What's up with this? Is it really possible for one member to have over 3.5 million cards in they're collection, more cards than the site has images of? Site shows this member having several 1 of 1's that I have in my collection.

This was literally discussed in another thread yesterday.

I just noticed today that he/she, out of no where passed me up in the rankings of a player collection. And in my opinion it disrupts the validity of the site.

Yes i totally agree . This person is now #1 on the Mark Grace collection summary Rankings . This Person should be stripped of this Ranking and suspended for Padding thier stats. The Ranking should be earned. A lifetime ban is in order . We are talking about the integrity of the game.

You can worry all you want about being on a rankings list. But somebody having cards in their "collection" means nothing to anybody else or the site itself. There's no validity issue. If he puts a bunch of 1/1 cards on his FS/FT list, that's a different discussion.

From looking at the stats of the Royals and Alex Gordon (two of my collection targets), it looks like all they did was go to the team (and/or) player pages and hit "add all to collection". Yeah, it screws up the rankings, which stinks, but it's not like they actually have these cards.

I respectfully disagree about the rankings not meaning anything. Each member has different goals. People talk about how many trades they complete how great thier feedback is . How many sets they want to complete. To some it means something to others it doesnt.

Yeah, you all don't care that I have the most Cedar Rapids Reds / Kernels cards on the site. It's cool to me to get as many as I can, but I know it means nothing to the rest of you.

Ok people I am using this site as my database, nothing more, I am sorry if it messes with some rankings. That was not my intentions. I simply was wanting all MLB cards from each team in an easy to reach place. I DO NOT own all these cards, I was simply using them to build my spreadsheet. Since all of you people have a problem with me using a database as a database, I will simply delete my collection
Sorry for the troubles
