If so even your wife and kids are racist and discriminating,good teacher you are............

Following this moronic reasonment I should be racist and don't fight discriminations just because I'm not black or gay?
You're a sad person.

1 am, trying to feed a crying baby, I wedge the bottle in the poor girls mouth with my chin, and move my chess pieces with the mouse. After about 5 moves the baby starts choking and I feel dreadfully guilty!

Wow! That's really late for me since I have to get up at 5:30 am. Are you a 2nd shifter? Or maybe you aren't working right now?

A failure of self-control, I suppose ...
This site is like ebay. There is never an end. I have only just been told of it and am already up late waiting for my opponents to move! It is infectious, and, like chess in person with a beer in hand, it is never the right time to stop"!!

Keep the games flowing!!

Nobody can be banned for expressing their opinion. Not even people who abuse others in the forums. Since I started posting in the forums I've had a problem with people who just want to attack my character. People like no1maurader who attacked me personally for an unwarranted cause. I personally think that he has a low self-esteem problem and therefore needs to belittle other people, but I'm not a psychiatrist and dont know much about him, other than that he's a very old man who has a need to dominate other people. 🙁

I've been trying to get the administration here to STOP posters who attack other people when they post. They seem reluctant to do that, but the good news is that after no1maurader was chastised by the general membership he has stopped abusing people who post - at least in the General forum. 🙂

My advice: You can do one of two things...
Make a list of the people who attack others and give them heck in the forums for their bad behavior! or...

Ignore all their posts.

I rarely venture into the tripe that is the General Forum. You can dress it up any way you want, but my "personal" attack on you consisted of my criticism of you for allowing an obvious cheat on your clean league team. The cheat was subsequently banned from RHP; who was right and who was wrong, Arrakis? I also said that your inability to identify such an obvious cheat should disqualify you from being a Game Mod when you solicited my support. If anyone wants to look up the relevant posts they'll see that Arrakis is a very pathetic liar.

Keep trying to get me banned, Arrakis; that's about as humorous as your last two games against me after you claimed you "had my number". Peace, chump. Game 1072600 & Game 1072601

If yo have a poblem with another users use of the forums please alert it, we do take note of these things. Just because you don't see the effects (the only one you'd see at all would be extended suspensions or bans) doesn't mean that nothing has happened. It also may be that we don't agreew ith your position in some cases. As to why we are 'reluctant' to ban posters, this is the last resort and only done in extreme circumstances.

As for a 'ban people' list, let's not start witch hunts. The last one was left to stand and provided little more than bitching and argument.
