According to a recent ticket reply from Frontier:
I noticed no ETA on this (other than "shortly"), but it is an official reply. So yay!

| "Hi Commander, Thanks for getting in touch with us. We will be implementing a patch server side that should restore your rank to the rank you have earned over the recent period of time. There has been an issue relating to reputation gains recently and the loss you suffered was part of a recovery process. Essentially all players have been experiencing accelerated rank progression over a recent period of time. However it has been decided that it’s unfair to remove the progress you have made, so we will be resetting the ranks gained shortly. This patch will be on our side, so you should not notice any interruption to service, you’ll just notice your rank has been increased to its previous level. We’re very sorry for any inconvenience and we hope this explains what’s been happening to your ranks recently." |
