Resetting the stats is horrible. The people saying "Hey its a fresh start" and "You'll get it back" and "My win record is messed up because of cheaters" are heartless, arrogant bastards. Like I said in my other message, I only care about my own hard earned, time consuming, cheated on freaking level. Ignore the people who say reset the stats. No one cares about your damn win record, and everyone should forget about the leaderboards. Leave them where they are, I really don't care. The "pro-reseters" just have a big ego.
I have more reason to hate cheaters than anyone, which is why I am satisfied enough with just being rid of them. I want to just forget about it and continue where I left off. Resetting the levels will give the cheaters the last laugh.
Resetting the levels doesn't benefit anyone anyways. You morons saying "Let's find out where I'd really be" are making a completely illogical statement. Here's why. First, the games you won didn't involve cheaters now did they? Second, you're REAL complaint is, "I'm not as high as I should be AT THIS MOMENT IN TIME!" Basically, all you've really lost is TIME. So, thinking logically for a second, you would realize that resetting would only ADD to the amount of time. Time I do not want to spend getting back what I already deserve. I'm willing to spend time bringing 2v2 up to my other levels (17) but that's because I have yet to earn my level in that playlist.
If you want to see you're real level, then you will continue on you're merry little way. If you reset the ranks, you'll be fighting people of all skill levels at level freaking 1! In a sense, you're new levels will be even more inaccurate and false than you're previous ones. Everyone will just start saying, "My win record is not as good because I had to fight good people at level 3!" You people will never be pleased. But you can do right by your true fans, Bungie, and keep the levels where they are. I will lose all love for the good people at Bungie if you reset the stats.
I don't see how it's illogical to think that you're not at the level you should be, especially since you LOSE experience (and thus levels) when you lose to cheaters. Some people have stopped playing matchmaking because they were tired of getting cheated on, and those people probably would have continued to play matchmaking and gain levels had the cheating problem not been so overarching. Now, with the cheaters gone for good, people will be able to play matchmaking with no fear of getting cheated on, and will continue to play matchmaking and find out where they actually rank skillwise.
Like I said before, if you're so upset about playing good players at level 1, then WAIT a day or two before you play again once the stats are reset. The good players will quickly win a few games and get up to level 5, 6, 7, while the rest of the players are at level 1, then everyone is happy.
