ELO SYSTEM AND CLUB MEMBER

[kaneaaa]

I just want to know does the ELO system treat club members and non-club members equally, that is to say, there is no extra bonus in points for victories for club members. Because I'm not one I can't see if the system is treating people fairly, and just have to go on blind trust. I have noticed, however that in some games I've seen the rankings of club members drop slightly in losses in some games where I was sure others had been severely penalised in points in similar situations. Maybe its just me, but like I said, when you can't see how the system operates, it is a possibility that it is not working fairly as it is not open to scrutiny.

since you aren't a club member ... you can't see ELO. bravo.

so all your whining about the unfairness of ELO in the other topics is just asinine. you have no clue what you are talking about.

ELO system works equal for all members.

Maybe when you've membership you can see what player is better to play than other because you can see the ELO rank, but the system doesn't change for get or not a membership.

Thanks for the insults, really makes you come across as a credible person to discuss a topic with (and by the way, not being able to respond objectively to the argument and instead resorting to mockery and insults speaks volumes about your character). Please feel free not to come on and insult me. I'm entitled to express my points, if you don't like it just don't join in.

i am in the top 100 for ELO on the site and a club member for coming on 4 years. when i discuss ELO in other topics (it is definitely not a perfect ranking system), i speak from a position of knowledge, not ignorance.

you, on the other hand, see fit to throw feces at the hard-working devs with zero factual basis and zero respect.

so, if you feel insulted by me highlighting how your uninformed, useless rants about ELO in this topic and other topics (50% of your entire posts on the forum), i have no problem with that at all. i am just glad to highlight your inanity so that other forum readers know not to take your opinions in this matter seriously, as i made the mistake of doing in your other ELO topic.
