Originally posted by Very RustySome members never had that statement ran by them. I know because I never had it ran by me and I've been here about 4 years. Ya-know, the book keeping is horrendous... "Who did we have agree to that and who did we miss?"
I just didn't see the need for it, when we have already agreed to it when we became paying members of this site !!! It seemed to me we are being asked to confirm something, that we have already agreed too???
So it's easier just to send it to all members again. I'm actually glad they did. Now if I can just get them to start the mod team back up...

Originally posted by Very RustyI guess we should all be thankful that we won't get the popup before every move in every game.

Oops! I hope I didn't give anyone any ideas! 😲
No big deal checking the box again, but maybe (hopefully) this does signal a purge?
I don't think I've ever come up against someone using an engine here (if so, I was unaware)- most of my games have felt legit, but then I've only finished 19....
Hearing about players getting banned for engines makes me wonder about this correspondence thing...add in all the databases, opening books (all the permitted stuff), etc. and I'm wondering if this is really the type of chess I want to pursue.
Playing a ton of CTART 3.0, CTS, Fritz, etc. and sticking to the local OTB club is sounding more appealing as I get better and try to become more serious...
How much cheating is going on out there????
It's really lame that we have to wonder.
It's a good idea, but I have to say that I believe it to be a sign that the admins are very worried about the situation. Has this sort of thing happened before? If not, this means that the situation is now getting out of control. You wish that people would have a clear conscience and do that right thing, but it unfortunately doesn't happen like that.
🙁
Several things have happened today - it's a good idea to check the Announcements forum when something unusual appears.
Try Thread 88786 for starters, then the topics on the new Clubs (link next to the Blitz link, below the logout link, on your screen).
