omg yes, I forgot about NPCs, could be the clueless peon

maybe "blockchain expert" should be one of the lower ranks

oh with that we are going under the sub-level, underground into the lava of hell, the realm of shitcoineries.

We are talking about human ranks not sub-human ranking.

clearly there are shitcoiners on SN so that should be a rank or title and why not go lower

What if downzapping came with an option for the type of outlaw, or, the reason you’re downzapping.

Like for stolen content, spammers, scammer, they could be labeled stuff like “bandit” or “vagrant” “snake oil salesman” etc

could be part of private replies but instead of using them to help stackers, you use them to reprimand them

yeah for sure but better let them stay in the other realm Don't play with shit.

Where is assmilker?

that's not a rank, is just a leech. You do not give ranks to worms and flies.
