could b alot of things derbats, and probably the person is trying to rank a random gun, for the xp!? or theyre going against a hardened clan!? when im going against a bunch of yellow clan tags, even i can seem to suck!?

OP - You have no excuse the misspell 'Prestige'.

If everybody got good in this game, who would really be playing it a lot?

prestige is more of a time served badge not skill badge

Prestige != skill level.

KDR does not always equate to skill either.

I am 15/80 (and have been for a while). I also got to the original 10/80 very fast and did so not caring about my KDR.  lol when I 1st hit 10/80 my KD was 0.79.  From my stats you would think: This guy sucks, why is he 15/80, he must have boosted as his stats are crap.

TBH, I am not the greatest player, but I have have had decent killstreaks (I cannot get past 26 though... damnit), my W/L is not stellar, but is positive.  I am a team player and do half decent half of the time.

My KD has risen to 0.88 (still not great but you can see I can raise it if I wish), but now I am leveling shotguns and pistols so it is not moving up by leaps and bounds until I get better with them.

People who think that prestige = skill level (or should play certain ways etc...) obviously have yet to experience life.  Stop thinking like 12 year olds (whether you are one, or not). Play the game, have fun, live and let live.

I decided to flip it since I ordered BO2 and had an extra token.  I wasn't going to but what the hell, figured at least doing it once to open the challenges is ok.  BUT, I hate flipping it because getting to level 4 with the presets drives me crazy!!  It's so hard to do well with those retarded loadouts.

I only flip it once as I get way to used to having all of my big stuff unlocked and I play like crap for awhile because a lot of my tactics, I can't use because I don't have what's needed lol.  Oh well, just part of the game I suppose.

Trust me, I have seen some really bad guys that are 10+.  But then again maybe they were just screwing around or working on getting something done too, always possible.

So, since Im 15th prestige, you expect me to go flawless, get a moab or a high streak every game? Liven up abit! I only have 12 days game time and a 1.9KD. Yes i have more experience where the camping spots are how most of the maps work and the high traffic areas, but it doesnt mean ill go negative some game! Sometimes up against clans i do struggle, as they all have mics, i play with and without mine sometimes. I do have my very good, good, average, poor and shocking games but doesnt everyone? The guy/girl who the OP says went 9 and 36 might have been going through a bad game or just was doing something different? when i were 14/80 i used to RPG for fun. Ran around with the PP90 as it has a quicker running speed etc and then whilst on specialist, swap to my RPG and BOOM! I usually go negative or just postive when i run around having fun. But isnt that what the game is about? Fun? aslong as the guy was enjoying himself, maybe raging a bit, then its fine, so what if youre a high prestige etc, you just put more time into the game. High prestiges doesnt always mean they are amazing players.

Somedays your the windshield , somedays your the BUG . This game is so random from game to game..Prestige dont  = anything.when the lag gods are against ya

The grind in MW3 is easy as hell.

Prestige =/= skill.
