probably get told this is a stupid Question..

but playing BF2, gain points = higher rank..

but, if you keep loosing points dramatically through TK's etc, would you go down a rank?

No. It's been tested and tried. Although there is a "You have been demoted" line in the Localization files somewhere (might have been removed in later patches though)

I recall someone being demoted back in 05. When I was just a colonelcorperal or something. Saw something along the line of <Insert player name here> has been demoted.

It says that when a mutiny vote is succesful, ie [Commander's name] has been demoted.

But I only started playing in 2006 so maybe it really did happen

Yeah, my understanding is that was the point of the demotion sound file

You also can't go under 0 global score...tried it

Say they were once a gunnysarg with 25000, but then their stats got reset as the reslt of padding/glitching etc. they keep the rank but not the badges/points/medals

Global score can never go down.

Get an in game negative score and your global (overall) score will not change.

You do not loose Global Points.

If you ended a game with -20, your Global Score will not change- If you have negative points, disconnect and connect to a server again, you will have 0 points. Likewise in the ingame server browser, any players with "-" points, will show as having 0.

So, because of this, no you cannot go down a rank

Also, because of this, you can get a gold medal with -500 points (if everyone else has 0 points or less too )
