stats are meaningless when you can manipulate them

Cumulative stats similarly to the boot stat update for last 100 games could be very useful here

Yeah, for me... I've wanted to join some games but over five years of play, it will take thousands of games to significantly change my boot rate e.g. I could create a new account... but that doesn't work if I want to play in coin games with a min "boot rate" prerequisite.

Or if you really cared you could just cheat the stats a bit?

I love this idea but, as someone before me, I'd rather vote for a 100/50 days stats.

Either, the site should learn Practice Games to the newbies, to not lose stats.

i don't like this idea, because it's important for the total game count/boot rates to be accurate, but it would be nice to have, like in chess.com, a boot rate/win rate/games played and stuff over the past x days (90 on chess.com)

could make this a max 5 times during whole user-life, so that you could wipe the stats some few times as you learn the game(get better and are worth better stats)

Perhaps as a more sophisticated option -- allow a person to set an 'expiration date' whereby the stats aren't deleted, but simply hidden and not counted.Another thing I'd like is to be able to see your stats without making them public. (Yes I know it's fairly easy to set them to public, look, then set that back, just an insignificant thing that would be nice)
