I tallied up how many times I was banned from games on iccup in a row - I was banned 52 times in a row from 1v1 games before I could finally get a game with someone. -_-

apparently, everyone is a rank whor3 on iccup, and when they see the almighty 12-3 record, they ban -_-, and it doesn't help that everyone is a pussy and bans me because I play random.

I'm gonna see if I can break the 52 ban-streak record, and get cussed at some more for playing random. Happy gaming -_- and stop banning me assholes lol

I'm 1-4, and D or D+ players with positive records constantly asked me for games when I was on last night! But luckily, I don't mind losing, I enjoy it only slightly less than winning when I have the time.

12 -3 then don't join D/D+ game. Join c- or c then you won't get kicked. otherwise, reset stats

Host games yourself and you can't get banned.

52 times in a row? I doubt it.

I don't ever recall being banned more than twice in a row, and I've had records better than 12-3...

That makes no sense. Someone of higher rank would generally be even less likely to want to play someone of lower rank with a good record because for all they know it is a semi-pro korean or something who just started the ladder.

But yea the combo of random and having a good rec can be troublesome, try creating your own games and wait a few seconds when people join so if they are going to leave after they stat you they can leave before you waste time starting the game.

I agree with Jonoman92. Although it's not that hard to get a game. When I started TSL I went ~15-0 (with my off race no less). I didn't have trouble getting games :p + Show Spoiler +

ok not a fair comparison

Mirror MU, Random, No Iccup launcher, Very few losses are a few factors that increase the risk of being banned.

worse part is then when you get the game they're like, "race?" and i say "random" and they leave after all that -_-

Dude no one plays random at a competitive level. Thus no one wants to be bothered wasting their time practising against something that simply won't benefit them in the long run.

I only ban people without AH or if they are lower rank than I am. I've played a lot of people with records like yours. That's probably why my win ratio is so horrid. T-T

But yeah, I never ban because of stats.

Oh sry that must have been me jk but personally i dislike playing vs random players. Especially if i lose to one

feels like they're looking down on me. Just the fact that i have to scout earlier and it sort of annoys me when my factory is half up and hes a zerg.

Just make your own games -_- so much more convenient, too. You can browse TL until you hear the little sound and then you can start. And can't get banned, ofc. But people leaving is less annoying.

So, people like Testie and Eriador magically don't exist?
