This is the mob mentality, it doesn't matter what sort of rankings you have.
To add to this, let's just say we did have a system like that. Silver and Gold players get into a rhythm in Expert Roulettes, expect certain things to happen on their runs. Then they go out into doing the normal roulettes, where a majority of the Tales from the Duty Finder come from...it generally would not end well. In a way, we have this already between hardcore/midcore/casual, but it might just become a bit more pronounced with the system. We already have a contentious issue with parsing - the system would be subject to similar heated discussions.
