Hey, if you're in a guild that's whipping the lash like "The beatings will continue until the morale and our rank improves" - that's your issue.

Don't make sour grapes here because they're motivating their people. After all, if someone doesn't want to - THEY DON'T HAVE TO. Since the Leaderboards are down, GM's can't check up on their members anyway.

A tad disappointed to not see the ETC, BUT I wasn't surprised. We're running raids and crews but its not demanded.

Bottom line - you want your guild's name to appear - put in the work. If you see someone elses, don't complain.

There are a lot of people out there cheating for events like this, but oh well. It's bound to happen no matter what, too many people want to win at any costs.

I couldn't agree more. If they're cheating, that's something to complain to Disney about (although, a lot of people are probably doing the same). If they're forcing members to rank, that's up to them, nobody has to do a thing. If someone were to force me to do something, I would simply leave, or ignore them. If not, I have no reason to complain.

I'll just try not to say anything, because it's known if I get on the topic of cheating this thread will go up in flames..

G'luck to all the guilds from POF up there! Make Papa Del proud

Just to note, we do not put our members up to cheating, nor condone it. Those members will be dealt with. We do require ranking, but we cannot force anyone to do anything, and while we push ranking a lot, we are willing to work with those who can't on a case by case basis.

Additionally, it would appear the incident with the cheaters was a few months back, so it would not affect the outcome of the competition. Speeding has been fixed since, as far as I know.

Woohoo! Congrats Everyone! Very proud that BBK is up there near the top on Navy/EITC.

I don't have much to say on the cheating issue except that speeding HAS been fixed so that's not helping Spania get their numbers. I don't really know much about the guild, but i do know that the numbers they have so far are VERY possible for a guild that big to achieve. Just look at the numbers some of the guilds got from last year. That's just my 2 cents.

****discalimer**** This isn't directed at anyone, but what i said earlier about speed being fixed is true, but that's not how someone would cheat in a competition like this. they would use an autoclicker, and as far as i know people.

Anywho, congrats to all and enjoy the rest of the competition. Good luck : )

Davy,

Way to stand for your guild. If your guild says their members must perform certain tasks in order for the guild to maintain its rank, that's part of being a member in that Guild

Some folks will groan but, if your guild's not doing the work - you won't get the rank.

And if you're not one who wants to crank out the numbers, there are plenty of other guilds out their with their own merits.

EC
