After this, the only people you will see chat or messages from are those are on your friend list. All others players will remain silent. It's rather nice this way - I recommend it.
I am so tired of the following. I start a game, it's a "ranked game" the person insults my ability to play & refuses to play with me again.
This is a humanity issue, i'm so tired of the child like behaviour in this game. I want a way to only play with respectable people. I don't want to play with children who refuse to rematch, aren't even respectful in the chat, how can I pay money I will pay thousands of dollars for an account where only adults play.
