I'm at 1491....just played another player at high 700's...I won in 8 moves and received no change in my rating....why should I assume a giant risk by playing a lower rated player when I won't receive any benefit if I win?

Don't play rated games that have that high of a rating disparity. It prevents people boosting their rating by challenging players a lot lower rated all the time.

Uhh change the rating range to higher range so you go against higher rated players and you actually get higher rating
