Not that my profile is correct or anything..my hps and mana are off a bit( if I upgraded and sync'd it might be right), but due to the lack of people who have updated their profile on the ranking board and those that haven't bothered making a profile at all..do you think the fact that you're now requiring people to pay for things that were offered for free under eqrankings have effected usage?
Honestly, this site is no more accurate(and probably less) then eqplayers. I don't personally care much about ranking or where people fall, but not having guild tags bringing you webpages, or being able to look up a recruit with any sense of confidence in what's listed makes the site really ineffective.
When launching the site, I think it would of been better if you initially offered the same services at no cost that the combination of magelo and eqrankings offered, and once you get your database populated, then move to a premium requirement for certain functions. Without more accurate information, and a higher % of profiles being ranked..the validity of the ranking system is undermined. For those that care about that type of thing..you're not "33rd serverwide for stat X" you're "33rd serverwide for stat X out of the 30%(I just picked a number) of people who bothered to populate the ranking board".
I would think, if you offered the same services that were free before w/o requiring premium service now, you'd have a more successfull, and accurate product. Then people who have premium accounts would have more accurate data.
Personally, I just use magelo to keep track of my mods..anything else doesn't matter to me. It'd be nice that people who are paying for a service to have more validity through a more thoroughly populated chart though.
