ok seeing as the game is getting a lot more players now i think the g&r range should be decreaced back to the 1% and 0.1%.
as it is now its not much of a challange to get to the g&r range, 1% would make it more fun,
anyone aggree???

no,we do not agree... it is already too hard for new players to get there, the 2 and .2% is hard enough... what you propose is to make it almost impossible for new players to ascend...

its always about the newbies.
eventually they do get enough experience to know how to get up the ranks.
and besides, new players aren't new for too long...

we also think that the gap between the strong and the weak should be decreased, not increased...

this does nothing to increase the gap, the players do that themselves, the strong get stronger, its a fact

it would increase the gap through making it harder for new players to ascend, and through that gain the ascension bonuses, while those that are strong already (around living god or better) would not need to ascend, and would therefore not loose much of anything...

I have a friend in the top 600 and I know that even with my stats climbing at the rate they are, I would not be able to ascend until this time next year. At 1200 Everyone has a better shot.

If you can't manage to ascend within a year, your not putting enough effort into the game to deserve to ascend.

Why not compromise, g and r could be limited to top 500 ranks, but those ranks get 5 g and r a turn. That way players can rush ascend, making room for other players to fill the gap.

then you need much much better UP and income, or to learn how to keep your stats more even
and balladbird, that would be what gooseman is suggesting only x5 the stronger people would just rush ascend getting stronger, 5 times faster making it even harder for the newer players to get there. and if you make the G&R range static then the top 500 strongest people are just gonna sit up there and no one will be able to get in, unless they somehow take out a bunch of them and then even more miraculously manage to hold that rank long enought o ascend a few times

What I meant by that is that as I get stronger those ahead of me get stronger and with a smaller range it would take much longer than it should to get to where you ascend.
