his will turn out to be an annoyance for the ones who got their nick up by hardwork
People maynot have time to play serious (full focussed) anymore, and their true skill wont be reflected when they cant do that. Suppose a 2k rated player decides to stop aoc and cant play again due to real life reasons, his rate shouldnt drop to 1800 over time, its just not right.his will turn out to be an annoyance for the ones who got their nick up by hardwork
If the rate represents their true skill, people won't have to work hard to achieve it again.
Not playing for 10 days will lose you around the same amount of points you'd win against an equally skilled/rated player in one single game.
And on a different note: A rating shouldn't be worked up hard, it's there to display skill level.

So, what if he doesnt want to play again? His hardwork should be kept in the records. And what if he doesnot want to play serious? One might as well decide to keep playing only for fun in another account.. in that case it isnt fair to force him to play one game per 10 days or whatever, its just wrong.If one doesn't have time to play fully focused, loses points on the trot and can't win it back when he starts playing again, his current skill isn't as good as it was before. So should be his rating.
Keep the best ranking to show what a guy was capable of. The rating is in place to show the current skill of a player, not his peak.

The notion that players are "forced to play a game every x days" is wrong. The system is to reflect the decay in SKILL overtime by creating a decay in points. Your points should reflect your skill, they are not trophies and they are not for hoarding; they should exist to find an equal opponent to you.
If somebody is away for 30 days then their rating is higher than their skill; that player would lose skill the longer they are away and hence their points should be reduced to reflect that.
If Viper goes away for 1 year he wouldn't come back and be rated 2.6k, he would have dropped down. His rating after 1 year should be approximately the amount of skill he has lost over the time he is away. It makes perfect sense guys. This system isn't to prevent smurfs (though smurfing would kinda corrupt the system) it's to create fairer games and make the game fun for all.
It makes abolute no sense. Nobody loses skill the way you call it, You lose a part of ur brain like someobody pointed in a post before.
But yeah let's pretend that riut will comeback after 6months facing 1800ich equally.
And what happens if a guy who is really not playing, just plays a single game, possibly a TG to just register a game for his points sake?The notion that players are "forced to play a game every x days" is wrong.

@ Carlos Ferdinand
Yes, think so. If he really stayed away for a year his first game would be closer if played against a real 1800.
But if not and he's an exceptional talent that can stay at a high level without playing at any time, he'd rise to the top again quickly after proving so.

Travelling for 6 weeks will cost you 80 points. If you deserve them you'll them back in 4 games.
