Subject: Rating system flawed for online play?

Hello,

Perhaps open a discussion.

I played a few games at FICS now and again see the same thing. If you play much
lower rated (say 200-700 points), then you lose points simply. If you play equal
or higher rated then you win rating.

A lot of higher rated players are non stop declining to play games at 3 0. It is
not nice. But it does bring them points.

What to do to fix this problem other than avoid certain pairings?
