I consider this a flaw in the games we play.

The games should be able to assess a player in terms of their ability, not their rank. Infinity Ward say that MW2 can do this - but it can't. It really really can't.

All they seem to do is group people into games based on rank - which is an awful way to group people. All rank tells you is how much the game has been played - not at what quality it has been played at.

If they looked at different stats, such as shot accuracy and kill/death ratio then you might get a fairer grouping of people.

They could even start to asses people's different gaming styles and group them on that - distance travelled per kill, or number of sniper/rifle/knife kills etc so the game is balanced between people who prefer different tactics.

If they do this, and manage to match people against more suitable opponants then I'm sure XBL/PSN usage would rocket even further.

I would prefer a system where if you're over 25, you're segregated from the brats.

I don't agree with a swearing ban. I will often swear if I die, especially if I've been careful or if I die two or more times very quickly. Usually along the lines of "f**k" or "gay" or even "you c**t". I don't swear excessively and the over-25s are more likely to be more mature about things than the pre/teen players who unleash a constant stream of profanities for no reason.
