PK stats are pointless
https://www.vendetta-online.com/x/msgboard/14/30569#366128
I suggest PK stats be removed from the player char stats.

Or just disallow pks of players from the same IP, and have better filtering and detection of obvious farming.
Or better yet fix a bunch of other much more gameplay-harmful abuse cases first, like hiding inside an impenetrable asteroid.
Bojan haven't you learned that taking this RP shit to bugs is counterproductive? U ready for another shitstorm of a thread?

Haven't you learned that exploiting the game is counterproductive? If you lot would stop making the issues, then we'd have nothing to bring up. Stop blaming everyone else but yourselves.

Some exploits are more counterproductive than others. Farming PKs ranks pretty low on counterproductivity... whose gameplay is going to be effected by Sieger's PVP badge? Nobody's. Who's ego is being pinched with amused success by Sieger's PVP badge? Bojan's, Kierky's.
Farming PK's is one thing, but being rewarded with A/B badges is another, Sieger is a liar.
Unfortunately you can't prove Sieger is a liar about his badges, Yoda. If he had successfully purchased them from you, then yeah, maybe you could. But he didn't afaik. And quite honestly there is no real difference between a super high PK badge and an alpha / beta badge. You get nothing from them in the game. It's just ego pinching and penis size concern.
In as long as I can remember, and that goes over a decade in VO, pk stats were a reflection of players pvp skill. I do not recollect any case (Incarnate can correct me) in over a decade that one player so blatantly exploited alt pk farming in order to match or surpass stats of other players who gained their pk stats through normal gameplay.
If this is going to become a standard practice, then I see almost everyone in vo getting their pk stats up to ridiculous numbers through alt pk farming just because they can and they want the same badges veterans have and they want them fast and now.
This, if allowed, makes the whole badge system based on pk stats redundant - those badges would not reflect any skill at all but merely show that some player has, like Sieger, been grinding in farming alt pks to get them.

What about Sedina G-5 race times? Race tubes used to be a reflection of skill as well. What do you have to say to Niki and Estrian Prosis, Bojan, Ph. D. of Ethics?

This is in reaction to the devs doing nothing about the collision bugs. We want them to fix it as we've posted many bugs threads about it.

So you took the path of yoda and exploited a bug to your own advantage in order to "raise attention"? Cool, that's mature. And you are OK with Mary Jane Cheating pants hiding in a roid via exploitation of the same fucking bug to give you an advantage in retaining conquerable stations? Cool. Seems legit. No hypocrites here afterall!

What in the hell are you talking about?

Mary Jane Cheating Pants, the alt that Wes uses to spy on Latos i8 when nobody is around to check who is attacking, hides inside of a roid, and is used in service of SKV/ITAN.
lol, nope...that's not my alt :-P Guess again Wally!
Who ever's alt it is, it's in service of SKV and ITAN, and thus directly benefits Kierky and Bojan. The point is that they are crying about one exploit while fully supporting another that is arguably more impactful on the game. I.e. it's ok for them to exploit the game, but not others, i.e. a hypocritical statement.
BUGS IS NOT A PLACE FOR DEBATE.
Greenwall, if you cannot understand why your changing the subject and blathering on is counterproductive, then we will remove your ability to post here. I don't care what you think is a higher priority. The only thing that is supposed to occur here is specific, and relevant data to bug reporting.
If it "isn't a bug", then we will decide that. No one else will. There's a place for player discussion and feedback, called "Suggestions". Go discuss things there. Keep it off this forum.
I consider this "bug" to be reported, although it should probably not have been addressed here at all, as a usually a "Bug" means something not behaving as designed. And PK stats are behaving exactly as designed. Proposals for changing design are, again.. suited to another forum.
