They can shoot up quickly, but not playing onlyand allways with players with rating difference >400.

If Irina plays against a 1900 player and wins, then she can play against a more than 1900 rated player and so on, allways adding rating.

Months ago, that was (if I remember well) a long discussed point and many of us thought that now the rating system is ok, particularly when you have finished your first 25 or 26 games.

Thanks.

My point is that they should shoot up even faster if the player is consistently beating players rated over 400 points above them. I can see no reason for this restriction.

Sure, a player might get lucky and beat a high-rated player in one of their first games and see their rating shoot up. But it'll shoot back down again if they can't keep up that performance.

The current situation seems a bit injustice to me. If you beat a +300 player you get rating points, if you beat +500 you get _nothing_ :(

If a new player beats someone with rating >400 above, the rating should raise with the same amount as if his opponent had 400 (or 399 :) ), i.e. there's a maximum width of your jump upwards the rating ladder

Yes -- there'd be nothing wrong with treating a rating difference of >400 as being a difference of 400.
