Sooo, weird, but my BPL Rank was 1.50 yesterday, and now it is 0.23… what's going on??? Lifetime member and regular poster, wilderness school attendee, spent a near fortune on BPL gear… I'm kind of upset.
Apr 4, 2010 at 8:35 pm #1594234You are the only one that can view your rank. They have been removed from public display and meant nothing anyway.
Apr 4, 2010 at 8:50 pm #1594237I know I know I know… it is meaningless, and being upset is irrational, but it is still visible… click on the Community Gear Lists link on the right…
:-)
Apr 4, 2010 at 8:57 pm #1594242More bad news then….it's not going anywhere. Mine dropped from 2.7 or so to .39 around January and just now made it up to .40
It is the true price we pay to be Lifers…embrace the pain.
Cheers!
Apr 4, 2010 at 8:59 pm #1594244Whoo hoo!
I had no idea that the gear list was in order by rank.
So at 3.11, I'd be in the top 20 if I posted a gear list!Now I gotta do it just so I can start pulling rank on nOObs!
Damn…top 20.
You just made my night James.It's hardly meaningless when you're a winner!
:)
Apr 4, 2010 at 9:02 pm #1594246Why do people always have to write noobs "nOObs" anyway?
(Just staying with tradition)Apr 4, 2010 at 9:02 pm #1594247Craig – Geez, do you have to kick a man when his rank is down? Don't you think the .23 is enough of an embarrassment?
Apr 4, 2010 at 9:13 pm #1594251Last time I saw a .23 it looked like this:
Apr 4, 2010 at 9:45 pm #1594256Hey, how'd you get that picture of me?
Apr 5, 2010 at 5:51 am #1594332LOL. Yeah, what it is to be a loser… Jonathan, glad I'm not the only one slammed by being a lifer! Are there any lifers in the top 50, I wonder???
Some of the 2.x and 3.x'ers have blank lists and, like, 3 posts. Soooo unfair.

That's what happens when you remove all incentive for them to keep you happy. You shoulda stuck with year by year. He!!, I'd pay month to month if they'd let me. ;}

Sure, but they've all got BPL Staff after their names. ;}
Apr 5, 2010 at 6:53 pm #1594617I have no way to post a gear list so I guess my rank is "0".
Member since August 24, 2003.
Jun 20, 2010 at 7:14 am #1621665Im gonna guess that you had a yearly membership and even though you bought a lifetime membership your yearly one expired. I have got a couple of emails saying my yearly membership was about to run out and yesterday was my last day and now my bpl rank went from 2.66 to .41.
Im never gonna catch Ryan.
Jun 21, 2010 at 9:14 am #1621896Imagine the BPL ranks are like a game of golf – – lowest score wins.

Excellent idea! All of a sudden, I'm kicking butt! Thanks Sam!
Jun 21, 2010 at 11:32 am #1621945And now I'm totally losing. What was I thinking!?!
Jun 21, 2010 at 11:45 am #1621953Click "My Account" at the top right of at least some of your BPL screens. Your rank appears along with other account information.
Jun 21, 2010 at 6:48 pm #1622157.55 Gone up a little since going down when I turned lifetime.
