what a player REALLY want to know is how many people are better (in percentage) and how many people are worse
Nope. I don't care for a percentile, a rating system is much better. If I go from 47th to 50th percentile, I have no idea if I got worse or if others got better. If I go from 1350 to 1273, I got worse.
On the full stats page it does that already. You have to be a premium member to see your full stats.
I want it in ADDITION to the rating!! read well
if the stats are already there, then show it to the non paying members too, it does not cost anthing to show it
Yeah and give the non paying members access to game explorer and unlimited tactics trainer because its already there and doesn't cost anything. I love the non paying members that make demands in the forums. Makes me giggle or is that the herb.

Ratings are not comparable over time. This is why one cannot easily decide match results between past world champions who've never played each other. Ratings are not comparable between different population pools, hence why chess.com ratings are not the same as USCF ratings, neither of which are the same as FIDE ratings. See also rating inflation
please calculate players PERCENTILE after every game in the LIVE Chess (beta) program... in addition to the rating... somebodies percentile says more than somebodies rating... for example you are among the tenth percentile .. meaning only 9 percent of the players is better than you
rating in it self does not mean anything...
and percentile is very easy to calculate I am sure... in freechess.org they do it to and it is very satisfactory... what a player REALLY want to know is how many people are better (in percentage) and how many people are worse
