Player rankings - a question

[Agmen of Eladesor]

I know from reading the assorted tutorials on the wiki page and in Korrd's excellent posts all about the program used.

I'm just curious how things are weighted in figuring out who is what rank in the game, because total money can't be all of it. Is it also how MUCH money you've had in your possession at one time or another? Or is there some mysterious combination thereof between that, time in game, and other esoteric items?

Thanks.

Oh god... The end of days... Agmen agreed with me.

It is determined by your current worth(correct me if I am wrong)

Basically, how much money you have, and the price of your ship/equiptment/commodities

I believe it is simply total money as well as total resale value of everything on said character. A Battleship with 0 credits will be a much higher rank than a starflier with 40 million credits.

I'm pretty sure that it's your net worth, like on single player, which includes your money, ship, guns, shields, etc. It's worth noting that commodities don't seem to count in this, since their price changes from base to base.

The above is how it is.

(Commodities do come into it though.)

Anything I say is not intended as offensive, and to try and deliberately misinterpret it as such would be an attempt at trolling via misrepresentation.

It's not a conspiracy, it's localised bias. They're not intelligent enough to form a conspiracy.

Commodities are counted in there base value. (What ever that is.)

Really? What value would they have then, since most bases have different prices for them? The lowest while in space and the base price when you're docked there?

buying commodities lowers your net worth

wassup

Well that's what I was saying, their value doesn't affect your net worth, but since you pay money for them your net worth goes down until you resell them.
