The difference between subject A and those people you are talking about is those people A) don't complain about freezing up on AR10, and B) don't compare cs5.2 at 1.0x speed to cs5.2 at 1.5x speed. My definition of DT farmer is someone who undeservedly got their rank and did it by abusing the overweightedness of DT. 2 months ago when I farmed DT to get my rank, I was undeserving of it. Fast forward 2 months and I now believe I do actually deserve to be where I am based on recent improvement. I'd like to think I've graduated from being a DT farmer.
DT remote control (current highest top pp song) is still overweighted though, DT as a whole is still overweighted for most maps.
It's not that "DT farmers" don't deserve their rank, it's that they are closer to their max potential rank compared to their skill than others that play no-mod or HR are, they aren't overrated, others are just underrated. If they really didn't deserve their rank, they wouldn't be there, it's not their fault, and they shouldn't be labelled as overrated or put down just because others can't or don't care about getting to a higher rank where they deserve to be, just because the PP system overweights DT.
It's the same as people that don't care about PP at all and don't bother retrying for FC's, They could be where others are if they actually went for FC's (in the other case DT), but they don't, and that doesn't make people that FC overrated, it just makes them underrated.
If you could be at a higher rank by playing these easy DT maps, then do it, otherwise don't complain about others being where they don't deserve to be, if you just don't feel like getting that rank.
