Can we get the starting point for Game Spy room to be the "rated 0" room rather than the "unrated 0" room?

That would make online play and match making so much easier and everyone would have an idea about how good they were. Too few people are playing rated games - they are just staying in the unrated room where they start - this means that alot of players ratings is meaningless alot of the times.

Any chance????

Ahhh but if you started RON in the rated rooms I think more people would play rated games - that was my point.

Are people not playing rated games because they don't want to or are they not playing them because they don't start in the rated rooms? I personally think it is the latter.

I don't care for rated. I think a lot of casual players don't care, but then why would you want to be beating casual players?

But playing rated games would mean you could match up with players your own standard and not casual players.
