You would know what the purpose of a Fame system would be if you had actually played the game. Other games post 2002 started incorporating fame systems as well because *gasp*..it's a good system and opens the doors for content based around your particular playing habit.
This is where I get to call you a presumptuous c**k and illiterate, because I asked for justification and purpose, and not what it was. There was no justification as to why someone would want this system in the topic. I know full well what the fame system did in FFXI, because I was active in the game for 5 years.

This is why a Rank system (GC) is nowhere near close to what a fame system, they're 2 separate entities.
Please, if you would be so kind, tell me why the GC ranking system would not be able to do what the fame system did in FFXI? What is stopping the devs from adding vendor discounts and recognition for high ranking members, or quests that require higher ranks?
