It’s not about feeling good/bad about it (Destiny)

In Halo 2, visible ranks influenced the way people in played. Some people would delete accounts to reset their true skill rank to have an easier time climbing to the top. Some hired others to play their account or they paid for a cooked account. Others quit the game repeatedly to avoid accruing losses etc. Our reaction isn’t about shame, it’s that visible ranks change people’s behavior.

But in Destiny, you can’t delete your account without losing all your gear. Quitting repeatedly already bans you from matchmaking. Ranks still might cause some problems, but I’d be surprised if it gets as bad as the Halo 2 days. We’ll have to see how it shakes out.
