I voted no. Are we going to do the same thing to poker and blackjack? You get more value based on higher bets? Or perhaps more people at the table?

The ranking is number of enemies defeated. If you want to rank, you can do it the same way as everybody else. If you don't care about ranking, then it doesn't really matter.

I would really rather DXD be fixed where it is fully functional and reflects accurate data.

A re-do of Enemies Defeated may be too complicated.

However, if Big D added a category called "Reputation Points Earned" that would seem to open up the board to a whole new set of pirates not interested in volume but interested in quality of enemy defeated.

Aye, I believe it should. Somebody could take 1st place on the Leaderboards fer killin' enemies and they just spent way too much time killin' Cadets or somethin'.

After over 6 months of not working at all, the leaderboards partially have started working again, as of last week or two.

Ya the notoriety & weapon lvls are accurate, all the new guilds made after mid Dec 2009 have finally been added, and ur also listed in ur current guild now, guild member list has been updated as well.

Stuff that hasnt been fixed yet is the enemies defeated, ships sunk, pvp, times in jail boards, dxd names submitted since Dec 2009 haven't been added to directory yet (acct when logged on shows the dxd name, but if u search in the Directory for the dxd name, it says it doesnt exist, if u search by pirate name, all the dxd names approved since December still show up as Guest3 blah blah blah)

DXD, leaderboards, guild event postings and players stats are shabby, poorly constructed and an embarassment for disney. They need to fix it, improve it or junk it.
