This issue continues to be there constantly and every time a season is close to its end it comes back because you don't do anything to solve this matter.
How many times do people have to tell you the system as is now works exactly in the opposite way as you think and actually discourages people from joining rank arena, overall after it went cross server?
You have to find a solution about this issue if not polemics, rantings and complaints won't ever stop and queues times will stay as long as they are now forever because when you get access to the cross server circuit as soon as you are in the negatives you simply cease to click on rank arena as soon as you figure your negative points won't disappear because you have no way to rank up after kage for tens of weeks, so you simply forget rank arena exists.
My suggestions to solve the problem are the following for the case of people that never reached sage of six paths once:
First way: create a separate bracket for people that reached sage of six paths once.
Second way: change the code and give a +0 instead of -1 for a loss against somebody that managed to reach SoSP once. This way, at least, you get negatives only against people in your same situation.
Third way: reset negative points at the end of every season also for people that didn't reach once SoSP, but keep their rank. During the season i managed to reach kage? I'm now kage -14? at the beginning of new season I'm back at kage +0, while people that managed to reach SoSP once are back to ninja school student.
Fourth way: put a cap to negative points according to the rank. It's useless that I'm kage if my total points are lower than jonin. I should never be able to go under jonin points if i reached once kage and i still have to reach SoSP, so cap it at -6 for kage/jonin, at -12 for superkage, and so on.
Fifth way: give more points for a victory depending on how big is your negative point pull. Something like that doesn't matter how many times i lost but if i win twice in a row I'm back at +0. (I'm at -8? then give me 4 points per win up to +0 or +1). You could add a day reset for it so that if in one day i didn't make it then the following day i get points accordingly with my new negative.
These are five different and pretty easy ways to solve the problem of people that never reached sage of six paths once.
Choose which one you want, a compromise among two or more of these or solve it on another way, doesn't matter, but make a patch about it.
How rank arena is now is unplayable for the large majority of the population. If you want that we people that never reached SoSP join rank arena again you need to solve it. If not just be happy with rantings and complaints both from us and from them that have their queues never-ending.
