Should have read the whole thread, seems that moderators are a fact now and it is only time to code that stands in their way (and the debate on detection methodologies re endgames etc)
Feel like I have been debating a bill after it has passed into legislation, oh well these forums are great fun and I am sure it will turn out for the best in the end.🙄😀🙄
With all this discussion we haven't even touched upon what the membership at RHP wants to do about cheaters... So, let's start a new thread - what do the members at RHP want to do about players caught cheating?
Here's some examples:
1) Bar them from all tournaments and clan challenges
2) put a (C) behind their name so everyone knows they use computer assisted aid.
3) Create tournaments for computer players
4) All of the above.

What are you here for?
No offence to Russ or chris of course, but I am here mostly for the community and friends that I have. Chess is something I do here in between threads......as bad as that sounds. I don't care much about the ratings. To me online chess is about trying out new ideas to apply at my chess club. Say what you want, but that is it for me. The only thing that makes me renew my subscription is the community. Nothing else. I have found friends here.....phla, paulie, Nyxie, Feivel, Ravello, kirksey. That is what it is about to me. I became a member here because I fit in with people of like, that I have found some difficulty finding elsewhere. As sad as that sounds it is the truth. I feel terrible about the exodus of people as of late because it is the destruction of something that I love. I know I sound wishy washy about the subject because I am torn. I have been able to come here and feel good and have fun, and I would miss it if it changed. It is that community that I love. I thank Russ and Chris for bringing us all together here where we can get what we cant elsewhere. I sometimes think that if people want what is strived for in these threads it would be better if they moved to ICC or FIC. This site has sucked bag since all of this has started. IMHO!

I will edit once again....What does russ and chris want? That is what is important. If the community is gone I will be too. I will have no reason to stay. Again, I will not try to insult russ and chris, but we will lose alot of what this site was, and it will never be again.
Originally posted by rapalla7Yer sooooooooo right, Rapalla7. I am terribly sorry for my vicious and destructive action of identifying blatant and obvious cheats. Why if people like me, Grayeyes, darvlay, Ravello, etc. weren't bothering the community with such unpleasant facts, RHP would be a virtual paradise of happiness and good will. I will try to never again wake people like you from your self-imposed stupor.

Originally posted by rapalla7That's about the only thing you ever posted on these forums that I agree with (I'd also kick yer a** in pool and/or darts).
No1,
Even though we don't get along, I would still have a blast drinking beers, getting drunk, and playing chess in a bar with you.
That is just the way I am.

Why is it some of you guys allways have to resort to verbal abuse,
If you guys want to sling mud at each other then get the hell out of this thread, go find yourselfs a little playground, or grow up.
