What will ruin this mod?
nowhere:
They'd have to store the rankings somewhere, or else it would just be server specific. You'd level up on one server but it wouldn't transfer over to other servers unless Valve stored it somewhere. Also, then there's all the problems of how to calculate rank and there'd be no way to stop people from just going on a server with friends and killing each other until their rank went up.
Jonathan [Spider]:
storing that information on valves servers wouldn't be any worse than the amount of information they currently have. i wouldnt be suprised if valve already tracked a lot of that information already for demographic purposes.
and calculating the rank would be simple, just clock the hours played per session per day, and kill to death ratio.
and it wouldn't matter if friends killed each other all day to boost their rank, the whole point is to keep a set of easy servers for people who dont play as often, and keep the more hardcore competitive players a place to only fight against the top players.

when i was playing i saw someone using speed gear and it slowed up my already slow pc. >:(
FlyBMXer4130:
I think what a lot of people call cheating or "hacking" is due to the server's ass-backwards settings at sometimes (WNx much?). The way I understand it, is that it's set to (basically) one hit kills, unless you have body armor which isn't affected by a server-specific damage factor.

or it could be on LTK
