(Poll) - SE4 Ratings System

My original post was more towards having players join together just to gain up on a higher rated player due to his skill etc, which is not really within his control and that sort of thing.

True, but I think if players were to take that sort of tactic, they wouldn't care if he was rated or not. AND, any player who was rated could decide ahead of time if he wanted taht particular game rated or not (and if he was scared of such a thing, could opt not to have his empire rated).

But would that really be any different than everyone ganging up on a religious player?

Besides, are there any players who are that obsessive about their rating? Or do most view the system as a way to play more games?
