While I agree with that, it's a lame script. I don't want it as a script. If I wanted to take the time to download a script to create that link, then I would already know how to get to see the ranks and the rank difference. This is for the general population. Not the script population.
At least, that's my take on it.

I agree. It could easily be done by a script. But it could just as easily be done by lack.

True, but as a script you may have an implementation time of one month or less. Compare this to Lack's estimated implementation time of 3-6 years and I think you have a good arguement for it being done through a script.
Though I also have to agree that if you've been around long enough to install a script, chances are you already know about the rank page in the instructions.
At the end of the day, I don't think I would support this idea. While I like it in theory, I would much rather see enhancements to the site like Decay to Neutral added to the XML, which would take little to no more time to implement than this rank suggestion. In a perfect world where there were monthly updates going on, I think this would be a great and useful suggestion, but as it is there are piles of suggestions so much better than this one that have been waiting 3+ years to be implemented.

It would make sense of some of these guys were actually paid for the work they do... But... its not a perfect world yet... and someone up at the top of the pyramid has to make money on the sight I'm sure...

Just Curious.. seems Lack needs some Lackies...
