You're sorting by the "rank" field.

You're NOT organizing the list by rank.

I don't know if that makes sense. Anyway, it does the same thing in the admin panel. It basically organizes "ranks" (titles) by the image you use (number of stars, color, etc.). It really has nothing to do with your level of authority on the site. It's nothing more than a way to group people of similar rank together on the memberlist.

No, there is NO #1, #2, etc. So get that idea out of your head right now. I mean, yeah - there is that sort of thing unofficially (ie. I'm the founder so I'm "ranked #1") but there's nothing on the forums that can show you that. The 'ranks' you see there aren't really ranks. They're more of a 'title'. phpBB coders call custom titles 'custom ranks' in the admin panel.

And yes, asking this here is alright.

Hey.. I noticed now some ppl don't have ranks at all?? RRkiller was one of them.. Idk if accident or on purpose but.. thot someone should know if not supposed to b that way.

(and so that ppl don't think I still don't get fl00ds point he made to me about a month ago on this same topic..) what i mean is there's no Stars at all next to their name where other ppl do have stars..

That's because there are like 5 levels of "ranks" that are automatic (ie. if you have no special rank, then youre part of the default rank system which has five or so levels). And the first 'rank' has no rank image associated with it. The rest do (stars).

The number on the far left is just the sort order. And if you try to sort by registration date or anything like that, it won't be exactly right because we've merged with a few databases in the last few years ... so its not entirely accurate.

He was suggesting that something be fixed because he thought it was broke. And then I explained it wasn't broke and it just kept going. Let's not split hairs.
