Could we get inactive players removed from the leaderboards? Doing so would provide a more realistic view of who we are competing with. If an account is not paid if full, then toons associated with that account should not appear on the leaderboard. A one month grace period or something similar would be fine. If an account is banned, then the toons associated with that account should not appear on the leaderboard. If a toon has not been logged in in a long time, say 6 weeks, maybe 3 months, then that toon should not appear on the leaderboard. Look at the most NPC kills Mistmoore leaderboards. Many of the top toons on that board have not been played in a long time. Also, many of them have stopped playing on the sam e day. I would not be surprised if many of those toons we re on banned accounts. -Leucippus

Banned players should not appear on the leaderboards either, even if the associated account is not banned.

SoE doesn't identify players, they identify accounts. Otherwise, we'd have no spammer problem! Spammers themselves could be blocked, regardless of how many accounts they have, or create - wouldn't that be nice!</p><p>Any toon belonging to a banned account shouldn't be eligible for the leaderboards, I agree. If individual toons are banned independent of an account ban, those toons should be ineligible for the leaderboards as well.</p><p>I'm not sure it's entirely fair to delist inactive accounts, or if so, what interval would be appropriate. I mean, we don't strike down records in sports because a player retires or dies? Although if we do find they were cheating... then that record is considered for removal. </p>

First off Hey Leuc <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> To somewhat answer your questions, we are looking into way of making this work a little better when it comes to Banned players and Players who have inactive accounts or haven't been logged in for a while. It's not an easy thing to fix but we do have it on the table and we are working on it. Hope that helps!
