Bughouse game ratings

I want to know why in bughouse they put you higher rated players like if you are 900 rated on bughouse, they put you against a 1300 rated player or something, and i just want to know why bughouse does that since it's so annoying, for instance today i was put against a player 3x higher rating. not enough? they put my partner against someone almost 4x his rating. (my rating like 580 my opponent 1700, partner 300 partner's opponent 1180) and saying there wasn't people about our rating is kinda ridiculous because in variants they say there's at least 400 players in bughouse most of the time. and i kind of want this to change as well so i can get to my goal in chess at the moment of 1000 in every 2 player variants and standard, (Crazyhouse, blitz, king of the hill, bullet, etc.) also if you don't believe they put me against a 1700 rated player here's screenshot, and if you still don't believe go to my games in profile.(no shaming my alerts)

Maybe you should try changing the rating range.

Rating range going up: +150

Rating range going down:

I do. every time. it works for me but my partner gets paired up with a higher player still (or partner starts game before me)

I'm just looking for an explanation of how the bughouse ratings are calculated?
