I am a little offended! Well just a little. I have just tried to join a game with minimum rank Captain. I am a Commodore in a couple or races so I thought that should be OK. But I elected a different race and I am told "This is an officers game. You do not have a high enough rank in this race to join this game." I am offended that the host thinks I would not be good enough to play with the other officers! Do even our Emperors need to start a new race with a game that is minimum rank nil? This sounds a little odd. Perhaps if this were tweaked a little it would also make it easier for some of the higher ranking games to fill up a little quicker - without lesser quality players playing.

IIRC you are treated as two ranks below your max rank for other races. So starting from Vice Admiral one should be able to join pretty much anything

@Smn,

> you are treated as two ranks below your max rank for other races

That's the way it's supposed to work.

They start with a rank of Midshipman, but they join games with an effective rank of Vice Admiral.
