Sooo... I pvp a lot, kill a lot of enemies, massively 'pwnzor,' and get some cool items.
... but then I go play Baldur's Gate II for a week, log back on, and see that my rank dropped and I can't use any of my cool items.
Which might as well be a non-factor for people who keep playing and playing and playing and playing and playing and playing and playing and playing and playing and playing and playing forever.
But I get and play new games, go to work, read books, go do other things, etc. for a good chunk of my time. I was under the impression that Blizzard was trying to lessen the penalties on casual gamers.
Summary: Rank requirement not cool. If you have the item, then you have reached that pinnacle and ought to be able to reap the rewards without trolling for fights for most of your play time.
