Question on Arena Points

Me (destro lock) and an ele sham are doing 2v2, and we are finding at around 1380 rating with a win-lose ratio of 13-9, we are winning 3-9 points and losing 20+ points, is there an explanation for this? I've heard you need to have double the win of your losses (such as 10-5) to start to get higher points, also I've heard that the more games you've played, the more points you get.
If anyone knows anything about arena points or a link to the info on points, it would help a lot and shed some light on this unfair situation :p.

Arenas are a total maelstrom these days ( due to the new hidden rating ), avoid them if you want to keep a fair rating.

Yea, I also heard of a hidden rating for each person, can anyone give an explanation of this? I've seen arena team's with a win-loss ratio of 27-33 and they had 1600 rating, so yea, it must be pretty unbalanced atm.

It's already fair.
Teams are matched based on your personal rating, not the team rating. Now a 1200 rating player in a new team can't face 2200 players that have started a new team.
You win and gain 9 rating, means you've been playing a team with lower personal ratings. You lose 20 rating, also means you're playing a lower personal rating team.
At least thats how it's supposed to work, don't know how it works out the predicted rating of the teams though. If a 1200 and 2200 forms a 2v2, does it average out or go for the highest/lowest?

Ok, I read all this faq and still have questions.
I, hunter and mine friend mage played lots of matches yesterday.
Most of them we have lost, so our rating went down a lot.
Suddenly, we started to get more than 4 rating for a win, so that means we were matched with equally MMR (hidden) rated teams.
At the end of the day, after next row of loses, we win one match.
And we get +25 rating, opponents lost -26 rating.
That can means 2 things imo:
1. All rating and MMR system is still f.....ed
2. There were only one, high MMR rated team in the queue at the moment we signed up.
Overall, I think the system is made that way, that it forces the arena rating to decrease, hit the bottom and slowly go up eventually, on par with player's skill. And it also sucks.
Blizzard should just change personal rating with this damn MMR and everything would be clear.
