I have searched the web and found not a smidgen of evidence that there is a way to view your TrueSkill rankings. I can't believe the statement that there is no ranking at all, because that would mean that TrueSkill is simply a useless lie concocted by the "powers that be" at Microsoft to confuse us into posting matter related statements on their website.
I thought it was stupid at first, but after hearing the arguement that it makes us play with less cheaters and modders make enough sense to convince me that I'm glad I can't see my rank. I love to play the game (any for that matter), and love to play against skilled and respectful players. This is in no way a bash on modders, because I am also one. But I don't mod playing live opponents. You were right call out the guy who put modders in bad light, cuz it is ignorance; but it wasn't said unfairly. Modders are often the cause of crappy games. There are people that can talk smack, sing during gameplay, or purposely leave the mic hot when they're talking on the phone or to friends... but there is always a game to put your money where your mouth is. Can't be done when someone is cheating. Staying to finish a game with a cheater means losing points in most ranking systems. The modders wins and the other doesn't. That sucks when your not the guy/girl who's modding.
Regardless of how I feel about the rankings... let me know if you ever find 'em. :)
