It is April's Fool, and this kind of system is set in this time of day and month that is why many users had been thinking this for a joke and in my opinion I can not think of a better idea whether this is a joke or a serious one, And I really think that Theymos is making a joke and at the same time thinking of renovating or innovating the forum site and maybe trying something out that can make the forum great again by establishing a new ranking system we should wait for now and have him explain to us if this is a new ranking system or just an April's Fool event, And I have seen A thread about this system if this is a new ranking system just check that out and see for yourself
