Why is there not a ranking system in reach? I mean we can't get new players to join the Halo community if they keep getting ran by statwhores.

So my question is: WHAT WAS BUNGIE THINKING?

Blame all the people that abused the 1-50 ranks in Halo 3.


Oh so what, people boost whatever, it's better then no ranks at all.

boosting happens more in reach than it ever did in H3 lol....

Now its even more prevalent, and worse yet, in social. Which if im not mistaken was the whole point of removing ranks to begin with....

Fact is, people will always find ways to cheat. Making the entire game social was a terrible idea

nerds will be nerds, straight up. There should be an attempt to make people stop cheating, but making a game entirely social to stop cheating was destined to fail from the start

They should just hire one or two guys to ban/reset the people who cheat, not a lot of people really do it and i'm sure it's easy to detect.

lol after I got held off for an hour I made a thread about it on the forums and the mods basically said its impossible to tell if someone actually cheated you, even if you show them messages and the persons history filled with unreliables and DNFs. Apparently even if you can show them the proof of bots flooding you IP, the messages, a gamertag threating to hit you, and the history all at once, its not solid proof.
