whats the deal with people being unranked?

They haven't played any games, yet.

Be happy if you're their first match.

That means your rank system has a lag.

You can try using /rec or Wait 6 seconds before you press space.


My rank system lags, too,(3 seconds) WHERE YA GOIN', BEAUTIFUL?!

But you need a better ToriBash version or get better internet, maybe.

my rank is zero on my profile even

It's still lag, all you can really do is just wait.

Or like Omega said perhaps you just have really shitty internet.

usually, people who are unranked never played a game in multiplayer yet, or was banned and the ban just ended and they want to play active again.

try to close ur toribash and re enter it
