New Idea for ranking system

I know theres probably a post where one can suggest their ideas for a new Ranking System in Socom II. But I didn't really wanna do a search for "Ranking System" on this forum, so I'm just gonna start a new thread:

My idea for a new ranking system is a plus/minus system, like in hockey. When your on the ice and your team gets a goal, you get plus one point. But when your on the ice and the other team scores, you lose a point.

I think this would work in Socom because you wouldn't have to have all of the "Who-beat-Who" chess crap. When you team wins, maybe you would get 5 points. When you lose, you lose 5 points. Maybe a kill would mean one point, and a death would mean losing one point.

Plus when you get on the next day, you rank hasn't gone from a Captain to an ensign because its not basing you perfomance on an average or anything. Also, this is a way to track one's consistency. With the current ranking system, a guy could go on a tear and all of a sudden he's a captain. But then the next day he's back to a LT.

Of course, there would still be morons who cheat their rank up, but who knows if that will EVER go away.

This is just my idea. I didn't give it that much thought, but oh well. Fell free to shoot holes in it. (no pon intended)

And I'm just going to lock it. You must be really lazy because they are right at the top of the list of topics for just this reason. You have been here for a while, you must have seen them, every single time in this forum. sigh...
