A handful of new users jumped to the top of the leaderboard with round-number points in the millions. Disconcerting to legitimate and dedicated users. Suspicious and conspicuous. Current number 6, Yggdrasil, was in clear first place, at least for the last few months.

    hello, what do mean by 500 point for using the e tree sidebar? Also i have noticed a jump in the ratings and also thought some people are cheating.

    I've reported our concerns to the feeback team via the PC app, hopefully someone will pick it up?

    Ist mir auch aufgefallen, sind plötzlich letzte Woche dagewesen. Stürzte dadurch von 5k wieder auf 10k zurück, sehr ärgerlich...

    I also noticed this. Suddenly a bunch of users appeared with 80+ trees who weren't there before (or an insane amount of points but only 20 trees planted, fore example). It's nowhere near as bad as last time, but loads of people from the top 50 have disappeared.
    I'm not sure if the updates have just been terrible recently and it's only just refreshed, or if people exploiting it are being a bit more sneaky and thinking if they don't go for the top 3 they won't get noticed, but either way it's a problem and spoiling the fun a bit.
