I haven't played AoC since wayyyyy back in the MSN Zone until I made a Voobly account about a month ago. Immediately after coming back, I have noticed that some of these Voobly ratings are ridiculous. Why does the "overall" even exist? I don't get it. Even the best players like TheViper and JorDan are 2k-whatever on their 1v1, clan, and general ratings.... but this "overall" gives them almost 4k I have noticed. 111111. Wtf is that? :?
Also, I have been playing some games... And I will not throw out any names... But total noobs with 1700/1800 ratings seem to be popping up all over the place. I am only 15xx myself, and I beat multiple 17xx and even an 18xx rated player over the weekend... But a player who is actually playing at that level should, and I believe WOULD, always beat me. Do people just play games and TRY for points to make their names look cool or something? :roll: The ratings can be rather misleading... and quite honestly stupid. I don't get it.
Sry if this post seems completely pointless and a bit of a rant... But that's pretty much what it is, I suppose. 11. I just had to get it off my chest... And what better place than AoCzone? Thank you all for reading my rant. And PLEASE... Feel free to help this rating system make some sense.
