Usually I ignore petty wafflings but No1. According to your profile you are leaving the site. So in the mean time. Could I politely suggest playing a bit of chess, chilling, watchig tv, reading a book, anything except filling the forums with the same old crap.
If you leave, good luck, if you stay... just play chess and use the forums for something a bit more constructive please.

I really don't care what your opinion is; if you don't like what I post don't read it. People complaining about what other people post is about the most boring crap in these forums, dimwit. I used the forums for calling for more Game Mods and the expulsion of cheats; what "constructive" things have you done in the Forums??

Actually, I did. Twice. Just now I re-read it again and realized the sentence could be interpreted two different ways.

Original:

"Yeah, we get it Shav; you don't care if people cheat on the site. Well, 90% of the people here do, as do (finally!) the Site Admins."

One way:

"Yeah, we get it Shav; you don't care if people cheat on the site. Well, 90% of the people here do [cheat], as do (finally!) the Site Admins."

Another way:

"Yeah, we get it Shav; you don't care if people cheat on the site. Well, 90% of the people here do [care], as do (finally!) the Site Admins."

It all depends on how you read the sentence.

So upon further review, I now see why you said what you said. However, the way in which you wrote it could have been better.

[On a side note, this was probably too much time spent on one sentence in the general forum..... but, whatever.]

Beats just complaining ALL THE TIME... bore.

Shall I go on to explain the highlights of your in depth explaination of the faillings of this site, IM, other opponents you have played, or just the poor hapless souls you have sucked into the endless stream of complaining or just general slagging of... nah. Can't be bothered. I'll go play some chess or try to find an amusing thread. To the other readers of this thread... don't feed the ego.. do something more interesting.

Now you're just being ridiculous. It wasn't "a perfectly clear sentence". And I know you can do better than the one you wrote.

This is actually becoming funny, now. And by "this" I mean the fact that we're still talking about it.

no1 didnt cause this,, cheaters and their apologists did.

The negative reaction to the first public statement by Russ that he is indeed serious , is what keeping this issue going.

Only a moron would have interpreted the sentence in the first way you suggest. It was ridiculous for you to comment on it in the first place and more ridiculous that you've now spent 4 posts on it, but hey it's your time.

Aster reading your last posts:

In the first place, You are the moron.
I became tired, really well tired of reading your crap posts.
Your best weapon is to attack the people that have an opinion that contradict yours.
Old fart, react. You don't belong here. You should be retired by now.
Your only entertainment seems to be calling names, and a little practice to show a poor sample of sarcasm. May be your brain is failing, is it?
You are a really sick guy. Search for urgent medical assistance. I feel pity for you.
