Now i defiantly wasn't complaining when i got mine... but a little voice in my head defiantly said
"its to soon"...

Now i'm not sure if the points>>rank function has been updated with the addition of all these new challenges.... but i bet it hasn't...

If you consider the few hundred points needed between rank up, and how after God, you still need a good couple Thousand points to make the 5000 needed for personal rank... and even thats only avalible for EM's...

I'm not Saying Add more ranks above God...(Except maybe Satan)
But i defiantly feel there needs to be a few more filler ranks inbetween...
Let a person reach the rank of God at more like 4000-4500 points...

My thoughts :)

Einstein climbs to the top of Mt. Sinai to get close enough to talk to God.
Looking up, he asks the Lord...
"God, what does a million years mean to you?"
The Lord replies, "A minute."
"Einstein asks, "And what does a million pounds mean to you?"
The Lord replies, "A penny."
Einstein asks, "Can I have a penny?"
The Lord replies, "In a minute."

First off, placing 'satan' on a higher level than 'God' is likely to offend some people (not me, but I've seen the effect religion has on people. Creates a lot of disputes).

Let a person reach the rank of God at more like 4000-4500 points...

Secondly, and most importantly, why the hell do you care? Do you think that putting your hbh rank on your resume will somehow be less effective now since it's easier to obtain than it was when there were fewer challenges? (hint: no, nobody cares. You wont get hired based off your hbh rank, so if I just gave you the idea, dont try it)

EDIT: I changed my mind, do try putting your rank on your resume, it'll be funny.

Hey, if you want a different rank, just apply for EM and meet the required amount of points (I think you need around 5000 points).

It was only used to make a point, ie at the end who gives a shit whether you have rank of God or HBH guru. you should be aware of your own skill and that is it, end of discussion

Yeah... Satan being better than God, I imagine, would cause many disputes...

As for the job thing..... Lol...

I'm looking for one, 'cause I want to save up and get a car.. :)

I might try it and see what they say... Of course..
I wouldn't be expecting to be hired.. duh...

Probably would be kind of funny.. :D



I do see what you mean, there being a big gap... but it doesn't really matter too much....

I personally still find it amazing that even now in the 21st century on a computer exploits forum...
That 1 line has become the center of debate....

All I'm saying is that unless it'll help me with something useful like getting a job, I seriously dont give a shit whether my rank is "uber fricken leet one" or "dumbass".

Yeah, that is amusing. You'd be amazed how often people repeat the exact same comment as someone else.

I would like to talk a min about the ranking system and challenges in general.

First off, your rank in no way determines the abilities you have as a hacker. It is however a seperation of people, in which to rank up, you must complete answers to distinguish the time you spent on the site.

Secondly, as one of the few people on the site that has completed all of the challenges other then a few of the others, find them to only help if you want them too. Trying to first understand what they are asking then actually taking the time to read about different topics may enlighten you on a few things that you might not have known about before. Some however are off the wall and so unrealistic that you would never figure it entirely out without some sort of directional push. Now dont get me wrong, I love the challenges, they are interesting puzzles that are fun to solve, but they dont make me a better hacker or computer savvy then others on this site.

Also I would like to clarify something that was stated... I was able to edit my rank before 5000pts while I was an EM. So Im not entirely sure where that came from.. (unless it was a combination of points / forum posts)

Either way the ranking system doesnt mean a whole hell of a lot, I completed the challenges because I enjoyed them. They gave me something to read about. Pushed me into a focal area to research. My knowledge has greatly expanded by spending time working with the challenges. That is what they are for, not your 'god' rank, nor anyother rank. Do it for you, and not for others.



I'm sorry, I cant hear you over the sound of how awesome I am!

Well put. There are a lot of people here who need to read this.

I can't help but feel like this whole discussion has come up before... when God rank first spread through the community like wildfire. I was there when it happened, and I have the same opinion now as I did then: Who cares? I've known Elites that knew much more than "God" ranks... but, the main thing to realize here is that there's no reason to infer a gauging of your ability from a higher rank than another. I'm sure stdio said this in a different way... but, I just said it that way. Oh, well.

That's a good point... the challenges should teach a set of principles so that we can advance in our "hacking" knowledge, not repeat the same old "check source, inject, find the hidden meaning, or it's just off-the-wall" formula. This is the only interesting part of this whole thread to me.

That being said... feel free to PM me with what sort of challenges you feel would be useful.


I still check PMs from time to time.

Hey zeph, since you brought up challenges, you should talk to Root_op about mine, considering you are an admin now.

In the future, PM me about it (as I stated when I brought up challenges in the first place). Don't OT in a thread without putting something on-topic.

But they are fun.


The only think that matters about rank is every time you go up a rank, your penis gets bigger. The reason that there is a big gap after "God" is that your penis will become HUGE when you get 5000 points. End of thread.



What is it with you and penis's... seriously? stop steering my thread towards penis disscussion!:vamp:
