Rank up...who cares?

I have been reading this site for some time, and it truly amazes me about the complaints about ranks, ranking up, etc.

I have a question, and I am not attacking anyone, but who cares?

I do not value my rank, don't care about it, and don't care if people try to rank up. I mean, what an absolute waste of time. I actually liked it when people could glitch with rank up rooms, etc. That kept them out of the games I was playing in.

My rank does not mean a thing to me, I play for the fun of it, as most of the players I meet online. The only thing that bothers me is the game-play glitches, like the auto-glitches, etc. Other than that, why would anyone care what number they are?

I remember starting a new name, dropping to ensign at the beginning and then using my friend's playstation, and not wanting to screw with his rank, reloading my old name. I almost got voted off because I was a butterstick. I have moved up to captain a very long time ago, so rather than go to the ensign rooms, I went to one of the open ones, where I was almost booted since everyone was a cookie or captain.

Well, I proceeded to have one of my best games, had 25 kills...and must have devastated their ranks for that game. Screw 'em.

Enjoy the game, forget your rank. Means nothing. Ever ask yourself, if you get to captain, what have you really accomplished?

Nothing. Nothing at all. Except you may have cost yourself enjoyment in trying so damn hard to get your wings.

Play in their world. Live in yours.

Sorry for the rant.

i have said the same thing everytime this is brought up, rank sucks. look at people stats for assuming how good they actually are.

Who even cares about that? Who really cares how good they are at this game? There is something outside there, called LIFE. Enjoy it.

What is this LIFE stuff? Is it a new glitch? Will I make Captain with it? Dude, right now I'm willing to try anything to get to Captain. I need the #1 spot. I rank ^ ALL the time and still can't get off LT. So if this LIFE stuff is a new cheat or something PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE tell me how it works!!!

caring about rank is teh gay. it's funny whenever i play good my rank drops....whenever i play poorly my ranks goes up. hehehe, it's funny. i love my ensign name so much because it's fun to get mvp with it.


i also love glitching, however i NEVER do it in real games, only GNK on my glitching name (which is also my ensign name) it's fun to find new stuff and get inside or on top of crazy junk.

There's a similar topic to this in the "Polls" section...

I stated my feelings on there....

If I find the link, I'll edit my post and put it in....

But not now....I'm busy at work...

That means ensign. The single bar resembles a butterstick.
