as i've come to notice, those that play a lot, are good, and active certainly have higher ranks
sure there are those few that have stolen the position with high globals because they spam one mod
but i don't see a urgent, if any, need to change the elo system

if you truly believe that a rank decides a persons skill then making this for that reason is stupid
what i do believe it that creating a fair system with fair ranking is a lovely idea
yet as of now i don't think creating a working system that doesn't seem overbearing is possible

fist's idea is grand yet it limits play on certain mods and makes people forced to be active other than letting people play casually and at their own pace

sure grouping is possible but then it doesn't expose you to tactics and words of advice (from those that give)
the only thing i see that could work would be limiting alt rank gain
ynvaster proposed limits on certain belt ranks to keep them from farming mod/global rank
this is a fabulous idea if refined
i think that the main issue with the rest of the elo system is that of low belt alts/good people "stealing" them
imo you should all focus on that aspect rather than the whole refining of servers and ect
