another example, thast is my personal view- many players suffer from menally loosing the game before they even start it. And of course, higher ranked players sense that straight away. its easy to see, actually.
Now, when the level has dropped, it is nice to see, that a lot of this mental blockage has lifted from many players, and their true skill can be seen more.
I personally can say that, as i am not playin much these days, i can feel that "the fear of rank" has gone down for sure. good thing i guess. levels the play-field. but the best always remain the best.
TIMES HAVE CHANGED imo, lets go with it, letsd pla, have fun, and less arguments. respect goes a long way.

I'd like to dedicate this disagreement to kris...coz he's a leg-end
All about consistency. Cabbie, hmm maybe fair, but I reckon he'd still be 700's. Noisy tom has teetered at Pro countless times and has the ability but just doesn't really care about rank status. If he did I think he could hold top 700's.
As for me, rank doesn't matter. Looks good but means naff all, well, unless ya hit a Top Spot, which is highly unlikely unless it's Arcade. I'll play anyone and get beaten by anybody until the bitter end
800is harder toreach these days, cos there is no big tourneys. the ones who can are the older players. Them, who can, have even been at 900s or at least had a sniff at that.
I mean no beef, but im brave enough to bring some examples.
When there were tourneys, cabbie was in mid 600s
Tommy was a touch higher, 700 max.
now they are both well in 700s, cos its easier. but they never get to 800
the integrity of the whole site has changed.
Another example, why is Hippes at very high? Cos he actually can play the game and doesnt have to rely on empty tourneys or weak opponents.
Thats how it is-Weaker get mildly stronger, but stronger are maintaining their level minimum, in the weaker environment, or excel

the integrity of the whole site has changed.
It has changed a lot, im saying it again, it's up S Creek, have a look at the tourney leader board, every player apart from 1 has played and earnt their tourney wins for over 10 years apart from 1 !! In a year and a half, he has managed to make top 10 by not winning jack chit, he wins 30 to 50 tourney's a week without facing an opponent, no true refection at all, I'm glad I've spent 13 plus years accumulating my wins to have someone win nothing to catch up lol. Considering this player has more tourney wins in some game types than actual games won is a joke , I'm sure that wasn't Nicks vision for the game.

Tom, being able to hold one name is another thing im better than you are at. It is your own fault that you keep getting banned or hacked.
Look at previous commentators- same story.
No point blaming ur new rank :)
