Maybe 300 and below?
I was thinking it would lie in the mid 400s
Is a "shortstop" around 650?

I was thinking 680+ for shortstops. 730+ for pros. The water becomes murky when players get close to those numbers.

Agreed. Mid 400's is no longer a banger. They take the game seriously and are looking to break through their plateaus.

So what I’ve noticed with Fargo and APA is the following:
9ball
SL9 - Fargo 600+
SL7/8 - Fargo 550-600
SL6 - Fargo 500-550
SL5 - Fargo 400-500
SL4 - Fargo ~300-400
8ball
SL7 - Fargo 550+
SL6 - Fargo 500-550
SL5 - Fargo 400-500
SL4 - Fargo ~300-400
I only compared APA as it’s the most common and easiest comparison to use. Additionally the top SL has a huge margin. I’ve seen a Fargo 730 and 705 rated a SL9 as well as a Fargo 610. 8 ball is even crazier as I’ve seen a Fargo 550, Fargo 610, and Fargo 705 all rated as SL7. Getting back to the question though I think once you approach the SL4/Fargo ~400 you are considered more serious about the game. Pretty spot on with the range Fargo gives you.
What is the cutoff above which you are no longer a "banger"?
With a numerical rating system shouldn't we now be able to quantify such things?

400 is getting to C players, that is above what I would call a "banger". 200-300 tops.
The 300 description is interesting. I guess we play in different leagues. Our lowest rated player is in the 300’s, highest is 696. Average player in our league is definitely over 500.
Have you looked at the roster of your league or are you making an estimate due to a lot of unestablished ratings?
The reason I ask is we have a smallish BCA league here and about 20% of the players are 500 or above and we have been using LMS for a couple years so most everyone is established. 8 out of ten are below 500. Many in the high 400s.
I played in a larger league nearby a couple of years with about 400 players and their situation is about the same as here.

We have four in-house divisions with different team caps.
Tuesday 1600 - average rating 338
Tuesday 1800 - average rating 410
Thursday 2000 - average rating 428
Thursday 2200 - average rating 522
Easy-e is in a pretty populated area. Perhaps his division has a reputation for being where "the player's" go. Here is the game win% for a number of players in our 1600 and 2200 divisions. You can get an idea what kind of win% a particular player can expect in each division.
