Hello... question about ranking

[OutOfTheCube]

Hi. I've been playing FFR quite a bit for a long time and just had a question about my ranking. Do they actually update it frequently or is it updated once a year or what? It seemed like I was ranked 38,000 for a year and then it jumped up to 2816 overnight. Now it's been 2816 for about two weeks. What's the deal with this?

[OutOfTheCube]

Heh, and another thing, why isn't BBCode or HTML working in my signature?

1) They update the rank every so often, but not very often...I think LD said he was gonna update tonight, not sure...
2) For that to work, you have to use html code, so

3) Don't double post, just edit your last post...

BB code won't work on FFR Siggies because you can't have .php extentions in images.... kinda.

As a workaround, use the code MetsPenguin31 provided.

I thought the server was gonna be pulsed last night if you can clear this issue up for me that would be great. Thanks

Yeah, the servers were pulsed yesterday. It just happened that no one moved up ranks because EVERYONE got the same amount of points in this time.[/sarcasm]

[MetsPenguin31]

[glowstickdemon]

[iopq]

pulse the servers

[MetsPenguin31]

I don't think it's that easy to pulse the servers, as there has to be few people on...Too many on and irt won't work. But I don't know...

But it is that easy

I'll try to update the ranks tonight, but it all depends on server load. I can't do it when too many people are on, because it puts a lot of stress on the DB.

ok, everyone log off, now!

O.o
make a script that pulses the servers slowly
like takes 24 hours or something
increases speed when it can

don't know if that's possible
certainly feasible
