Meh, this has been discussed to death. The leaderboards are terribly flawed, not just the Flamebate/friendwhore boards. Really, of the leaderboards with a peen bumociated, at least getting those doesn’t require whoever is in front of you to either bow out or stop playing the way they want in order for someone new to have a chance. How does someone get most forums pwned, most cred, most INCIT wins if the players at the top keep maxing out their play? People give SG a lot of crap, but of the “they have to stop playing” boards she has given others the chance to jump ahead more than anyone else. Maybe they aren’t meant to be something for more than a very few players, but as long as they are viewed as collectible or an achievement, people are going to chase after them.

I do hope CZ considers doing something either with the release of Episode 2 or shortly after. It would be a shame to see a decent influx of new players, only to see some leave due to feeling it was impossible to achieve anything goal based.

I mentioned it in Echuu’s old thread and still say a monthly or seasonal reset would make a huge difference and actually bring a competitive feel to the boards.
