Making TK/Alche/Smith ranking points decay

[azurerogue]

Time also counters rankers who no longer play on the server.??Really, the rankers who want to stay ranked will - with decay or without it.??Every MMO ever made rewards older players (whether through levels, "leet" gear, previous experience with the game, metagame knowledge, community involvement, strength of guild, etc, etc.), I see no reason to change this with ranking.??New players can still do it - it will never be impossible.??

EDIT: I am also opposed to the idea because I'm proud of how many points I've gotten. I keep track of how many potions I've brewed so I can compare it to my /alchemist ranking. Losing those points, even over time, would just make me sad.
