Technically, when you avoid being ranked you don't avoid being ranked entirely. See Marx's Laws Of Status Illegibility
It's intuitively sensible because even if you're unranked you know you're not the Alpha, therefore you have some sort of rank. You'll probably still have to play some status games.
