Suggestion to replace Feedback with Win Percentage

Instead of this:

* silly_sil ( 43-0 )
* CoonT ( 6-1 )

This:

* silly_sil ( 56% )
* CoonT ( 38% )

Reasons:
-Rank must be viewed with win percentage for an accurate status of the player. The number of comments left for the player is a distant 3rd in sizing them up.
-People who like to leave comments have a lower tolerance for opening pages and clicking links. Clicking the profile page to see their comments would be no distraction for them.
-Rank and Percentage indicate a players skill only affected game play. Feedback indicates a player's chattiness.

Secondary suggestion:
- Place the win percentage (and total points) in the mouse over comments, for quick access.

Thanks for the great work you guys do.

all a high win percentage tells me is they play more 2 player games than 8 player games. leave the feedback where it is.

I totally Agree! Or that the play team games and beat up on noobs.

i do see a need for something to make it look more like feedback though. one time in a 1v1 the other player was a new recruit and he was scared because he though i was 70 and 0 in my games

I think the feedback is fine the way it is guys

I believe the rank speaks for itself. Play well, you go up. Play poorly, you go down.

Feedback gives information NOT available eslewhere -- namely whether a person is a jerk, a repeated deadbeat or other issues. I DEFINITELY look at feedback and usually try to avoid anyone with a high percentage of negs or over 20 negs, with a few exceptions (particularly if the comments are mostly won't communicate in team ... and the person is not a native English speaker or it is clear that he/she has friends who just like to insult each other).

If anything, I would like MORE information on feed back. There are lots of issues that are "personal choice issues". Cursing & insults, truces (even announced), deabeating, etc. are all reasons folks like to avoid others that have nothing to do with rank.

I would like to see win ratios, but in the profile, not to replace feedback.

Ok... well interesting. Obviously people feel the need for the feedback next to name tags.

I just feel the feedback looks to much like a ranking, when it really only indicates how much a player talks about other players. It's kind of like your 'chattiness' rating.

I like to have the ability to review other players, but I rarely use it. I spend enough time on this site as it is.

A higher win percentage does indicate more 1 v 1, 2 v 2, and 3 v 3 games played. I guess the only way to make it relevant is giving a percentage rate per style of game.

Maybe something like for the profile page:

1 v 1, 2 v 2, and 3 v 3 = 51%
1 v 3 = 34%
1 v 4 = 21%
1 v 5 = 0%
1 v 6 = 14%

Then maybe the percent of wins would be more meaningful.

Feedback > %

I agree that it can be misunderstood, but so can just about anything. It doesn't take too long to figure out what is what. Those who don't are probably new, or the most casual of players. Do we really want to change the system to cater to those few? I would say "no", but that is just my opinion.

i think is not good idea case they have a lot of player that have low percentage win rate but they have a high ranks case they play a standard games so precentage of win dont seams anything
