You're right, the ranking is useless, I'm thinking of getting rid of it, or at least making it much less prominent. The users page was there just to help people discover each other in the beginning, nothing more, nothing less. Now that we have channels this is not really necessary, in fact it's better if it's hidden.
The user ranking leaderboard is offputting to new users who have nothing to do with BSV. The first thing they will think is "Who are all these people and why should I follow them?".
This is why I've de-emphasized the user leaderboard and showing channels as the front page now. The first landing page you will see when you come to Powping for the first time is the channels directory.
