there are a lot of people asking about changing things on there servers. Many are wondering why the changes are not taking place. The reason is due to the ranking system. the question was answered by Tally and is posted here at FSPadmin: http://www.fpsadmin.com/forum/showthread.php?t=13414

If you use the Uber config file, even for one simple change to perk options, etc, you cannot run as a ranked server.
You will find unranked servers in the game's server browser in the same way that you find modded servers in previous titles - it will be a filter option. Enable mods in the filter, and you find all the unranked servers running.
Ranked PC servers will link to Activision's stat tracker. This will be free to use, so no trusted partners will be involved, and therefore no extra expenses just to run a ranked server.
I hope that answers many of the questions. This means you if your running ranked, you can,t disable weapons, change perks etc. To do those types of changes you must run unranked.
