Due to some issues with the ranking system, I've disabled it for now. Code hacking just isn't all that. They're not gone forever, just until we can decently implement the feature.
 
People hack the code to get higher ranks?

Did we really have to sacrifice the ranks for THAT?

when its back up do we hafta re'earn our ranks?
i don't frequent here often (unless bored :p ) and i made First LT.
PLZ tell me we get our old ranks back
 
Guys, don't worry about it...

the question about whether we would get our old ranks back:

Yes, unless all the post counts are somehow deleted in the process (Highly unlikely)

A problem with hacked code (more so if you don't understand all of what you are doing) is that a million little problems show up and then you have to fix that, then a 100 million even smaller bugs come up and you fix those, this keeps going until the bugs are so small that no one notices

It's really no big deal guys. They were fun, but not crucial or useful in any way. They'll come back when they come back. 'Till then, go with the flow.

Hehehe. I love it when people say, "they're gone for good?

," and the question has already been answered with a "No" in the first post. Cut Kris and the superiors some slack. This is their work, they have to dirty their hands with it, so we don't have to. Code is nasty.

Heck, when you think of a better signature, tell me.

Knight: I didn't say anything about my prob till after the ranks were removed (it was annoying, but I didn't really care).

However, the problam was over after the ranks were removed, so I guess it must have SOMETHING to do with it

At least the CZ doesn't have to go offline (I hope).
