Ok , I have seen how the drop rate on medals was lowered and this was to prevent people who are really experienced from just joining and moving up ranks in 1 day..
yet on every server I go to there is always SOMEONE who has spent $400
or more to maintain his spot in the ranks

Yea , I understand lower the medal was supposed to even things out but it didn't in fact it just forced more people to pay more money.
I seen a guy today while the #2 highest prestige was 30k
(1 day of server being opened)
The #1 guy had 10x his prestige almost breaching 300k in 1 DAY
that is just ridicules now nobody in the server can even go against his alliance because he is just too powerful

I am not sure how you should fix this or even if it is broken enough for you "Devs"
To pay attention too...
but I wouldn't doubt you are all just sitting back thinking

What ever we make $400 off these noobs..


Not Cool.
