Feature Request - Sticky Prestige

It no longer amazes me about the stupid assumptions people make - like the one quoted above.

There's no resentfulness about saying either SG-wide or the Top-100-SG list's prestige ranking is useless. I *am* in the top Prestige earning on some of the SGs I'm in, especially if you go between my alts in the same SG, and still think it's useless.

The flip side - well, head up to player questions. Someone's looking for a good SG, and they were *assuming* the Top 100 list actually had some relevance to that. Fortunately they seem to have been put straight and pointed in other directions, from individual recommendations to the server section of the boards, to find one that will actually fit them.

Or read some of the comments in this (and the thread linked earlier, which is the same OP with the same suggestion 3 months ago) - boiling down to "My prestige shows how important I am to the SG!" When... it doesn't. For all we know, the people on the list are second, third or later generation, and all the people who founded the SG and *did* do the work to get the base up and running (with all the prestige earned to do so) are gone, and thus don't show. And it certainly doesn't show who's actually active, helping out, knowledgable, etc. versus a farmer who does nothing else with the SG and basically uses it for storage.

It leads to silliness like promotions by prestige (instead of earned trust and ability) and demands to stay in SG mode to get even more, even though there's more banked than will ever be used. (The request is understandable in a new SG with a new base. But that's a 'get off the ground' as opposed to 'ranking on a useless list' request.)

Removing that number (and I generally think that, yes, just showing on/off would be better) would get those groups to perhaps actually *evaluate* the people they've got and work as a group - and get rid of individual "I'm important because of this number" nonsense.
