User Naq displayed with zero's first?

Some players Naq is being displayed with zero's leading?
example... 004,363,901,014 Naquadah
But when you click the user to go to there page it shows the naq w/o the zero's.
example... 4,363,901,014 Naquadah

This is a little annoying when scanning for naq.... and confusing that not all players are displayed this way?

Yep, I was just going to post it - I see it too. It's not just naq though, armies as well.

The universe is crumbling below our feet!
All aboard the motherships and enter black hole's.
It might be our only way out!

This is the current rankings. As you can see it's very, very weird looking and non-transparent view of rankings ;)

I feel it was a rhetorical question... but I here is my answer non the less.

I have no problem with a leading zero... just as long as it is consistent.
Some accounts have a leading zero, while others have 3 zero's and some have zero zero's.
I prefer no leading zero's.

the question i'd ask is: did the change appear to have any difference on the farming amounts taken?
its a script-buster...albeit a fairly minor one...

Nope no affect on how much you take - just looks awful and takes a lot more time to farm people.

ok then other option is max 15 different targets for attacks per 30 seconds ....
i could swap it out....

goal is to make scripting harder. have a few secret items, adn the 2 i just mentinoed... (zeroes/spaces on values, and delay on # of different accounts can attack in set time)

I'll not argue it's effectiveness but it looks absolutely butt-ugly.
It's looking like the game is bugged even though it isn't.

I'm doubting you're valuing security above appearing properly?


I'd go with the restricting number of hits per time instead. At least it'll not look like it's bugged.

Number of hits per 30 seconds is, sadly, already limited :(

Somethings screwed again.

01:43 Nitro 2,498,858,813 Naquadah stolen 1 16 399 1,040 3,619
Jun 21, 2012 Jimbo 5point3 23,390,194,608 Naquadah stolen 10 80 695 1,057 billion 1,491 billion

Went from billions to ... thousands?

This is not a bug and was a scripting defence.
