If they made it that easy, people would use it all the time so that they could stomp all over lower level players for fun and to farm portraits. Lower level players wouldn't be able to get fair games. It sounds like a bad idea to me.

Yep, after 2 weeks of new season. http://us.battle.net/sc2/en/blog/2452060#blog

No your MMR will stay the same regardless if you are active or inactive. You should be placed in the exact same league.

Why? So people can more easily beat up on people that are way worse then them, making the game inaccessible to anyone trying to learn the game? I wouldn't be completely adverse to a separate leagues based of race, but even that opens a lot of area for abuse where some people will have their noob bashing race kept separate from their serious race.
Oh and you have to win to be demoted, just like you have to lose to be promoted

When does the NA reset occur? I am at work and haven't been able to play for the last day or so...

I guess it would make sense to use the new statistics, but that would allow people to just mass games in 2 weeks to get to the top, no? I somehow think they will use the new seasons stats.

I was under the impression you get some kind of end season reward for finishing top 8, apparently not though

There is a account wipe button, its the "Buy Starcraft 2" button
In all fairness they prevent you from wiping ur account for no legit reason because they dont want you to ruin some bronze leaguers but i also don't see how this reset is useful except to get rid of the people that dont play anymore

relax, points don't mean anything anyway. your MMR stays the same, and you will still get matched up with similarly skilled players.

I dont actually know it for a fact - but didn't I read somewhere a blizzard poster talking about how MMR changes relate to how you do in relation to your opponent?
If you instantly quit a match to throw it, I think it detects that a very different set of circumstances occured than you played a 25 min game and just lost - and reflects that in the MMR change.
I cant prove that tho, it is just a memory.

I find this reason odd only because I played WoW and like everyone in WoW I killed and hunted newbs for fun sometimes. Then again I solo farmed World PVP kills too =) I think I quit WoW with 40,000+ kills (Including BG's World kills I think were about 2k+) It only counts honorable kills of course.

Yeah no shit but that doesn't make it any less stupid of a reason. Doing this makes it so you can never really change races effectively or try out any sort of builds in a ladder setting without spending 50 bucks.

Thanks for the information.

I have sometimes seen matches that end instantly show up in my record as a "tie." I think this might only occur with custom matches, but that might be the source of confusion on this.
