I concur. These chess games do nothing but create strife among God's creation, so maybe they should round them up and lop off their heads Mo style.

If even you admit it's not cheating, then perhaps you should stop accusing people of cheating, especially if the web site administrators have rejected your allegations.

Baloney. What the moderator actually said was that you cannot advertise your clan in the General Forum. That's why I haven't advertised my new clan in here.

And, btw, no moderator has ever said I should be banned, or else I would have been banned.

But they have not rejected them, and they are cheating.

Perhaps you didn't read my reply to your post.

Regardless, my advice to you would be to learn what you're talking about before shooting off your mouth.

Only one page ago you said "According to the rules of the site, they are not cheating". On this page you are saying "they are cheating".

About the "gambling" Topic I will try a gamble of my own and suggest that if we had a thorough psychopathological diagnosis of the GF Posters the ICD code F91 would Feature prominently.
From the ICD List website:
ICD-10 Diagnosis Code F91.0
Child Behavior Disorders
Also called: Conduct disorders

All kids misbehave some times. And some may have temporary behavior problems due to stress. For example, the birth of a sibling, a divorce, or a death in the family may cause a child to act out. Behavior disorders are more serious. They involve a pattern of hostile, aggressive, or disruptive behaviors for more than 6 months. The behavior is also not appropriate for the child's age.

Warning signs can include

Harming or threatening themselves, other people or pets
Damaging or destroying property
Lying or stealing
Not doing well in school, skipping school
Early smoking, drinking or drug use
Early sexual activity
Frequent tantrums and arguments
Consistent hostility towards authority figures

If you see signs of a problem, ask for help. Poor choices can become habits. Kids who have behavior problems are at higher risk for school failure, mental health problems, and even suicide. Classes or family therapy may help parents learn to set and enforce limits. Talk therapy and behavior therapy for your child can also help.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I think you've probably come closer than you think with your diagnosis. πŸ™‚

Not surprised.

I also said:
"The rules allow clan leaders to take any challenge, even those which are criminally detrimental to their clan. But the spirit of the clan system has been mocked here. And Robbie is not only its architect, but its prime beneficiary. This is not good for this site. Maybe one cannot call it cheating, but it is cheating nonetheless."

But your deflection aside, my main point is that you shouldn't talk with your mind closed.

Like I said before, if the moderators are not persuaded by your accusations of cheating, what is the point of you continuing to make the accusations?
