Why do the people who care so much about rank - Fight for rank?

07-07-2002, 12:08 PM

Whenever I fight for rank, I ONLY go after high ranked people. Newbie squashing just takes too long.

I only fight for rank on occasion.. and I do it so that other high ranked people will fight me (so I don't have to go around finding certain ones that accept challenges from low ranked people). I do this mostly because if the guy's high ranked, it means they can sometimes give you a good fight (not just die in under 10 seconds like some of the newer people). Also, most people high ranked get there by playing all the time (mostly newbies) and they've at least got some experience fighting. But the biggest reason I do it is so that the top 20 or so will fight me (usual they're all good fighters, although most will say something like "you suck, you lag, etc." after you get done beating them).
