Rarity shows the age of a penguin, how long they have been playing. Sure it's nice to see the occasional Beta Tester but rare can really get annoying. I nottice a lot of newer penguins trying to annoy "rarer" penguins by goin "I am rare." so if anything rarity is a bad thing because newer penguins are insulted by it.
