Me and my opponent attempted to play our match today, but i ahd to download the update first. I follow the instructions and downloaded the update...
I was a Junior player (a few points from next level) and after i dowloaded the update, i am now a new member..
I kno it doesnt ahve a major affect but i move slower now and thats unfair...
i will play anyway though but everytime an update is availabe, i will most definently lose my status

You won't lose your status if you save your profile before you install new update.

I dont know who exactly is over the online tennis but it is very fun and i plan on plying until the end but STEVE STIFLER IS MAKING THAT VERY DIFFICULT.
I have been messaging him form both of my accounts (i have read reciept and IM history) and we didnt get a chance to talk until today.....then his ping was too high and he is very rude....we tried to play several times but it wouldnt let us..
also i would go check to see who was online and i even waited but he wasnt there.....this is very unfair...not in a grandslam...
and then he wants to be rude and say off the wall comments..i guess i have my first rival...lol....please reply someone and let me know what to do...

V.Williamzz, listen now.
First of all, why do you say he was rude? What did he do to make you feel that way?
Secondly, ping is not a rare problem in this game, unfortunately, especially when the match is between European and American.
In this case, I ask Manutoo for help. Manutoo, these two guys (Steve Stifler and V.Williamzz) need to play their Grand Slam match but ping won't let them. If I remember correctly you did help once on this matter so I hope you can help somehow again.
Thnx

This guy VWilliamz is really crazy.

Man, this is funny. But, you know, internet is full of lunatics, so it is not such a big surprise.

very rude guy

V. Williamzz, as said by
S.Williamz in the "Australian Open" topic : "
"junior" does not run faster than "new". In the player statistics, a skill called "form" takes care of that."
About the ping, you should both be sure to have closed any download program you may have, checked for virus (
www.avast.com ) , and spyware (
http://www.safer-networking.org/ ), and if the ping is still too high, then connect using the "Join Remote Game" option (one of you must know his IP to do that and tell it to the other one)
