An RHP Curiosity



Please help me understand why those who persist in attacking other members on the RHP Public Forums are unable to stand up to them over the board.

May have to do with rating difference?

Or if the same, they would be too embarrassed if they did not win?

I play everyone and get pounded all the time...Sometimes I even learn something. 😉

Maybe they persist in attacking other members on the forum because they are unable to stand up to them over the board.

Maybe there is no relation between attacking other members and playing chess.

Not wanting to play chess with you is not cowardice.

Cowardice is making veiled but unnamed accusations, for example. Like you just did.

I beat Marinka and murrow, and drew with Smaug (he did have a cold though).....not a bad result from a bottom feeder like myself 😉

Well you gave yourself up here, no one knew it was you till you mentioned it.

OH go ahead give him a couple games one with black one with white, the world will not end, no matter what happens in the games, and you can still hold your head high. 😉

I'd only play GB if there was a way to disable the chat.

That is not the question though, why don't you just give him a couple of games? What is your reason for not playing?

There is, you just add him to your ignore list, and you get no conversation! Just play the game!

Great feature!
