ah seems ppl will never understand this ranking, every1 keeps asking the same questions every month... its a management ranking ... so if a management (PGS, NiP,...) changes their cs team or disbands it they don't lose the points, but they obviously don't gain any.

NiP earned a lot of points in 2006 what made them stay on the ladder for a long time after they stopped playing. The same thing will be happening with PGS now.

So it's not monthly rankings, rather "all time" or since zonerank started if you will.
And teams lose points during time if they go inactive (A month after the team\player receive their points, they will start losing points monthly in an downwise exponential function (e^-x) where X stands as the passed years.)

Yeah learn how the ranking works before you start whining about it, it's the best ranking system the e-sport scene have ever had, and that's a fact.

It is a terrible system, yes have the rankings, but use the money for good effect rather than make the rich teams richer for doing nothing related to ZoneRank.

If the rankings were good enough they wouldn't need to throw money at it, END OF STORY!
