Ugh no, It would only enhance the existing Metagaming. The Rank is useless and the system display should be limited to like 3-4 systems away. Everything further should be Too far or Sirius

Leave it as it is.

-Would make organizing things with indies so much easier, you don't have to have the nasty surprise of finding out The.Core in Omicron Delta actually isn't Core ID'd.
-Would make it easier to find things for the sake of pvp and piracy

Cons:
-Would encourage meta, however would it be any different to the meta we currently have?

also calling for backup would be easier too

Fitting something like "Synth Foods" into that little space might be tricky.
Yes, that is, legitimately, the biggest of my concerns.

People who metagame already know how to spot things based on ranks, and probably already have a good impression of "Oh, this name was a USI indy, oh this guy was a BHG indy".

If people want to metagame, they will, this is just making the rank section different.

I like it how it is, and would not like the change.

Worths trying. Yes for probation.

And what you ppl think about: keep the rank, but display affiliation instead of name?

Don't make them metagame more then.

Give this man a cookie.

Why don't we turn the server into a Free-For-All shootout mayhem then?

My two cents: I'd prefer it as it is. It works, it's not broken.

Of course there's a problem with Metagamers, and it is not possible to counter them. This however would give even another opportunity for metagaming, and even if you can't fight it, encouraging it is surely the wrong way.
