Rank (Major/Captain/etc.) still appears - just not for the top (i.e., latest) post in a thread (which is kinda weird). And yeah, that "rate member" item is a thinly veiled popularity contest. I can't imagine anyone on this board getting a poor rating (at least not anyone who's allowed to continue posting).

Edit: I should have read a couple more threads before replying; someone else mentioned the above in the thread "Off-Topic Q for Richard".
