loseing points daily 
just wondering if one day will the point deduction daily will stop. this site is already the best site for games online for some people who cant play everyday to keep up there points for example someone who takes a break of like 1 month lots of points gone daily for not playing other checkers site don't do this maybe there be a vote on this about the point deduction daily.or it will be up to the operator. i think if that would change lots more people would play. most people anyway sit on there points here and dont play so dont matter about that just think it would be a good ideal if the point deduction would stop thanks :)
Please see;

As it is the rating system is a very bare-bones Elo, see;

A few hacks were added to;
(1.) Create points by beating on newbies (0-rated)
(2.) Deduce daily points to counteract (1.) ???

We really need rankings for new players to be more volatile compared to established players.

Ex;
If a new player wins 15 rating points then the established guy might lose only 3.

Also if an established player returns from inactivity he should not see his account depleted of so many points.  He should lose points at a much lower rate when inactive but have his rating's 'volatility' be increased.

I agree 100% and really hope rating system to be brought into this century!

this is a prob but they just need to make it where if someone ain't on here for 2 weeks take so much that way its not for the ones that are just busy wont lose so much and only for subs

If Points werent deducted 24 hourly , people would just keep the same rating for a long time ( in some cases ) 
i dont like the fact u lose points daily myself but in all fairness its a good idea , to stop people dominating toplists even when inactive.



well even when the top 20 players lose points each day they still dominate. and there all progs on top 20 lol so still think if the point deduction would stop thanks:)
i wouldnt know about progs , as i only play tanx.

iv dominated the toplist for the past 3 years , and still am.

wheather im active or not , because i can rank up more then alot of people , only because i spent so long trying to improve my game
althought a friend of mine always complains about people using programs in chess.

so i guess your right xD

but in tanx there isnt a program.


i guess it depends on the game your playing , looking at your name i think you play checkers? , not a game iv ever tried xD <_<
You lose points in any game everyday.

This system loss of points every day is 
Perfect ..
 if not I a good day and hopefully get to the crown .. and done, no more games with that nick .. I make another nick to play.. and  I would crown a lifetime .. xD
