I'm not sure how rating gets you placed in a division...

Let say if you keep a rating between 1500 to 1600 or whatever for 10 days or so, What division would that place you in?

There's always room for you, If you want to be my friend.

Rating has no meaning whatsoever, it's all based on who you win and lose against.

If you are consistently beating Onyx players, then you'll be Onyx. One win doesn't just make you rank up unless the other team was really high in truskill in relation to yours.

Rating doesn't mean jack -blam!- and hasn't for well over a year, thank Bungie for not widely advertise it publicity that people (like yourself) still don't know this.

Divisions are based solely on Win/Loss and who you Win/Lose to. Since you didn't get this when it was said to you before by someone else, I'll have to explain it to you slowly.

If you're Silver and beat Gold/Onyx players than you'll "rank up faster" but if you lose to Iron players, you'll drop in rank faster.

Every single pummel I have is unboosted.
I play GGL. (Grifball)
I hit inheritor 14/1/12. 16 months after release. I have a life fellas.
Every single killionaire I have is unboosted. 22 from grifball, 4 from LD.

What about past rank? Like me and my mate beat two S10 40% Onyxs, and we were only Silver and Gold respectively last season.

Past rank doesn't matter. Your arena stats are wiped after every season.
