ok so we have it back but i think it would be better to show how much money people have as well, just like for planets plunderd it shows how many the top ranked people have plunderd,
i rememeber how hard it was to get on the rich list on fast and i think it would have been easier if i had known how much i was aiming for |

99+ day(s) ago | true about arti spam,
but also the only server you are likely to have 600 mil credits is slow, from my experience, and although that isnt the point you are trying to prove on most of the other servers people on the rich list tend to have a high enough income, therefore they could well still be making lots of money with whatever fleet they have, also if they have a market based income they would quite easily be able to change their income easily, ie because the markets change so regularly they will make a range of money, and it woulde very hard to judge if this was becaus of a fleet or because of a bad day on the market, similarly if they income based they can easily hide this by buying up minerals or food or selling them |

99+ day(s) ago | It is easier to know the EXACT fleet from PR changes, obviously. I`m not talking about RT, RT is a foolish server. I`m talking turnbased.
With an idea of my income, one would have a pretty good idea of what my fleet is if they checked my cash from one point in time to another. Knowing that I went up by 100 mill PR in such and such days doesn`t help much, but knowing that I went from say, 500 mill cash to 600 mill cash DOES help. That would probably mean that I have a cheap fleet. You don`t get precise numbers, but knowing a PR increase is almost worthless after a while, whereas this has a much more feasible application.
No. Showing exact amounts would be foolish. Additionally, just because a said person is at the top of the richest list doesn`t mean they have max cash. If you KNOW that they have 999,999,999,999 cash... you`re a lot more likely to arti spam them. |

99+ day(s) ago | surely its a lot easier to work that out a fleet by looking at pr changes? |
Deiloche
99+ day(s) ago | Uhm, NO. I do NOT mind having rankings, but actually showing what cash I have? You do realize that from that you can figure out what kind of fleet a person is building, if they are spending some time building it? HELL NO. |

99+ day(s) ago | blazed i read and understood your post, it made very little sense. now i am on the rich list on fast and i wouldnt mind showing people how much money i have, as im not really that protective about it,
once again the point i am trying to make is it isnt right to rank people according to a certain variable, but not show how much of said variable they have, |

99+ day(s) ago | Obviously you didn`t read my post or you`re just to not-smart to understand what I said Counter....Mallow, the point is this...It`s none of your dang buisness how much money we have!!! |

99+ day(s) ago | Blazed... you are crazy showing off planets... if you really wanted to know someones planets just figure out there base power... only time you have a hard time with figuring out how much land someone has is with TAX empires but then again you can clearly see their base power are higher then there planet count by alot... example some people have a base power of 150 to 250 with only 10 planets or less & that is ther base power... either cause of land size & infusture or how much pop they got on the planets & research they got...
I like the rich list... A.miner would find this game pointless without it... not only that i just noticed a growing number of Minerial A.miner coming back & i know of 1 major Goods A.miner around..
Planet count doesnt mean anything... all my clusters are sucky... & i know a terran with a base power over 100k with just a U.Large i think & well why does he need good planets... most players get high planet count for fed ranking or more money... only good planets really matter... some people stick to small planet count & just gordo there planets till they are so huge its unbelievable lol |
mallow
99+ day(s) ago | blazed thats competely different, if your ranking people on how much money they have its fair enough to show how much money they have, if your ranking someone on how many planets they have, show how many planets they have, not what planets they have |

99+ day(s) ago | well... whenever anyone asks me about my cash reserve... normally i will answer...
"...it`s for me to know and for you to find out..."

Blazed
99+ day(s) ago | If they should show how much money players have on the rich list then they should show what type of clusters and how big they are on the planets list. How`s that sound??? Sounds pretty dum`b to me. But hey..that`s just me... |

99+ day(s) ago | the rich list is just another list to brag on about your empire :) since no figures are shown it`s only "cool" to be on it :P |
mallow
99+ day(s) ago | you say they need privacy, but then again its the people who demand privacy who dont want the rish list in the first place, and who are still bitter it was brought back, the rich have no privacy, so why do you still try to maintain they have any at all |
CounterCrazy
99+ day(s) ago | If you want to know... the rich people dont respond to all PM`s & especially on the slower servers lol... i never check my PM`s there.. if someone applies to the fed i get the PM a week to month later...
I agree we should be able to see how rich people are... it sets a good goal for some... |
mallow
99+ day(s) ago | fair enough you can say aim richer but how much richer, the fact still remains that if you are the top people will find out how much of something you have, and just because its money and not planets or battles shouldnt be a reason to hide how much you have |
