This isn't World of Warcraft, nor RuneScape and the idea itself makes me... ehh.And the fact that even if you shine in public servers doesn't make you better than some of the skilled gather players, well, you get my point. It's impossible to make a reliable ranking system.
And Soldat servers aren't like MMO servers where the server is owned by the game company. What prevents me from constantly playing with bots in my own server with an overpowered WM and thereby getting a higher rank than the guys in TrenchWars who are lucky to go on long killing sprees? What are you gonna do for those who religiously play Zombiematch? ffs man you're playing the wrong game. This is SOLDAT!
I want a ranking system for members of the game.F12. No payers get no ranking.
*insert statwhoring post here*Just play a server that already has this, and your set.

People would camp and try to get as high K:D as possible without trying to win in any way, just selfishily upping their rank, ruining games. And people would also create problems of farming their name up, making fake clans. Maybe, maybe if clan only, because for everyone, the above thing happens, and even with clans, depending on how its implemented, the above thing happens. Plus, there are no actual profiles in this game, so it is already pretty impossible.
Any sort of mechanized system of ranking will always be inaccurate, any human-based of ranking is subject to malice. Unless you're measuring kills and deaths, but both are essentially meaningless

Humans are imperfect thus impossible to make any thing perfect
There are applications and stuff that will record stuff like this if you want.
I'd really not appreciate having my kill:death ratio recorded because it's usually negative : P
Plus, those people that say stuff like "oh I'm having a bollocks game" could cause problems with it..
Well, I'm assuming ranking is for skill, not kills or deaths. Kills and deaths are not skill alone.
