Take a look at the Individual Player Score Page. Type in your name and select the arena type and tour number.

See all those categories?

Fill each one with something. Don't worry about losing anything because you can't. You're not penalized for anything you do. Your score will always get better no matter what. The quicker, more lethal and accurate you are the faster you'll score points.

Don't actually "dogfight".

Fly for kills not fights, soon you too could be a scoreboi. :banana:

The most important advice anyone can give a new player is don't play for score or rank as score/rank are meaningless.

I know that you think by having a low rank will mean you're good at the game but all it really shows that you are good at gaming the game and that's it.  That little nugget you posted about scoring your fighter sorties under attack to keep your fighter rank low is just an example of how you can game the game and does not in anyway indicate your level of skill, in fact, it usually points to the opposite.

Do yourself a favor and start playing the game for the fun of it and don't worry about what your score or rank is, no one else cares.
