The whole rankings issue is something I don't really care about.
As already mentioned, most of the people who have a high spot of the ranking have long quit the game or moved on to another character. And honestly I have always thought people who have abandoned the game or their characters shouldn't be able to keep such an honorable spot.If you have a high ranking spot in the game, you should actually be playing said game.
Furthermore, Rankings haven't mattered for years. Hell, from what I know(haven't bothered checking) they're still broken. The top 5 in Renegades, for example, are all known for not exactly playing the game according to the terms of service. Hell, most players these days are leeching off hackers or using glitched maps for everything. You guys honestly respect anyone who does that?
Then why pay attention to the new rankings? Because that's sure as hell all we are going to get. Rankings are now irrelevant, and the level cap of 200 was a joke and if anything people should be whining about the power creep and such making it too easy. That's what made your level and rank worthless in the eyes of the community, not the new level cap.
You should pay attention to what we're actually getting; a chance to actually enjoy boss content since Unlimited made it downright impossible to participate in runs for a majority of people.
