Could you please add a tab to the leader board for NPC kills. NPC kills are already calculated in the player statistics so it should be fairly easy to do I would think.

Honestly what is the point?

I know most of the leaderboards provide nothing but #*&$ swinging contests, and this would do nothing to change that.

With all the other catastrophic issues affecting the game, what good reason is there for Dan to put time into this?

It takes like two minutes.

You act as if he doesn't have those two minutes. Dan has plenty of time to fix issues, he just chooses not to.

I'm not a programmer so can't challenge you on the 2 minute claim, even if it does seem low...

But here are more reasons why this is a bad idea.

Lag. Already bad enough, now add in tracking NPC kills and think just how many can be killed in a very short space of time. Lag time would be apalling.

If Dan doesn't want to change the catastrophic issues affecting the game, what makes you think he wants to add minor tweaks like this that will simply add another ' my dicks bigger than yours' measure.

Other than the small 'it's cool' factor, what exactly does this add to the game??
