If only everyone had a win:lose ratio

That isn't accurate, due to the prevalence of stacking and/or sympathetic joining. I know I try to join teams where they are massively underpowered in many games.

More ranks imo.

It'd be nice to have a rating system where after each game you rate the people you played with. The problem is, this is only possible with an honest playerbase.

We should rank people kinda like the military imo, if you want to get a promotion you have to kiss the right arse.

We either need a ladder or more ranks.

The wrong one might get you into deep shit.

urgh.
I like the win:lose better

I play win or lose and if someone gets the best of me I congratulate them. I even watch the replay(if the game has one) to see how they kicked my @$$.

Why not?

I'm saying there are far too many rage-quits and easily angerable people who play Spring to rate players honestly. Clanmembers would have very high ratings due to playing with each other and therefore better ratings, and many people would be underrated simply for accidentally angering a speedmetaller. Among other things.

There's nothing funnier or more satisfying than beating on somebody (non noob) so bad that they rage quit ^^

Me? when I lose I take it like a man! slaute the victor and go down with my ship!

yeah I'll give steve that. He and I have differences but he is a good player.

I never really care about teams, stacked for or against me I just take satisfaction from how I personally played. Although I do prefer 1v1 in any place its possible.

If my team is a sack of lol then I just fight like he-man until the very last stand with my boi surrounded by DT and fortwalls in the top corner of the map

Yeah more ranks would be awesome.

+1.

Though TAspring ranks usually mean nothing. My star is made of plastic =\.

Sometimes the 'younger' ( newer ) players can get all whiny about having 1 more star on the other team. I believe the imbalance was exactly just 1 more star and he start to yell at me and told me I was stacking the game. Host got mad and kicked the whiner..

I think most games are good balanced just like TA spring.
