Some Questions

[Lamb2]

Hey! I'm kinda new to this competitive battling stuff, and I joined Shoddy Battle a few days ago. I enjoy it very much, but I have a few questions.

I was wondering what "Away" meant. What does it do? And why is it there?

My second question is about the rating system. I don't really understand how it works. It's very confusing for me, and I need someone to help me with that.

Could you help me with this? Thanks!

"Away" just means you're not on Shoddy at the moment, and your username doesn't show up in the tab that says "Users" until you come back and say you're not away, where your username shows up. The rating system is kinda complicated, so I'll just let someone more advanced with that stuff to help you. ^_^
