[QUOTE="bavelb, post: 22344, member: 358"] M Well I didnt claim the database was compromised, but its certainly polluted with unrealistic scores on those platforms. Maybe there is a way to add some metadata on those scores, like how many balls were used and other relevant stuff, so you can cleanse the leaderboards from future attempts to compromises (after you do a seasonal wipe or something of the sorts). Again, due to being on 360 Im relatively safe on the matter, and in general dont care much for leaderboards in games. But for pinball I think this is an essential feature and I think people should be able to trust the scores they are competing against are obtained legit. [/QUOTE]
