly want to have a go at getting into the top 10 again, so sure - why not!

Yea, other people played for 1 year to become number 10, so other players need to do that too.
Too bad the server is working with a points system, instead of a k/d ratio.

Before I do reset the rank there is one thing I could do that perhaps would make it easier to reach the top 10. I can make sure 4 players are online before ranking starts (this to make sure noone is just killing an AFK-player on the other team, for example). What I can't do, however, is to rank players after K/D ratio - it is impossible with the set-up I have right now.
Also, as we've discussed several times before the point of the ranking system is to attract loyal players who play a lot on the server - this can only be done by ranking people after score.

Another thing I can do to help clear up the stats a bit is removing inactive players (say, those who haven't connected in two weeks time or so). Would you like this?

If enough people say 'aye' to a stats reset I could perform one, yes.

The at least 4 players idea is good, just like in HLStatsX or smth. And removing inactive players is also a good idea.

I don't want to change anything except that you will remove inactive players and you can put on so the server need 4 players at least. Because for the first time I joined the server I felt like many new player how the hell am I going to get rank one when it's 30k points away. I got up to Top 10. Then My computer crashed went down to Rank 24 I think. Then I started to play again and now I'm Rank 1 with 58k points. And the day Evil took the Rank 1 from Wirus I said to my self I will be Rank 1 someday. And now I am. I ain't hard to get Rank 1 just play a lot. But If it resets I fell like I have spent over 300 hours to nothing.

I know you guys mean it well, but this is the worse idea I have ever seen.. Some players have played for even more then a year, the others that didn't aren't a high rank. You'd break this, just by resetting the scores.. I mean like, i'd let the scores of what they are now, some people will just have to step up, grab the courage and play ti'll death, To reach that Top 10.

evilblack you're a good friend of mine,
but this isn't the way, i mean c'mon people work
like a year to get high, and then all that hard work will be blown
away in one reset, and if newbies wanne get in the top 10
then they must follow the ones who are in the top 10
and play hard and long, and not the fast way......
but i can say this, if this vote is passed i will stop playing,,,,
only when people ask me to come i will help them, but i am
not going to do all that hard work again....
