I do not understand why you want to see the people before you turn on certain features. How will that create interest? Don't see why you can't take a chance and turn the ratings on instead of opening new game lobby's with no incentive.

Yes I understand it's not just like that, but why not take a shot and see what happens? It drew interest at the beginning because of the thought that MAYBE rates would be implemented. But so far you just drive people away asking for a certain amount of people, then asking them to stay for a certain amount of time.

yes..rating would be fantastic and would attract many people, because others clients haven't it.
but if we haven't rating, people will have no reason to come on here from other clients....

Thats a good point! Also promote fanpatch!
