Trial Best-time Records Need to be Reset

Having done some speed-runs of both the Law of Retribution Trial and the Jordas Verdict Trial, it seems to me that the times found on the Warframe website are not attainable anymore. Especially the Law of Retribution. Personally my best time is 24 minutes on a nightmare LoR, but the top time is half of that! Moreover, I looked at some videos of the top speed-runs and they used bugs in order to get their times. I don't think that this is a fair system for keeping accurate record of top times for Trials, where the top times are held by speed-runs using bugs that have been patched out of the Trial, making any attempt at these times futile. I don't know whether they should be reset monthly, after major hotfixes, weekly, or some other solution, but I think that any type of reset would add some more competition to the Warframe Trials, and would keep at least me engaged in doing them. Not only that, but the records are oddly formatted or incorrect, yet again warranting a reset of the best-time record pages (especially LoR).

Look at these times in the links for each Trial type, they're absolutely unattainable anymore!

LoR (Normal) - http://content.warframe.com/dynamic/trialStatsArchive.php

LoR (Nightmare) -  http://content.warframe.com/dynamic/trialNightmareStatsArchive.php

JV - http://content.warframe.com/dynamic/trialGolemArchive.php

If I can find videos of some of the top times, I'll post them here, so the bugs used to get that time can be seen.

JV (This isn't a top time as it didn't pass all flags, but some bugs were able to be used and get on the WF leaderboards):

The video below is actually how a speed-run of JV should go, but is still far below the top time:

Hmmm. As far as using bugs, that was aimed more towards the Jordas Verdict Trial times. With LoR (both types) especially, the records page is extremely broken and could do with a reset/overhaul. 

Yep jv is pure bugusing, but it doesnt count as a record with most bugs, but yes i agree that you can still get a good jv time with some bugs

I think another reason to reset the times monthly or bi-monthly is that the leaderboards get so clogged with speed-runners, that it is nearly impossible to stay on the boards for long. It would be nice to see them cleaned out every once in a while to rejuvenate speed-running the Trials.

Thats not a cheat though :p

Heh, the obstacle course 0.1s times are done through breaking the dueling room right? I think even if they reset those weekly, it wouldn't really change things. I think in order to  make obstacle course runs more legitimate, they honestly need to redo the room to match the new parkour. On topic, it might even be nice to include a separate board that shows all of your personal top runs at any of the Trials, but have the global boards reset monthly.

The trick is that you have a short time after activating the start console, you can roll backwards into the end line before you got teleported into the course, if you hit the right timing you can get 0.01s
