back in the day when it was 5 people mob pking , they would get warped , warned , or reset when it went too far because it was an unfair advantage that tainted the leaderboards. Same with gh pking , same with Bush pking , people didn't like it so it was dealt with. The only difference here is this one is more public and because people just come across it and join in , admins can't just warp/ban/reset people anyways if they wanted to.
I'm pretty sure if mob pking was complained about since it started then staff would feel compelled to do something about it. But back then it didn't really affect all time that much , so people didn't complain as much.
Now it is affecting the leaderboards and people have started complaining , but it's so far along and has become the norm so it is now just accepted?
If this new leaderboard started a few seasons before mob Pking , and one season mob Pking just took over , everyone would be complaining as it ruins the leaderboard and something would be done about it. It's just gone on too long.
What hAppens when it grows and people are getting 20k in a day? I can guarantee they would do something about it then. And why? Because I'm sure the developers would much rather people earn there stats and not have them handed to them because some form of boosting has became the norm.
