@Davidgumazon Apologies if any grammatical errors of mine made what I was trying to say unclear, so I'll attempt to clear it up:

I'm quite paranoid of match-ups and losses being done out of spite. It was a contributing factor to some of the rules I made as admin and it still sticks with me now. So it is likely that which is making me uneasy about seeing the tiers at the bottom of the page, but for the sake of argument that it isn't just my paranoia thinking this, is it perhaps arguable if the Hall of Records would be better without tiers at all.

There are those who take vs debating and even these fanon battles quite seriously, who then go on to take wins and losses here seriously. So then to have something that says "a character has lost more than they've won here, thus far", they would interpret that as "that character is weak".

And this was something I forgot to mention before: that was precisely why the Animatronics from Five Nights at Freddy's were taken off the Hall of Records in the first place. Para never intended the Hall of Records' tiers to be used like that, but for Freddy and his fellow Animatronics alike, who were being cast into a lot of unwinnable match-ups, it was a case of specific individuals trying to give them as many losses as possible to somehow lessen their value as characters and have them ridiculed due to "being a weak verse".

So again, this is from past experience and likely a part of me unable to let it go. It's likely going to be just fine. I'm probably overreacting to seeing tiers make their return. I just need to get over it and accept that most of the community are obviously not out to make characters win or lose on purpose. But I just thought if there's even %1 of concern regarding the tiers where I may have a halfway decent point, then perhaps it could be discussed.

I'm not in charge anymore: the community is. I just wanted to address the issue of tiers.
