Petition to Rescale Ranks

(is this the right place for this topic )

For those of you who remember the old boards, there were 29 ranks. Here, the post requirements remained true to what they were on the original boards, and no one has passed 18. It seems unlikely that any ranks beyond 20 will ever be reached, given the activity here, and I for one would like to see the old high rank icons in regular use. Thus I propose we rescale the rank post reqs to have Alien at around 30,000 posts, so we can have users spread amongst the higher ranks so we can actually see what they look like in action. 

AP made a topic with approximate post reqs today, perhaps a rescaling could take the form of a third of those number or something. The requirements for rank 16 have already been modified by 1000 here, so it's not like we're too dogmatically adhering to the old ways... I think a change would be refreshing.

Thus I am petitioning such a change. Please comment your agreement or disagreement!
