So if they offer you a roll back I guess you will refuse Alan?

No, I never wanted to train hp/pray in the first place. And of course I want to be level 4 again, who wouldn't? I'm just saying what about those who don't get offered a reset? Are they not entitled to be included as "Skillers"? Or is it going to be only level 4's that count in some people's eyes? If so, it's a very elitest and snobby attitude that I'd rather not be associated with.

There will probably be polls added before any decisions are made. Admittedly, the polls may not reflect the majority's opinion as everyone doesn't vote, but they can give a fair idea. It may also be noted that those who are passionate about something often voice their opinions and the passionate players are probably more likely to actually use the highscores!

Yeah, fair point.

I'm not taking anyone's achievements away from them and personally I don't care what combat people are or aren't. I'm a level 4 myself (obviously) and I only want level 4 only highscores because I like to compare myself to others of the same level. Maybe it's weird, I don't care really, it's something I've always done. I feel if someone is level 5 and I'm level 4 they're not in competition with me because they're a different level now. It's purely personal, that's all.

It doesn't mean your levels or exp don't count. I'm not part of some cult that hates on people who have combat levels, I did once for heavens sake. It wasn't the same when your name had 'failed' in it after levelling combat? If you were a failed skiller in your eyes that's basically the same as what you've stated earlier.

I don't appreciate having indirect accusations thrown at me on a thread. If you had simply asked me personally my reasons for supporting a level 4 'toggle' I would have told you happily.

In my eyes someone who focuses more on skills than combat is a skiller.

It wasn't meant to be insulting, sorry.

And yeah, I do see my account as failed, but again, that's just my personal opinion on the matter, I'd assume any others don't feel the same way about their accounts with combat levels, and even if I've seen my account as a failure, others might not, so why should I and they be excluded from a particular set of hiscores?
