Something has to be done about this point system:(

Well, I had 1200 points, just under, I was in a game, died, boom, lost 150ish points. Yes, it was an error, that causes me to lose a lot of points I normaly lose about 30-40 points a death, which is ridiculous aswell All I can say is that I feel sorry for the people that have 2000+ points. I think this point system is just extremely stupid and I do not understand it at all

I think the point system is ok but for the 1000+ points ppl it's real bad to lose around 30-50 points per death

Yeah, it gets really frustrating, and its extremely tricky to stay above 1000 for mediocre pvp'ers like myself

Well, the point system is based on the amount of points you have. If you have 1200 points, and get killed by a lucky person who found a stone sword who is only 39 points, you'll lose a lot. I was at 115 points once, and killed someone with a huge amount of points so I got almost 200 points from that. It is a pretty weird system, but it does sort of make sense.

First of all this is to YKargon, i doesn't matter how many points the killer have, you always loose 2.5% of your score as long as you have more than 240 points, why 240? because 2.5% of 240 is 6 so this is the limit for where you will loose 5 points. When it comes to the fact that you loose so many points it is irritating to some degree, but again it will also show of the skill of the people you play against much better. Believe me i hate it sometimes aswell, i loose about 130-150 points everytime i die, but again it shows people that i'm a good player because i can maintaine that score and have it go up aswell.

I have to direct this topic in another direction- the real problem is not the points, but how the pvplogging is handled. It is terrible. When you leave a game 5 minutes after getting hit by some noob at start on the other side of the map you still loose the same amount of points as if you just recently got killed by said person. and in addition to this the arena deathmatch ruins the game for teams, if they decide to no t kill each other in the end they will loose points to already killed players when they jump into the lava. This is a huge problem and is highly under-estimated by the admins. Something must be done. I suggest lowering the pvplogger timer to ca 1 minute. I sometimes get killed by a person, then that person leaves the game for some generic reason, and when they do i get more points back from them than i lost in the first place!
