Ok here is how you do it. You have a beginner server where the physics of the game are easier to deal with and more forgiving. Like for example; no fall damage, bigger splash area, easier to move with terrain, generate speed easier, etc etc. New players can play the game and have fun while learning some basics, pros can enter the server but really it will not be much fun since a lot of the characteristics that make pros "pros" will not come out in the beginner server. Lets face it the urge for some to go into a newbie server and show off are irresistable, however the server will be kind of like an equalizer of talents and abilities. If someone thinks they are good and acquired enough skill they can take it to the regular server where skill is key to play and let the chips fall where they may.
I like the idea of a ranking system, however the pitfalls of everyone voting on one another sounds like a nightmare. I remember before IA went down they just put up a site to track your kills, caps, MAs etc. That would be a good way to rank players and its honest. If you dont get to play as much as others it doesnt matter because the rank would be based off of averages ( like average grab speed, MAs, caps, returns etc ) not just how many kills you have acquired.
I never played Tribes and came into Legions as a noobs right hand man. I kept at it because it was hard but a lot of fun. When I saw guys pull amazing grabs and crazy manouvers I wanted to do that to.
