I have been doing some searching today and can't seem to find the answer I am looking for.  I have seen dozens of ads for people renting ranked servers.  I have seen dozens of ads for buying a monthly reserved slot on a server.  I have seen an FAQ on EA's site about leasing a ranked server from them.  So my question is, I have my T1 and kick ass server machines, how do I get 'approved' to be a ranked server provider?  Is this an insider's secret or and I just dumb/blind/retarded?  I have the hardware and the connection and don't want to waste it on an unranked server.   Can anyone shed some light on this?

You cant.

Question
  Where can you find information and support for Official Ranked Server Rentals and Hosting?


  Answer
  To earn Rank you must play on an Official Ranked Server.  These are hosted by Electronic Arts and affiliates (for inquiries regarding the terms of affiliation, please send an email to bf2hq@ea.com); servers hosted by players are normal or dedicated servers that do not include updates in Rank and statistics.  Although you cannot host your own Official Ranked Server, you may rent an Official Ranked Server that will be hosted by Electronic Arts for you to ensure stability and security.
