Rank related Questions answered.

I only hope this will not turn into a competition about who can get to the Elite Rank first, It's still foremost a forum, and not a "getting higher level or rank" game, like an RPG.
Off-topic or mass posting that seems to have no other purpose other than to increasing postcounts is spamming and will be deleted.

For the site ranking. Are they the exact same as the combat ratings in Frontier?
No they're not. You only need 1000 posts to be elite here, but in Frontier you need 6000(!) kills. Yes, it'll take a while to get there. The list in Frontier goes as follows:

0 Harmless
4 Mostly Harmless
8 Poor
16 Below Average
32 Average
64 Above Average
128 Competent
1000 Dangerous
3000 Deadly
6000 ELITE
