Include highest ELO ever reached for a game in players profile

[Hagardunor]

In present profiles only current ELO of each specific game is included. As ELO can vary with regard to luck or partners skills, it is not necessary a representative measure of one's skills. In my profile (and other players' profiles as well) I would like that the highest ELO ever reached in the game currently played or checked in one's profile is available

I would be very surprised if there isn't an existing suggestion for this.

I'm confused. Despite claiming you want a highest elo marker, you then make a good case for why it's meaningless.

I do not understand why

Yes, there is at least one : https://boardgamearena.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=51911

A player's historical graph already shows an approximate Elo pack for a given game. I'm not sure what harm there would be in displaying the number as well. It could even be a "premium" feature to entice more people to get premium memberships.

For what it's worth, there are sub-communities that do care about peak Elo as well as peak Arena score. What is meaningless to one person may be meaningful to another.

This is the older suggestion (2022) that I have found on this subject : Track personal high scores for games

But it may be not the older.

Another one from 2023 with less votes : Keep a record of your top score personal best in a game

As elo can vary thanks to luck/partner skills, the highest elo serves as an outlier quite likely to be caused by those very things. Factors that have less to do with a player's actual skill than external factors coming together.
