I would say first that it's not really a question of not being satisfied. Having something you earned taken away just bites. Yes, the doing the quests for 0 rep also bites. But isn't that a choice based on the way you play the game? For example, Kat has done nearly all the side quests and gotten the rep for them. That's just the way I chose to play. For other pirates the choices are different. Giving post credit based on the way you play the game doesn't make sense to me. But then, I don't as yet have a Pirate Master, so I don't know how the way I played with Kat will change the way she levels at the end.
For reference, I have 6 pirates who have not even started the pearl quest. One is doing nothing at all but sword work. He has yet to even meet Elizabeth. One is working the Pearl Quest exclusively, no side quests of any kind, even weapons quests. One I'm going to max weapons on before I do anything else. One I'm setting on a healer track. I don't know how any of that will change the way I earn rep at higher levels. I do know this is the way I choose to play the game. If later that comes back to haunt me, so be it. It's the way I want to play.
As for the rank thing, I rather like that. Say then that if they raise the cap to 50 you're a Pirate Lord. At 60 a Pirate King, at 75, (may the game live that long) a Pirate Legend.
