Your player ranking is not accurate because you are mixing together players who have purchased or re-bought chips with those players who have never purchased chips. I think you should have an option to see the rankings of players who never have purchased chips. That is the true ranking of a player and his abilities.

Hi pokerbratt1, 
Rank here on Replay (as far as I can tell) is not meant to be used as a measure of poker skill or ability. Rather is is only a way to compare how many chips are in your bank with all the other players on Replay.
The statistic is poorly named in my opinion.
That being said, it is a probably pretty safe guess to assume that someone with 50 million chips is probably a pretty good poker player since purchasing that many chips would cost a lot of (real) money. Hope this helps…
Cheers!

Furthermore, most players with over 500M chips are really, really good looking

ok but on a more serious note, I think you’ll find most everyone ranked in the top 1,000 or so is a pretty tough opponent. certainly the top 200 contains precisely 0 easy marks.

This is why you have all the NASA fellas playing here…
How many chips you have has nothing to do with a rating or a players ability, it merely is a total of chips in your account. How you got them, won or bought does not reflect proficiency… there are as many weak players at the 1,000,000-2,000,000 tables as there are at the 5-10 tables…
Obviously this is a math thing, so it’s not surprising the donors find this concept challenging.
I have never come to the thought that players with 500 million are good-looking. That probably suggests the majority of us are not so good-looking, then
That aside, look at the biggest pot played at RP. A billion chips pre-flop all-in and accepted. That doesn’t indicate both players being players of standing and to be respected at the tables.
Having a certain amount of chips can be a good indicator of one’s skills, however, I would prefer to hold such judgement at the tables.
How many times have new players with no ranking come along and wiped the tables?.. Many.
How many times have maniac players built bankrolls to their tens of millions only to lose the lot? Many
Judge for yourself at the table who is a decent player, not by how many chips one may have accumulated.
Peace

very true
THIS SITE KEEPS STATS ON EVERYTHING. THERE IS A STAT ON POTS WON.THE PERCENTAGE OF POTS WON SHOWS THE SKILL OF THE PLAYER. THAT IS THE TRUE EVALUATION. CHIPS ARE JUST A WAY TO KEEP SCORE. IF YOU BUY ENOUGH CHIPS, YOU CAN BE AS HIGH A RANKING THAT YOU CAN AFFORD. POTS WON AT SHOW DOWN.DIVIDED BY HANDS PLAYED. I WOULD THINK A GUY WITH MASSIVE CHIP TOTALS IS IMPRESIVE, BUT WE HAVE ALL BEEN BEATEN BY LADY LUCK. JUST SAYIN
There’s no peace in poker. The idea is to win and to win at any cost.
The only useful stat really is “pots won WITHOUT showdown.” You want that % as high as you can get it 
do not have 500 million chips and am not good looking…and never made a hole in one on top of that…
I need serious help
