Got it and done. Thank you for your help. At least this way I can manually change the order, that is, until a hack is written.

Well, I created a new column in my "ranks" table named "order_id". I then modified the "functions_ranks.php" file and changed the bottom section from

// #################### Begin Build Ranks PHP Code function ################
function &build_ranks()
{
    global $vbulletin;

    $ranks = $vbulletin->db->query_read_slave("
        SELECT ranklevel AS l, minposts AS m, rankimg AS i, type AS t, stack AS s, display AS d, ranks.usergroupid AS u
        FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "ranks AS ranks
        LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "usergroup AS usergroup USING (usergroupid)
        ORDER BY ranks.usergroupid DESC, minposts DESC
    ");

    $rankarray = array();
    while ($rank = $vbulletin->db->fetch_array($ranks))
    {
        $rankarray[] = $rank;
    }

    build_datastore('ranks', serialize($rankarray), 1);

    return $rankarray;
}

to

// #################### Begin Build Ranks PHP Code function ################
function &build_ranks()
{
    global $vbulletin;

    $ranks = $vbulletin->db->query_read_slave("
        SELECT ranklevel AS l, minposts AS m, rankimg AS i, type AS t, stack AS s, display AS d, ranks.order_id AS u
        FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "ranks AS ranks
        LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "usergroup AS usergroup USING (usergroupid)
        ORDER BY ranks.order_id DESC, minposts DESC
    ");

    $rankarray = array();
    while ($rank = $vbulletin->db->fetch_array($ranks))
    {
        $rankarray[] = $rank;
    }

    build_datastore('ranks', serialize($rankarray), 1);

    return $rankarray;
}

I just replaced "ranks.usergroupid" with "ranks.order_id".

I went to the "Update Counters" area in the ACP and updated the titles and ranks. It is still displaying the same way.

Ideas?
