    I can make a rank system. I've been making rank systems for over 9 years. I just know that you want them to make it for you. There is a difference.

    I don't believe you have the experience to be able to make a complicated thing like persistent stats work in COD2. It requires more than a knowledge of making simple mods. It requires experience running a dedicated server as well. This is because the only way to get a rank to persist past you disconnecting and then coming back to the server at a later date is to use COD2's file functions: write an rank event to data file, read it back at a later date. This requires you knowing how to use dedicated servers because it wont work on a local/Listen server. The file functions don't work properly on local/listen servers.

    As I said above, as I don't believe you are experienced enough in modding to take on such a complicated modding task, it would be unwise to even start trying to help you do it, because you will not be able to finish it off. It would end up me actually making the mod for you. And I don't have either the time nor the inclination to do that. And I believe it would be the case for anyone else thinking of trying to help you - they would end up making the mod for you.

    If you want to make a simpler rank system which doesn't require persistent stats, I would be willing to help you do that. The rank would only last for each match/game. As soon as you rotate to the next map, or start a new round, the data will be lost. Doing that is fairly easy to do.

    Just to let you know - I wrote the rank system in the Xtreme+ mod for COD2 back in 2006. That rank system doesn't have persistent ranks, but it does have killstreaks which go with it - artillery, airstrike, and napalm strike.
