Ranking System.

[Dreaming Of Pandora]

Dont know if this has been suggested before so apologises if it was.

In one sentence: Can you remove the ranking system?

I always thought that the ranking system always added a hierarchy to the forums, like, people with a 'Toruk Makto' rank indirectly makes them a "higher-level of user" to people with lower ranks.

Right now, Im a 'Sky Person'. That doesnt make me feel all that important to ToS in comparison to higher-ranked users.

If making people feel high and mighty with their Toruk Makto rank isnt the purpose of the ranking system then what is?

Sure, there's quite a bit of bias from me since my post count doesnt even step into double-digits but if you want to get more users to stay here, they should be equal in ranking (nobody's a more special poster than another).

I know it's not your intention to create (a sort of) hierarchy in the forums, but the ranking system inadvertently has that effect.

Please take that into consideration.

Thanks
