I think they were asking how long should reaching the highest rank approximately take. For example, MW2 took about 2 days to reach rank 70, WaW took about 1.5 days to reach 65, and CoD4 took a little more than a day to reach 55. In that poll 24 hours won the vote. Now when the MP teaser trailer came out someone said something that gave me an idea. I payed close attention to the ranks of everyone in the trailer. I came up with a conclusion and posted a thread with this:

I compared some of the ranks seen in the video to the other CoD games and here is what I noticed:
Highest rank seen in the video is 41 and thats Brigadier General(one silver star), in CoD4 that was rank 43.
Someone was rank 34 in the video, that's the Lt. Colonel rank(silver leaf), in CoD4 that rank was 37.
Same with the rank Major(gold leaf), level 31 in BO, but level 34 in CoD4.
So we must be looking at less ranks than CoD4, I'm guessing about 50.

EDIT: OK some people are doubting this part saying I'm wrong. First of all, I may not be 100% right, it's just a GUESS. They could change it before the game is released for all I know.
50 ranks would put the approximate time to probably 24 hours for the average player if they don't increase the EXP needed for each level by too much. That's why I think that poll was the reason they put 50 ranks. They could still require you to play 24 hours to prestige, but I doubt it. I'm not 100% positive on this, but it makes sense to me and I just wanted to explain to the rest of you what I found and see if you agree.
If you read it all, thanks for not being lazy. :p
NP Carling26 agrees.

Personally, I agree with the original poster. When I first saw that poll, I didn't think it was a time lock, I thought it was them trying to figure out how many ranks they should put in. I also can confirm that he is right, and there will be between 50-55 levels if his theory is correct.

We might be safe on the Xbox side because I heard the new xbox update coming out before Black Ops will auto-ban jtags if they go online. Not sure if that was true though, I hope so. :p

Hahaha, yeah MW2 Leaderboards are so screwed now (thanks Derek :p) on PS3. Yeah agreed, but its nearly guaranteed that someone will find a way. Oh really? I was under the impression that JTAG's were undetectable. My bad :\

It's ok lol. I forgot about the PS3 split screen glitch. And no jtags are not undetectable at all lol. Once a jtag xbox goes online it will be console banned within hours. Then you have to buy a keyvault to unban it for another few hours.

Really? Why do they still exist then haha. Stupid in Microsoft's behalf, especially with a major release very soon.

Exactly haha, if Halo's JTAGable then Microsoft is pretty well screwed
anyway, back on topic.
Black Ops Prestige could be time-locked

Well, IMO, they could make it only 10 ranks and still take the average player 24 hours to achieve presige mode. Its all about how many points per level, and how fast they increase the exp req. for the next level. I hated how in MW2 you need like a bazillion points to level up in the higher levels even though there are a total of 70 levels.
I think it should take an average player a day and a half (36 hours) to prestige.
Also, i think they should make the beginning levels a require a little bit more exp so the later levels do not seem like an eternity.
