Why are Yahoo Chess, Chess players so concerned with their ratings?

They will do ANYTHING to achieve 2000+ even if it includes cheating, and the people that are 2000 are too scared to play a game over 1 minute long and they simply win their matches by Time control. The numbers are meaningless if you don't actually earn them. if they were given 5000 it wouldn't matter they STILL can't play chess.
