    Calling baboons for baboons says what about me exactly? :)
    ---
    Winrates around 50% is what happens when a matchmaker is based solely (or predominantly) on performance/ability. If you gain infamy, you get matched against tougher opposition and eventually lose. I you lose infamy, you get easier opponents.

    Its not rocket science & there is no nefarious conspiracy.

    Sorry, but that sounds like an opinion, I am interested in factual information. Most of my matches in the 2000-2500 infamy range have fairly balanced total infamy so what I was interested in knowing, is the criteria the algorithm uses to assure the 50/50 win/loss ratio. Again, if all you have is your opinions, please note that they are not valuable or relevant to my question, I prefer facts, not personal guesses masquerading as common sense.

    Thank you for giving me a useless opinion based on a lack of any actual factual information. The irony here, is that you somehow believe that your opinion and observations are somehow more valid than other peoples opinions and observations. Oh well, there is clearly nothing valuable that will come from you regarding this topic. Thanks for trying.

    What do you want me to say? You are unwilling to accept my explanation of how the infamy system works and what it is intended to do. Thats fine and if you want to disregard information you dislike as opinion, then that is fine aswell.
    You remain as unenlightened as you started, but that is mostly your loss. The sad thing for me, and everyone else having to read your nonsense, is that you will probably keep posting unfounded and absurd conspiracy theories. But alas, I tried.

    Punctuated arguments? Extensive vocabulary? Not something I see all the time, especially in a thread about matchmaking.

    Here is a second chance, please explain to us the mechanics of the Battle Bay matchmaking algorithm with facts (genuine knowledge), not personal feelings, intuition, guesses, or wishful thinking. Looking forward to something legitimate from you. Based on your past comments, im not optimistic, but who knows, you might prove useful after all ;-)

    Have you encountered the matched you with mk1 ships with a bunch of Mk4 or Mk3. I encountered 2 mk1 or mk2 in my team in the last 5 battles.

    I guess many people are leaving the game so they have no choice but simply pair us.

    I will try
    @Spartacus @Kean
    Do you know the developers are here on forums and do you think they haven't already answered the questions you asked?
    What Kitterini and AntiSnipe are saying is because the thing you've asked is already explained previously by the developers of the game. It is not his personal opinion, intuition or whatever you mentioned above. The match making algorithm was explained by developers to community previously and after each update. If you want to know please seach through forums you may find it.

    Thank you. And @The Grim Repair , I'm sorry I was rude to @Kean and I apologize to him as well, since that's what a grown up would behave like. The provocation was extreme, but so was my reaction to it.
