:roll: ARe you kidding me? I have over 5000 posts and I'm almost doubling that number and yet I don't swear. What gives you that idea. Just because they have a large post count doesn't mean, they're a bad player, a rude player or anything like that. Sure, I have no life, but that doesn't mean I swear at people. :roll:

As for your case about being bothered for facing only n00bs or only high ranked players, I argee except for what the Horsemen are doing. IF you do it in usual games fine. But if you're going to callout other clans to challenge you, then you shouldn't put a point limit. -_- But meh, my opinion is just ingore the rank. :wink:

Comic boy is one of the ones who plays in my games Against new people and ancient warriors. He has seemed to maintain his rank. I contend he is one of the very good players on CC. I, on the other hand have drifted back pretty close to cook a couple of times. I do like playing all people. But love playing the lower ranked for reasons not readily apparent. They do things that make the game very interesting. Why even having 1 or 2 deadbeat can make it a completly different game from when you started. And the great joy they express when they Play well and know they played well and won.

Generally it's best to just not join games unless you're a higher rank them someone else already there. Or to play tournaments.

What you're saying is that you don't get that kind of behaviour in high ranked games.

Let's look at two different classes of people.

Class A-

People who play games with everybody will get x% of this sort of behaviour, and their score will be that much worse because of it. People who play games with everybody are what we'll call score neutral.

Class B-
People who avoid games with lower ranks won't have to deal with this sort of behaviour, so their score won't be reduced because of it. But if people of class A are normal (neutral) scores, then people of class B have an unnaturally high skewed score.

So when people of class B complain that they don't play noobs because it'd hurt their score you should point out that their score has been artificially inflated, that they don't even deserve it, and that they should STFU.

Thank you.

I dont quite understand what you just said qee, but I bet it was right on the money somehow. And what I'm trying to say is, that high ranked players generally dont make games as miserable (In my experiance) as alot of rookies/noobs do. I find this is because they are serious about the game and wining, don't make tatically dumb mistakes, and don't give crappy negative feedback when some else comments on their mistakes. Call me a dumbass if you will, but I think that high ranked players are just generally better opponents to fight with

Fair enough. If you have more fun playing high ranked players then do, but if you do it for the score then I've no time for you.
