Okay let me explain this simpler with a little scenario.
I am a cheater that ruins the game.
I get rewarded by being the highest threat level for ruining the game.
Everyone gets to know I'm a cheater ruining the game.
I keep ruining the game because I now have even more incentive to do so.
Meanwhile all the legit players get no positive outcome from it this.

Sounds like a nice goal/achievement for cheaters to reach and gives them incentive to cheat with no positive to the greater community.

If we would have 10 full financial district copies there’s such a small chance that the copy you joined to play will have the same skill level players on opposite faction. The problem is an outdated limitation of amount of players you can compete with and the best solution is to make cross instance matchmaking to be able to get opposition from all district copies on go without loading time.
Your first sentence contradicts the rest of your post??????????

Just now, Rade said:But you do it anyway because its not your fault the matchmaking system is broken and you dont want to lose your gold threat. If threat didnt exist people like you may not be so try hard on newbies / not so good players because you would have nothing to lose. Equally if we had a working matchmaking, you would never be up against newbies / not so good players. I still maintain the concept of matchmaking in general doesnt help players get better it just divides the good from the not so good and we dress it up under the label of creating a fair playing environment.
Why would I care about my threat when I've never not been gold and the matchmaker has me so set at gold that I could lose 100 games in a row and still probably not drop to silver.

Just now, Rade said:glaciers, this is a conversation about APB....
On that note, you are free to do whatever floats your boat. If stomping the opposition is rewarding and entertaining for you, cool story bro.
Did you even read his post or mine.
Neither of us enjoy stomping lower skilled players.

1 minute ago, Rade said:Its your choice to destroy them or not. What you could do is help them learn. I take myself as an example, in FC I dont kill bronze or trainees. In missions I go easy and let them win and help them.
Your problem is you have a very polarised view, ie I destroy anyone with lower skill or I dont want to play with them. This is what makes you toxic.
Okay, so I guess if I'm already toxic I might as well just stomp noobs as hard as I can.
Got it.

12 minutes ago, Rade said:Its players with your elitist attitude that make all online games crap for everyone. Besdies, without the threat system everyone would be the same colour and we would not have the toxic behaviour you are displaying right now.
Wait. So me not wanting to destroy people with lower skill level than mine is toxic?
But I've been told that seal clubbing/noob stomping is toxic.
I don't know what I'm meant to think anymore.

17 hours ago, Rade said:I have chipped in the conversation around threat on these forums many times over the years but I still like the nuke button option. Get rid of threat and matchmaking. Players only get better and learn by playing against, and with good players. All threat does is put a bubble around not so good players and toss em all in one big toilet. I say flush the chain and let everyone mix together in the sewer down below. This will help foster better skilled players. You wont get better if you dont challenege yourself.
Or you also have optional districts that are a free for all, threat / rank doesnt matter and players are matched based on a whoever is ready basis.
I don't enjoy slamming greens, bronzes, and silvers.

You asked the Question, maybe you should block my posts, then people wanna wonder why people are so toxic.
Cuz LO lets people like U Run things, n I don't mean like U work for them, No They let people of your caliber do n say
what ever, cuz they scared of you sweatys. They know if they don't cater to your kind they get ddos.
You sweatys got Matt by the Jewels. He turned off the anticheats, His staff turned off segregation after you sweatys
begged n cried to be let into bronze, n regardless of the staff persons insanity, anger toward bronzes, conspiresy, you name it.
It is still Matts responsibility and fault
Still not reading your posts.

18 hours ago, VanilleKeks said:I'm not sure if this is considered tech, but there is a thing that I call render distance abuse. It is possible to shoot enemies that are not rendered on your screen after 100m. I never bothered with the exact distance but it's somewhere in between 100.1-102m.
This is only ever really useful when holding an objective on weapons like DMR and Oblivion but it's incredibly potent when it works, because the enemy can not see you.
Used to go out even further. I remember something like 116m I think.

Any addition or change in the game mechanics would require someone to write the programs in.
This would take allot of time and LO resources n to tell the truth they'd probly mess it up n then we'd be stuck
with a days of down time or more while they fixed it.
@NotZombieBiscuit People were already Toxic/Angry when LO got here.
Ranging from mistrust or issues with G1, ff false bans, to player v player hate.
All that rage is still here, never went away, although not Matts fault, things that he has changed since the take over
such as weapon balance, voice, no-threat district, MM, ect have.
Including a whole new slew of player on player grief due to them putting us all together.
Matt is CEO and Owner, and he is also the one writing the new games code, in addition to
other outside obligations he tends to. He doesn't delegate any other Executive or General Staff
to run APB and deal with issues, nor does he delegate the coding while he is out of town.
In the end He is ultimately responsible regardless of delegation.
Allot of it is not directly Matts fault or doing, but re-directed anger by those that see Him as one
at fault for their having to deal with what ever the issue may be.
I didn't read your post.

Instead of asking for APB to have PvE stuff, how about you just play a different game that caters to PvE stuff? Just go play the Division 2.
And how is the toxic community and Matt Scott/LO issue?
The fifth level of threat as a replacement for anti-cheat. And also as a tool for regulating the balance of teams.

The benefit is a social one. One of social reward/achievement to them that is ALSO publicly shown. It is giving them a way to boast about their cheating.
And you're also distracting actual players. The only one that gets anything of true value is the cheater.
