Maybe if all your guys weren't such studs, they wouldn't be at the top, fighting the same guys all the time.

The noobs hang out in the small orgs. You're so good that you don't notice them. I blame you.


there is a bit of a point hidden in there. The lower orgs seem to have plenty of guys. Other than the UFL and GLORY's LHW division, its not bad. But overall I believe there are fewer camps. As far as players, Im not sold either way.

Definitely agree with advertising on MMAnews.com. Thats where I heard of it. I'm hardly on there anymore.
I don't think its dying though. Many people will try playing and lose interest. Its not for everyone.

I am worried though that when a new wave of players come through, they will lose interest quickly due to being outclassed by the veterans
I have posted an idea about beginner leagues and wash up leagues. I hope that something along those lines a in the workings for the sake of a new generation being able to go after lower belts without having to try to pry them from the hands of a guy with 50-100 fights.

Hopefully, the next wave will have a few more orgs. Glory was a nice jump from the Delirium, Elite XC and A1. Now those orgs are top heavy, it would be good to get a couple of orgs in between them and Glory & the EFC.

I think you hit the nail on the head.

There seems to be a lot of guys playing, but they're afraid to leave the 1.5 star org zone for some reason.

I've seen guys in Logo that my EFC guys would have trouble with.

I hear ya on the worry on the new guys getting blasted by vets; But remember, there will be plenty of new guys to take on. Vets will be obvious and new guys will learn how to avoid them by camp name.

I believe that as veterans its also in the games best interest if we dont take fights with obvious noobs if we have other options. If nothing else, after we cream them with our GnP over their FS... we tell them why they lost.

If nothing else, most vets will have their guys at high levels. New guys will be down below.

I know most vets will be cool. But look at all the lower belts. A vast majority of them are held by guys with way too much experience.
I can totally see that some guys can't hang in higher orgs, but most of these guys could do pretty good in higher orgs. Thats why I think fight limits should be imposed for certain orgs that have belts. So newer guys can fight for them without old losers hanging on to them.

yeah, but youre never going to be able to fix that. Unless MKick implements a rank/pop deficit for those yahoos at the low levels, that will always be there.

Perhaps remove the ranking boost for champions?

that may do it... but young players should get the boost. So thats the problemo there.
