For more than a year, I have hardly tasted the sweetness of being on the leaderboard. For me, this era has come to an end.

No matter how hard I try, the rankings remain unmoved, let alone making it onto the list. The algorithm itself may have its logic, but honestly, the signs of human manipulation are too obvious.

I've heard more than once that, on the eve of the leaderboard's end, some accounts suddenly drop significantly in ranking; conversely, some accounts with just a few pieces of content managed to jump onto the list. Even more outrageous, after a period of no updates, the rankings actually continue to rise. As these phenomena increase, it inevitably raises doubts about the fairness behind it.

It seems that the original intention of the mechanism design and its actual implementation are quite misaligned, which is also a common criticism from many community members.

Algorithms... are really a bit like mysticism It's better to go somewhere else than to wait passively; the rankings are just a false reputation Can't compete anymore; these rules are a joke Human manipulation is too obvious; I've seen through it long ago Not updating and still increasing in rank? Then what's the point of me working hard

This list is just a joke. The behind-the-scenes manipulation is so obvious, yet they still pretend. Algorithm? Haha, as long as you have money and connections, you can get on. We're just doing the work for nothing. Instead of staying here and competing, it's better to think of another way out, brother.

Forget it, this ranking list is just a joke. I give up struggling. The behind-the-scenes manipulation is so obvious. Why should I keep fighting? Every day I see people making things up to get on the list. I don't understand this logic. The system is completely broken. Just leave it be. Not updating actually causes the rankings to rise? What kind of crazy logic is this?

Can't keep it up anymore, this leaderboard really makes people want to vomit Such obvious manipulation, who still has the motivation to keep grinding Watching some accounts rush in with nothing, while we tirelessly update the rankings and nothing changes... Isn't that frustrating? Algorithms, to be honest, still can't escape the tricks of human relationships I just want to know how this leaderboard is actually evaluated, it feels like all internal manipulation

This is outrageous. The rankings are almost a fixed arrangement? The algorithm black box hasn't been transparent for so many years. You can't beat human relationships, brother. Not updating the rankings actually causes them to rise. Is this a show? So the rules are tailor-made for certain people? This kind of mechanism should have been overhauled long ago.

It's obvious now, this ranking list is a joke. How can they still have the nerve with such obvious behind-the-scenes manipulation? The algorithm is just an excuse; everyone knows who's really pulling the strings behind the scenes. Human manipulation is too outrageous. I am also a victim... The rankings are rising even without updates? No one can understand this logic. This mechanism has never been fair from the start. The ranking list is dead, and we should wake up. It's all the same. No one can play the game fairly; it's purely about reading people's faces.
