Originally posted by WulebgrYou know, for a while I thought that far more higher rated players played at Gameknot than here (just by a glance at all those rated 2200 and above), but then when I actually did some searching I found that while RHP has about 18,000 in the player tables and Gameknot about 28,000, the real difference was that the median rating there was around 1380, a full 100 points higher than the median on RHP. And along with more inflated ratings, the site seems to have a problem with cheaters, as I've seen the usernames MaryAnn and Meman near the top of its ranking list.
I play a few games there, but RHP is far better in nearly all respects.
Plus the site is damn ugly.

hahaha, oh, [whistle] they [Gameknot] banned my name because I resigned two games. they call it 'intentionally lowering rating' thats a laugh.
