Is it lame to play vs players below your rank? I mean I'm currently C and there are like 10 players that have that rank.. so I've to play C/C- and if there's none I've to play D+. Do you think its lame/abuse?

T_T.. because I don't want to look like an abuser-o-!

most people look at the people they play. Like, lets say you are one of those people who go 65-5 and quit, people are curious and will look at your match list and see all the lower rank games. They will see almost all of your opponents were non-kor and people with normal records, or not very high 'Highest Rank' in their profile. Do what you want, just dont go 70-2 vs lower ranks and brag about it, thats all. Its your account, do what you want with it, learn, have fun, entertain yourself

I just play whoever joins my games usually.
The only time i choose is when someone makes a game i might check their stats cause i dont want to play someone much worse or someone A LOT better.

I'm currently 37-14 and I'm not dodging people.. played Jifeng also, but he lags like hell so I don't want a re O_O;!
Most likely.. I love to lose and want re re re re.. because I want to learn.

Edit: No this is not for posing. I'm not A+ level but I try my best to get a high rank (legit ofcourse._.)

I'm C- and still play a lot of Ds just because it's so hard to get games. If a D offers it then I'll take 65 points a game rather than wait 10 minutes.

When you are in the top 50 you will often have to play one or two ranks below you or not play at all. There are many people who will consider you a newb basher (or think of you in some other negative way) but you should know that their opinion is idiotic. If you had looked at the match list of top players from the end of season 3, you would see that the majority of games are not between equally ranked people. That's just the way it is.

You probably have to, assuming you don't dodge all decent/good stat players. Which isn't bad when done ocasionally, for example after 0-5 losing streak one might consider playing someone who's 'reachable' skillwise, why not. The opposite is annoying, when people say "C-/C msg" and they are D+, or they make game for higher ranks.
