Good idea. It's annoying how you lose your spot as soon as you click away. There is a trick to stay in the level slot forever though.

This would be nice as well. I don't get why we have to wait 10 whole seconds to kick guild members or delete levels.
The daily level deletion limit is also pretty annoying.

I don't see the point of this. You can always clear the search bar, and the Search tab will be empty the next time you go to it.

This has been brought up before, and there are situations where this isn't viable.

Perhaps this could be done by having RNG roll after players have queued into the lobby or have all pressed play. I imagine this would only delay loading by a few seconds. If you don't wanna do that then maybe just give the winning player an EXP bonus if they win and already have that item.
Yeah, I'd like to see the EXP prize be added back in if you win a part/hat that you already have. It used to be a thing, but I think it was removed due to botters abusing it.
That might be why Volcanic Inferno by Pounce has over 337 million plays.

This would be nice, but such data is not recorded so it will never happen Frown

I think this will make things confusing since it will be a lot harder to keep track of who's who. It also makes it easier for people to steal someone else's username and impersonate them, so I don't think this will happen.
Usernames have been changed before, but only in exceptional circumstances.

The exponential becomes frankly ludicrous after level 30. Maybe alter the formula up to Rank 50 and then leave the default formula after that so as to not ruin the lives of the people who have been simming for the past 10 years.
Rank 50 isn't very high since EXP is easier to earn than ever before. You have the Welcome Back Bonus, Artifact EXP bonus, huge EXP prizes from contests and much more.
Someone once went from Rank 39 to 51 just from playing a single contest!

If you are worried about accidentally clicking it, you can just save your current style in a loadout and load it if you accidentally randomize your style.

IP checks are already in place to limit IPs to one vote per week.
You can check out the Platform Racing 2 Server on GitHub if you want to learn more about how certain things work.

LotW is not based on the 5-star level rating system. It is a separate contest featuring user-submitted levels.
