But through quoting what people have said in none chronological order, you have confused the situation.

In fact the whole point of the thread is beginning to be lost. At the end of the day if people change what they say that could be down to new ideas coming about which people haven't thought of.

For example i said that i liked the way it is just fine, however somebody made a good suggestion which would help both parties which has made me think again and decided that this would be benificial.

That is how these threads should be used, you have posted clearly and we know where you stand but continueing to quote every post is now starting to make the thread look messy and causing us to lose sight of the point of the thread.

Now my suggestion is we forget the posts that have been made previously, we need to move on and try to suggest new ways which would benifit all parties.

As has been said we need to comprimse not scrutinise. surely?

Excellent idea

The point of the thread is discussing ways in which people can choose the rank of an opponent.

Currently they have the choice of;

* Joining a room with a similarly ranked opponent, which gaurantee's a suitable opponent.

* Creating a named room, such as "Over 850", which observation and experience of members shows is effective.

* Using the members bar to ask for opponents.


What is clear from this, and all previous discussions on the subject, is that any feature to assist in the choosing of opponents does not affect the game for others.

Proposals so far :

* show rank of room owner when showing game list.

* additional drop down when selecting games, to let you choose rank range of room owner

* ability to search for free players of similar rank to invite to play.

spinner- being able to see the rank of a person before you enter their room is the best solution-

_wrx_- OMG! Get a life..... goin on like the saviour of funkysnooker- who cares whether you have been playing since poolsharks, a hell of a lot of people have joined since then.
some people will see it that you personally attacked hurricane, the rest will just think you come across as a arrogant and rude moron. Theres a personal attack 4 you.
the majority of your posts show to me that you firmly believe your way is the only way and you will disregard everyone elses opinions on it.
Fair play for sticking to ya guns but i now think you are a muppet and so you have 1 less person who hovers between 850 and 950 to play.

- Since when did I say or even give a slight hint that I am the saviour of funkysnooker…
- The fact that you over reacting over something as little as this only suggests it’s you that needs a life.
ANYONE IN THIS STATE I’D SERIOUSLY ENCOURAGE THEM TO HAVE A LOOK AT THIS:

I also suggest that you read carefully, have a look at the sentence in bold my friend. Should clear a few things up, But don’t feel embarrassed, hopefully this should act as a little precedent for the future.

I am a VERY oldskool player, I even used to play poolsharks, I was a virtuoso for a long period on original snooker, played all the time with the best players lordanger, spursjay, kappo.Therefore i attain much more experience then you do. Is this relevant information... nope. So next time lets get straight to the point.

I’m sure people are clever enough to make there own decisions. I’m not hiding anything, perhaps try “r e a d i n g” this thread, so be my guest and see who’s been doing the personal attacking, thanks.

I thought the purpose was to play players of a similar experience? Using it to deliberately and falsely increase rank would be abuse of the facility and unfair on the mojority of players who play normally.

you are looking for a way to discriminate, and you already can as you say yourself

Whereas as each and every time I have stood my ground, commented as a civilised person.
But I don’t blame the way you choose to talk, I don’t blame your parents either, I personally believe it’s the society we are bought up in. Rather then making decisions by yourself you choose to mix with the wrong people, copying exactly what they do in order to gain respect. It’s the vicious circle of life.

Please don’t be so influenced by others, that you will only read what you WANT to read.

_wrx_ said:

You also inconsiderately discount people who enjoy playing others that obtain a similar rank, whereas my ideas are to cater for all, low & high ranked.

Lastly I think Iamtheworst has mentioned a GREAT idea

Well, what I do I think of you Mr mad Mike Tyson?

lol, I’m grateful that I don’t have to play you.

One last thing, just a little teaching lesson, the definition of debate:

Debate or debatingis a formal method of interactive and position representational argument. Debate is a broader form of argument than logical argument, since it includes persuasion which appeals to the emotional responses of an audience, and rules enabling people to discuss and decide on differences, within a framework defining how they will interact.

Another thing, if some of the above negative words were to be mentioned within the chatroom im pretty sure the consequences would not be the same…

Wasn't it me that said that??

Anyways can you get back onto topic without trying to make people look bad as what help is this going to achieve?

It is hard to debate with somebody who wants an arguement and can only have things their way.

Again resurfacing threads just so you can rip them apart isn't helping, its making the thread look messy.

For the last time, (and i really want everyone to do this) can we not scrutinise other peoples posts and respect what others say.

And I'll say it again, forget what has gone before, lets think of thebest way that this will suit all parties in the game

Thanks

What you say 2good is fair and makes pefectly good sense, though i find it odd you and others choose to ignore the rude comments written, as if nothing bad is being said.
Ok from now on I will concentrate on the topic at hand, though i would like to see mods and admins refrain others from diverting the discussion, in other words same rules apply to Everyone.

I assure you that if any rude comments are made by anyone they will be dealt with mate.

Anyways my favourite solution is having the players rank in the room description as this will help people see what rank the player who owns the game is. This is good as it doesn't hinder people who will play anybody.

However the downside is, you will still have people from all ranks joining your game, so that solution isn't really solved.

I think this will work, as it meets the requirements of high rankers but doesnt restrict anyone from playing who they want.

iamtheworst said:
Something that I thought about while reading spinner's post. Would it be possible to install a drop down menu on the "play online game" screen that has the ranks on, so the player can click one of these and the rooms with that rank owner are displayed.
For example, say someone wants to play someone in the 600's. They click the drop down menu and a list comes up:
500's
600's
700's
800's
900's
The player would then click 600's and a list of all games where the owner is of a 600 rank is displayed. This doesn't restrict anybody from playing someone else, as this drop down menu would be available to everyone.
Your thoughts on this?

sorry to bring it back to an argument mike-

but 7 posts to analyse one post i made just proves you are a clown- you even went to the trouble of finding links to make yourself look funny- and i have no life

You bring my parents into it saying you dont blame them for the way i talk- whats that about-

obviously i dont think im mike tyson- the name comes from the name of my dog so the video you posted holds no relevance at all

Bet you are not so condescending when theres no internet connection to cut the crap that comes out ya mouth
