Attention all 30's!!
I'm not sure who else noticed Robert Bowling's cryptic Tweet the other day about "Douchebags doing douchebag things in private lobbies", but it looks like I found the answer on Activision's Support site.
BEWARE!!
RANK RESET?
A modding group created a viral mod, which we prevented from spreading recently. Sadly, in 'protest' at our ability to disable this they are now inviting player's to private matches where they reset their stats. We have a fix for this in the works and are backing up player's stats so that we can restore them if needed. In the meantime avoid friend invites from ANYONE not on your friend list.

I haven't found this info on Activision's site, but MP1st also stated: "Don’t watch other players’ videos in the online vault. That’s how deranking is initiated, and has been spreading." (source:

Just wanted to be sure all 30's had noticed this...
I'm also (for one) going to be tweeting Bowling about his 'cryptic' and 'under alarming' alert to MW3 users... Way to let us know what's going on...
