2. I understand there may be financial reasons why some players cannot buy premium. You don' t have to pay for the premium if you don't want to.
3. However, I noticed my rating dropped from 4.5 (I've been slowly building it up from 3.9 ) to 4.4 and wondered why...I played a 1vs1 with a freemium named 'iberico' who felt it fair to rate me 111 in a game that lasted 6 rounds and 3 days. I didn't miss a turn (though came a little close once) and though I lost I wasn't in anyway rude or offensive. My play was at worst average. A point reset as well as a short, sharp electric burst as he logs in again must surely be the only fair consequence.
4. (and as usual fairly randomn) Are most players only able to give ratings of 5's or 1's? I get 5's in games I have not won or come close to winning and in fact have effectively sucked; and I have got 1's from a player in a game I won quite brilliantly, if I do say so myself. So most players seem to give 5's if they rate at all. How sweet! Yet, I have given a 3 for gameplay when one of my opponents played ok but not too well. Later, I wondered if the said player was going to be incredibly offended by that 3. The rating, the rating!!! Anyway, it is a stupid system judged by the fact of, I would guess, 95% of the players have a got a rating over 4. Aren't we all so talented and nice? To wrench this post back to the topic at hand, I think any freemium caught rating in this way should, as well as losing points, have THEIR rating cut by one whole point.

That'll learn 'em.

I have never seen anyone anyone ask for a RT game, so it can't be all that common (I admit I am relatively new, but still...). Also, some freemiums (like me) don't get premium simply because they are a casual gamer. I rarely want more than four games at once, and I often only have two or three at once. Its not just because we are cheap.

I realize that a lot of this thread was meant as a joke, but I just wanted to put out my two cents.

There should be an option when the game is set up requesting that the player who joins is prepared to play rt as far as is possible.

I still like the electrocution idea though, but would perhaps use it on those attempting to win by distracting players with lewd comments in game chat - yes jimi, that means you

the elecrocution idea is sublime. for a man it can be attached to the gonads and a woman on her nips.

i had previously included the 'private' electrocution idea in an alternative Suggestion (i used the form!): Crotch Prompt For Speed Games

I have not heard back yet but there is a large backlog of ideas.. i am hoping that, now the Mods don't have to adjudicate on feedback, we will soon have this positive addition at no extra charge!

This thread wasn't a joke. Just an opinion, a rant, my annoyance - whatever you want to call it! Why would you appreciate the thread? It's hypocritical for you to state that you don't like this thread. If you read my original post, it wasn't saying that I was poking at how cheap someone may be for not wanting to purchase a membership, or something along those lines. My point was simply to say that the majority of these 'freemiums' are likely to request for "RT" and have a persistent nagging attitude. That was simply it.
