is there a slight possibility for getting an in-game damage dealt statistic system? I'm aware that you don't really want to do it but I never seen a legit response why you think it's a bad or unworthy idea. It could have been done twice:
Add a damage dealt stat near the kill stats in the scoreboards and
1.  show the damage done real time with one exception: when the target is not spotted, the damage done while the target is invisible won't be updated on the scoreboard until the target is spotted again or destroyed.
2.  show the damage done only once the target is destroyed, for instance:
Player 1 shoots Player 3 for 200 damage, scoreboard is unchanged
Player 2 shoots Player 3 for 50 damage, scoreboard is unchanged
Player 1 deals a finishing blow for 45 damage to Player 3, destroying him; scoreboard gives Player 1 245 damage and 50 damage to Player 2. No exploit at all.
I've told this idea in another thread and it crossed my mind why don't you want to make us something like this. So my questions are: were these ideas ever considered and if they were rejected, then what is the reason for that?
