Exactly that; everyone has a different skill level, if you aren't that good and someone repeatedly kicks your arse by rushing you, where's the fun in that? I'm not saying rushing (or any strategy, for that matter) is bad, but what's the point in wiping the floor with someone who isn't that good? It would be like playing a game of football with a child and beating them 50 - nil... sure, well done, you beat them, but seriously, you could have done that without sucking the fun out of the game (for your opponent).
Umm play someone your level?

Maybe it's more fun for you, but doesn't mean it's more fun for everyone. Everyone has (and is entitled) to their own opinion. Sure, playing online with human players is often a hell of a lot more challenging, but challenging != fun. I (used to) enjoy playing online with people from FS, but it's also nice just having a nice relaxing game against some AI. Neither was more fun, they were/are simply different... but that's just my opinion.
Umm I play both, I think it's wrong when you do it all the time, but not occasionally. One analogy I use is compstomping is like a stroll in a park, while 1v1 is like a gym workout.

Maybe that is a reason why some people don't play online, but like I have already said; If you are repeatedly getting your arse kicked, where's the fun? Why wouldn't you stop playing online? Some people just don't want to play online, and what's wrong with that? Games have offline modes for a reason, and at the end of the day it's their choice whether they want to stick to that or not.
Again, play someone your own level?

If you Win , well you win.
If you lose you only get better.
Nothing is cooler then that.
Err, no.
Just because you lose doesn't mean you automatically get better. If you are playing against someone of similar or slightly higher skill level, sure you can often learn things from it... but it's not like you get EXP from every game you play until you eventually level up.
If you really don't want to get any better, why do you still have the motivation to still play? I mean, it's like being satisfied with knowing how to serve but not hit back. Or, just play someone your level?
I really didn't want to reply, but you just made me go, "Huh?".
