This is really starting to bother me now because it's causing huge fluctuations... can anyone tell us what is causing profile prestige to zero out (but not be reset... just go down to uncalculated) after a player hasn't logged on for a day or two?
It's causing massive fluctuations in fleet score... PB's gotten robbed of almost 800,000 prestige, Evil's been zipping back and forth between 1.5 and 1.6 mill, and GTN just went down 400,000 overnight.
What the heck?!

Hmm. Maybe that's it, but shouldn't all the profiles stay at maximum during this free trial?

well I want those unsubbed players to have zero pres (if they are not on a server of course) that way we can see who is subbed

you used to keep your pres as long as you didnt log in, it wasnt recalculated.
now it seems seems like 2 different processes are fighting for profile calculation

bigwolf if you would have read the text dem has written..then you would be able to answer your question by yourself and so you wouldnt ask it.
and again then quadmillions time
your prestige will be zeroed out
NOT your stats.
Just the Prestige wont be calculated.
As soon as you resub AND join a server your prestige is calced again
and the next person who asks here in this forum what will happen or why does he have 0 prestige since he unsubbed will be beaten up in lobby with emote spams 
EDIT: i hate my spelling

I second this... My fingers are getting worn down to the nubs telling people to log into the servers to get their prest recalculated.
