I finally achieved the rank of sgt major the other day. This means I have all the unlocks. I also have alot of the ribbons/medals/badges that are 'achievable'. Is it still worthwhile to play ranked servers? There are alot of smacktards in ranked servers....I have encountered many. The times I play unranked, we seem to work as a team more.   

Any thoughts?

I like teamwork, as you make a difference on the map. It's more fun than solo-ing as infantry. And usually you die less in a squad, which makes it fun too of course, but I just like teamwork and owning the place. (like capping the airfield within the first minute on wake (Squadleader takes f35b, jumps out at airfield and whole squad spawns on him)! So I voted "because I like working as part of a team".

About unranks, don't know. Haven't played on them anymore for a long time.
The fun part on ranked, if your team is teamwork and the others are smacktards, you own the place and win every single round. Which makes it still worth playing on ranked, but it's usually more fun if you know some people.

I squad lead for team work, flag control and going for the win every time I play. Seldom do I join a squad, unless I know the squad leader.

@iPoon: he clearly didn't do that manual
@Des.Kmal: if I remember correctly you can google for a bbcode bot that let you choose your gradient colors and apply it to your text. What the tool is called I can't recall, but try searching a bit it has been mentioned before.

Usually, when I join a squad on ranked servers we never play as a team. For example, players are scattered, the leader never gives orders, we do our own thing. That's just my experience though. It doesn't mean that's the case for everyone who plays in a squad.

That is the link between the poll and thread topic. I thought that was pretty obvious.

Null. All of the above. It's more fun to work as a team, so we can take down flags/silos and go for the win.  Since I'm in a squad, my medics will revive me, I won't have to walk, and I won't get switched.  Ranked all the way, it gives people motivation not to screw around.

There's no 'all of the above' option, so I went with 'because teamwork is fun'.
Since, quite frankly, when you band up with a couple of squad-mates and a few hangers-on to go try and turn the tide in an infantry assault on the Karkand Hotel when everyone's scrabbling for the warehouse district, you get his incredible buzz of schneakyness.

Also, a squad lets me rack up points in support roles. Medic, Support, Engineer, all good for point-whoring. It even decreases the chance of being snuck up on and fragged, or artied at a cap point.

I voted for "spawning at the front lines saves you walking"

Playing ranked can be a mixed blessing. Some of the time you can just sit back laughing at how low skilled some of the players are, and sometimes it can be a real challenge when you have players who know the meaning of aim. Generally, however, you learn nothing from ranked and teamwork is non-existant.

Playing unranked (specially Waib servers) increases your skill and teamwork dramaticly. No snipers, no useless kits, just people who ARE pro playing together and owning. Be warned, if you are part of the "Bunnyhopping is n00b, medic n00b, no unlocks n00b" club then you will most likely have a mental breakdown upon your first death.

Just my thoughts.

When I don't snipe I usually play alone anyway.. I create squad.. go for flags and hope someone will join me.. It's logic for me to be a squad leader because I'm cautious and don't die as often as my squad members so that brings the best results.. I simply let them die first.. they always can be ravived or spawn on my position again. But because usually noone joins me I go for sniping and have fun.
