I get your point, but do you think it's worse than it is at the moment? There is only a level balance right now and a lot of people are complaining about it. I think "cheating" would'nt be the greatest idea but it's up to them because you can't de-rank in spacetime that easy if you don't get attacked :-)
But at all i don't think it will happen anything about swb in close future so it was my suggestion what I would look for :-)
