This wouldn't be fair for all of you, because I'd win.
A long time ago, I had fun setting my hours on my own server. I think last time I did this, I typed in something like 500k...

I have nearly 6,000 hours on Classic and I don't mind either way.

If someone has a lot of hours on any server, they'll end up getting targetted for their hours or arguments quickly degenerate from:

Guy with 3000 + hours: <says something logical>
Guy with maybe 500-1000 hours: LOL U HAVE NO LIFE OMG LOOK AT THOSE HOURS
Flock of idiots: OMFG 3000 HOURS GET A LIFE BRO GET A LIFE

Some people are just randomly targetted for their hours if someone is looking for a fight.

This isn't too big of a deal but if hours weren't displayed publicly anymore it'd be one of those things that would make the game nicer overall.

Players can be harassed for other things in their profiles like age, favorite quote, etc, but hours are something they can't take out or hide and it's kind of silly tbh.
if it isn't hours it will be items or something else, hours are not the source the problem.

Sure it is, when I was a noob I always wished I could have as many hours as the cool guise on the server. It was like a goal on top of other things. Milestones even.

Might as well hide kills and deaths cause I see this used more in arguments. "Wow kid, you don't even have kills above deaths, you really suck!"

I object to the no life insults. I have a life and have 10650 hours or something on Classic with my main account. People can harass me about it all they want, doesn't affect me in the least.

I have 4000 hours on N-pulse and I regret every minute I've spent on that downhill server.

If you have 4000 hours on a server you had to have enjoyed it at one time. The community changes, you change, that doesn't mean it was all bad all the time.
