Making Standings Optionally Private or Public

How can people even remotely care about a win/lose ratio in a huge BG where it's the case of " go to this GC, it always wins" I'd respect the underdog in this case more than someone in the lolwin team. Really "winning" in frontlines is a very strong usage of the word in all honesty. Even pvp "ranks" aren't actually ranks in the competitive sense, but more like just a dumb old level up to wear better gears situation like in pve. Rank should have to be maintained, not something u get and then have forever.

TL: DR don't treat win/losing in FL so seriously. Nobody cares.

you'd be surprised. a lot of people care even to the point where they have stopped playing FL altogether because they are on Flames which has the highest chance of losing on my data center and they don't want to start over with another gc because they don't want to get gimped pvp skills or lose their pvp gear since they are r40. they don't want to "ruin" their win rate. no matter how hard I tried to explain to them that the win rates tell nothing more than what gc has a higher chance of winning on the datacenter and reflects nothing personally about them.

imho, those standings were a bad idea. people with gaming OCD (people who are obsessed in having perfect or near perfect scores and stats in any game they play) are raging over it. i've seen a few slightly heated debates about it a few times in my linkshell. try telling someone with OCD not to straighten a crooked book on a shelf and they will rage over it because its serious to them that that book is not in order. to you and I its something meaningless and pointless, but to a person obsessed with perfection it means all the world to them and they'd rather not be shown in the standings at all rather than being shown with low or bad stats that they have no control over.

Winds seem to shift on Aether, from what I saw 4 weeks ago Maelstrom was a monster, the two weeks after Immortal Flames were an inferno and now this week Adders had their A game on.

GC hoppers. Also pretty sure free-login has brought in a surge of bads this past week.
