I'm just curious, Im not a stat padder but I don't understand why everyone is getting so pissed about stat padding. So what if they unfairly arrived at their rank does it really affect your skill to kill them anyway when theyre not padding. I mean seriously, they unlock the guns that really are only slightly better but beyond that its not cheating per se or really a hack. It dosent actually benefit either team It just unlocks their weapons. So why does everyone get so pissed at him and feel we need to devote so much time to find these people and ban them from the game or whatever. I mean yeah it feels good to say "hey i unlocked this gun legitly and im glad i earned it" but if someone else has it thats not gonna change my feeling toward the gun because deep down if they didnt earn it they are still not gonna be as good as the person who actually earned it. And if its because you feel its a disgrace for a nub to have a high rank its irrelevant because someone who sucks worse than the stat padder can achieve that rank just by playing a lot even if they never actually get better. So I'm sorry if you guys think I'm wrong in posting this I just dont understand the constant complaints of stat padding cause it really has no effect on you as a legit player.

P.S. I assure you I don't stat pad.

1. Its irritating when they're in the same server as you are because you're obviously down in terms of firepower

2. I don't like people who don't deserve it take my medals.

From what I can see

5. They get more points than you

or

6. They have more points than you in a shorter time

Thats not me though, I frankly couldnt care less, just as long as they arent on my team, and god help them if they are

!. You are always gonna be down in firepower cause there is always a few crappy players on your team so having a few more really dosent change much it just means you have to try harder which will make you better just for the practice it gives you.

2. They're not taking your medals theyre just unfairly taking the same one as you but for them it dosent mean anything cause deep down not even your medals are worth anything because the last i checked this is a video game and having the expert combat medic badge or whatever dosent add to your skills or add to anything IRL. At least you know that you got them fairly.

1. Not THAT down as with 2 people hiding in some obscure corner reviving and stuff. Your scenario is simply theoretical.

2. Yes they are. Anyways, they're padding for something in a video game aren't they? That makes them worse than a loser.

1. Very Well my scenario is theoretical. Its just that typically Its never really affected the outcome of my games when there was two people of in a corner stat padding I still went on playing and my team still won usually do to capping flags and fighting the enemy who wasnt stat padding cause theyre stat padding dosent cause the loss of tickets you only lose tickets when you dont hold enough flags or the person has to respawn at a spawnpoint.

2. Yes they are? What worth something medals in a video game are worth something? The last time I checked there just for bragging rights and bragging rights don't mean anything unless you can back it up in game.
