I am a level 20 (close to 21) however I have been downgraded to level 19 for no apparent reason. I have not been moderated with point loss either. It be much appericated if this can be resolved and brought back to my current level. Thanks Moderator's.1uP_OnYou
Read the post above this, but the moderators wouldn't be able to help you anyway.

So I dropped a level and there's nothing I can do to gain it back?

Why does everyone latch onto this idea when it's not as simple as that? :cry:

It might appear like you dropped down, but you didn't. When you get back to level 20, it will level up much faster than it would before, meaning that in the long term, you aren't losing anything. It's all explained in the opening post of this thread.

I honestly have no clue why this has caused so much confusion especially if users have already read Tevians post. :?

At the end of the day, this thing is becoming very amusing :D

Funniest moment is that admins and moderators are "FOR"

EVERYBODY ELSE are "AGAINST" :D

Small scale war is rising ;)

BUT HEY, WTF, it's hard to be ADM/MOD!

P.S. Just one more thing... LEVELING system is maybe THE MOST interesting moment of GAMESPOT, everything else is very "midrange"

The only people "against" are those that don't understand the change.

Indeed. I think once people know that they aren't actually losing out in the long term, then they aren't against it.

yup..I don't get how they've managed to miss that from Teivan's post like...and Hungry_bunny's little sketch makes it pretty clear as well...then again, it wouldn't surprise me if half of them didn't really read it but rather just skimmed over and didn't really take any of it in..that type of thing is unfortunately all too common on the GS forums..

Well if that is one half then I bet the other half read the title of the thread and hit submit without reading any posts at all:?

I understand perfectly. I don't see why everyone is so stirred up about it. If your level drops it drops.

I really didn't even notice. I think the majority of the people don't mind the "change" especially considering it is a lot easier to get past the hellacious level 20. I remember spending several months on a level (don't really remember which one as I don't pay much attention to it). In the end, it's not that big of a deal.
