I know how you feel.  I was trying to get Fei Long up to C-rank for like an hour.  And I only needed to win 3 matches.  I seriously suck ass with him.   At least I got the achievement to host 30 Arcade Fight Requests out of it :(
 
Then I switched to Cammy for awhile to make myself feel better.

" @fleethefactory: Hit me up any time if you want to play, just don't beat be OR I WILL RAGE!!!!1111    Ok, here is my wtf question. Why is it that it so much easier to beat seasoned veterans compared to random noobs? The better the person is, the better I play.....it has always been like that. You would think all the knowledge I have accrued over 800+ hours of this stupid fucking game would make it easy to beat randoms who are.....um.....random. But no, these are the people that are most likely to beat me. WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON???!!!! "

i keep getting owned too i have only 2 rounds on my wins right now and they both were in separete matches if you own a ps3 add me

Hey, just keep pluggin' away.  You're gonna have to lose a bajillion matches before you start winning even half your matches.  Just learn the basics, the strategies, and the match ups and you'll be alright. 
Don't obsess over wins and losses.  Just enjoy the game.

"

" I think, as long as you know why your losing. Example, your getting hit by jump ins, cross ups, overheads or whatever, you can improve. However if your just like FUUUU- wtf is going on... then you have a lot to learn. "

I'm like 2-17 online today, I know the feeling...

I've got basic gameplay and tactics down, now I'm spending all of my time in training mode trying to nail combos before I even think of heading online.

I'm still playing SFIV, and I can assure you... I really, really suck.  I still enjoy it though. 

I am terrible. I play arcade mode on easy and still lose about 25 times to Seth before finally completing it.  Although, I'm finally learning how to play as Dudley.  Combine that with figuring out you can set online matches to partner you up with someone at the same level as you, and after 6 days I've finally won a freaking match.   
 
Note to self, most people as new as myself do not yet know of the horror that is the Cross Counter.  : )

Jesus Christ, the air of arrogance with good players in this game is sickening. I blow at this game, and when I lose it's because I know I suck. But when I read posts from "good" players online the only thing I can think is that "hey asshole, your good at a video game, that is all" Get off your high horse. Sour grapes? Probably, but I'm too aggrivated to give a shit.

After a days play, I finally one my first ranked match.  I have been very consistantly getting very close to winning, but still losing every time.  It took 7 matches for me to win just one.  I even saved the replay, and have been too afraid to go back on and lose my few player points.

out of all the games that pissed me off, this one made me demolish my controller. or maybe im just having a bad day..

I'd say when I was playing SFIV the first thing I did was do the trials a lot for whichever character I felt like trying out, then go into arcade mode with that character.  Then try player battle and hopefully come across a person who is in my skillset.  I think since many people are fairly new at this game that BP system hasn't really set in yet, once the really good players have high BP then you will be more likely to come across players around your skill level. 

Yeah, it's tough to go through a losing spell. I went through one myself earlier. I was beaten by a pretty decent Dan player at the end of it and was sent a message that said "PWNED!!!". As if me losing was breaking news. Pretty tame for trash talk so I sent a polite message of congrats and an Anchorman quote "Stay Classy". First time I ever responded to trash talk so I expect a pretty nasty reply come this afternoon. Oh this silly silly world.

When all else fails, play the AI.
 
Also, don't feel bad about getting trash talked by a 13 year old on xbox live. You're helping them build their self esteem by them winning a competitive video game. If you had won, they might have committed suicide or pulled a Columbine. Then I bet you'd feel horrible!

Don't think you have to worry about trash talk in Street Fighter, everyone is a mute while playing that game for some reason. "

Try to move away from ranked games at first, everybody fights like their lives (virtual points for some?) depends on it.
