Come on FOD, do something simple to help players of tanx.. If i make an op ( rated ) i must leave the top rate open or cap it 50 points above my own rate, otherwise i cant start the op.. Why cant you change the system so this also is the case at the other end of the op, in that when you make an op it automatically sets the lower rate, say 100 points below the player setting the op. This seemingly simple idea should then have the effect of stopping people "nic hiding" and also the equally dubious reseting themselves ( in my book = cheats ) you know who you are NooB uag Its a game , and it should be played in a fair manner, what happens now is that a player with a decent rate loses a few points - leaves an gets a low nic and then tries to extract his revenge, sad boys oops also posted this in general topic ;\
