At higher ranks, there are basically 2 combat reputations: Insane and Laughable. There should be more combat reputations so people can tell the kind of strong from the very strong without checking the kills-deaths directly which wastes time.
Kills-Deaths 321-640 Reckless 641-1280 Crazed 1281-2560 Crazy 2561+ Very Crazy
-50 to -100 Pitiful -101 to -200 Pathetic -201 and below Worthless

Combat Reputation means nothing. I've seen Laughable players with crazy ships, and glass Insane players.
It wouldn't be long until people catch up, anyway.
-1.

-1. Nothing wrong with having another cool title next to our name  Names can use some work but +1 to the overall idea.

+1, a simple aesthetic that takes minimal programming. I'd make a high numerical range of categories ( +/- 20k) that all but the most dedicated PvP players would struggle to achieve in a year. Five additional categories in each direction would be fine. When you see a "Godlike" (or whatever) with 10k kills you know you are dealing with a leaderboard ship.

Combat reputation means nothing, i was laughable and killing higher ranks for a day, all "insane" and a few hours later i was insane myself.
Would be good ONLY if theres a formula that used rank/kills/deaths to calculate the reputation (and not the stupid static numbers above deaths to get a rep up)

How can anyone -1 this suggestion unless its just to be a d***? It doesnt hurt the game in any way. Who cares if rep has nothing to do with your ship strength?

-0.2 it serves no real purpose whatsoever, so there is no real plus IMO. I don't care much for aesthetics the minus is under the concept of "Dan can spend his time better doing other stuff". It's not a full -1 because this really does require very little programming. Nevertheless, I see all negative and no positive.

Nevertheless, I see all negative and no positive. True, but I'm sure this is something Dan could pull off on his lunch break. As for aesthetics if they were not somewhat important this would be a "text only" game.

What if... there already is one, but no one has achieved it yet?

Well personally I'd like to see Dan spend his time on something I'd like better. The moment this is implemented, I'll already be 2-3-4 away from the best combat reputation, and it wouldn't take me long to catch up.

While I see nothing wrong with this idea and do think that it could add something to the game if done right I would rather Dan spend his lunch break uping the cap on the troopers, blades, and DAC's. But that is just me.
However if Dan did do something like this I really hope he just extends it like he did with ship size that one time. Giving us something more to work towards. You may all not be that kind of player but I and several others would work towards getting a better rep just because its something else to do.

I was thinking about this the other day. Rather than have sent numbers have kill to death stats so like 1:8 Crazy 1:10 Lord 1:12 slayer 1:15 master 1:20 Reaper I also was thinking about not only having a 15k raids and 15k hack medal and title but also having ones for kills. 2k, 5k, 10k 15k and a title for any one who gets 15k hacks raids and kills. maybe a cool ship skin to. add more to every thing not just combat rep. I also think the battle should have more then epic legion . maybe add. demi god, God , god of war ,death and Grim .kinda thing so any one who has a good 20:1 K2D and alot of battle will read as Gim Reaper.
