Any chance of implementing graphical representation of your Hall of Fame standings? Would be nice to see how you rise and fall over time (just as has been done in your personal profile on all the various data there).
Following on from another post around suggestions for fights.... (https://www.torn.com/forums.php#/p=threads&f=4&t=16206438&b=0&a=0&start=0&to=21134453)
How about bring CE in to the battlefront. Essentially create a function where those with high CE have a % chance of a random Mobster NPC joining the fight to help out. I mean if your a crime lord, you'd have goons right?
Why? well this function would reward the well rounded torn player as opposed to just the cashed up gym junkies. Clearly the NPC would be weak, but his distraction level and the odd hit would improve your chances so it would have to be balanced right.
No reason the defender couldnt call in a goon of his own mind you.
This could also be functional in gang attacks, 5 average stat, high CE players gang attack someone, and the likelihood of a goon or two spawning into the fight would go up dependent on the aggregate CE of the 5 players.
Just an idea to consider, on the surface I think its in keeping with crimes, battles, mobs/factions etc. Thoughts, suggestions, limited flames...?

Wow this degenerated.
To be clear, the racist comment was a joke. You know as a way to open the question of why is this happening.
Had no idea torn tools wasnt kosher. Thanks to those who provided an answer, and good luck to those who provided drama

Excellent work done by this troop. Got my 500 kill streak done nice and fast, about 6 hours. No mess no fuss. Hits started rolling in a minute or two after transfering the funds, very satisfied customer

To add to the data pool on this one, here are my results. having had all merits, book, and candle shop all active over the month.
Item Value (212): $614,773,003
I didnt start recording daily updates until Awareness week started, daily results below. Interestingly, just eyeballing it it doesnt seem that there was any significant increased chance during the week vs not during that week. Perhaps due to the massive boost of the book?

Not all schools or school systems are the same, and like any organization, they can be prone to corruption, and pushing an agenda.
What happens when that school you send your kids to starts spouting political garbage, or religious doctrine you dont agree with?
If education can be provided without any agenda other than instilling knowledge, then great. But time and time again, across countries and history, education has been used for political, financial and control purposes.
So if you can remove corruptions such as these, and keep in mind not all people learn in the same way, then great. But keep in mind some of the greatest minds did poorly at school as it did not fit their approach to thinking, and from some, school is traumatic because they weren't able to leave it.

Torn fact: Back in the day Torn City lobbied to start a military pact with other strong city nations, The motion was put forward for it to be called Torn-Nato, The motion fell apart, it was a disaster.

Looks like blame-responsibility dyad at play here. Would be a really simple issue if only 1 person had made 1 mistake here.
Reframe:
If I hand a murder a loaded gun, I cant be shocked if they shoot me, and arguing I didn't know they were a murder doesn't change my fate. But it might get me support from others if I cry fowl that he shouldn't have shot me just because I gave him a gun.
Unsolicited opinion:
I'm guessing the OP is understandably pissed about it, and is blaming Atler, and it wont mater how much responsibility Atler takes in the end, the OP will continue to blame him. So, it wont end .... unless, everyone involved takes their share of the responsibility. Lets face it, Atler couldn't have done what he did without the OPs contribution to the problem (the pics). But then, I'm guessing the OP never thought someone would do what Atler did; probably that sort of thing doesn't enter the OPs mind.
Meanwhile, people take sides based on their own views, while others see it for what it is, more than 1 mistake by more than 1 person.
Summary:
Pretty clear its not good acceptable, no one should get doxed or harassed (or shot by murderers for that matter).
