    I would agree to that. But getting everyone to do that would be near impossible. What do you think my friend?

    the number of players has nothing to do it unless you are a one man leader.

    leave this to real leaders Larry. Stay in your negative points lane. This is over your head.

    We are down to 3 full pages of clans. I believe that is around 50 to 60 clans, actually less if we don't count one player clans. We use to have 120 to 180 clans I believe.
    Leaders are not playing matches, and not just with my team or Metallica, they are just sitting silent and if they do play, they argue over a 2 player vs a 3 player match as if that would have any impact at all.

    Leaders playing favorites which this year is best example of that and feeding specific clans games / matches which equal points.

    They help their friend or friends ONLY where it concerns matches with certain leaders.

    My biggest issue is the leaders are not playing their players at all, and they are not picking up good matches that are in their queue.

    How can any clan compete with leaders like this? We are more than 25% done with this season. It would be really nice if I did not have send PM's to leaders and beg them to take a match. This includes one player clans. Why even make a clan if you are going to complain or worse not play.

    PLayers can look at our matches, we lose a lot, and we win a lot. All fair matches. There is one clan that almost has a perfect record in the win column. I'll let you guys figure out if that says "fair play" or not.

    I know leaders that are sick of it all and next year I'm sure we will lose a lot of great leaders and clans. It's really a shame.

    All my best to everyone regardless of the situation.

    lol I should have said, "at the end of the game I had only three moves then I would have mate." Meaning I had mate after playing for a while. I did not have mate in three moves from the start. People still try the Scholars Mate which you win in just a few moves but So far I have only fell for it once early on when I started playing.

    How do you mate in 3 position?

    How to Checkmate in 3 Moves in Chess: 7 Steps (with Pictures)
    To checkmate in 3 moves in chess, start by moving your queen pawn to d3. Then, move your king pawn forward to e4, which will free up your queen. Finally, move your queen on the diagonal to h5, where you will have your opponent's king checkmated without having captured a single ...[text shortened]... e.

    Unfortunately diagram can not be copied from the Site!

    Some call it a fools mate. 🙂

    I believe VESPIN would not test it out to begin with. Or were you trying to make a joke? 🙂 😛

    Occaisionally, a player will request his account be removed, or a name change (this is rare), and the old name will get the same "Removed" treatment.

    See Thread 194373
    Thank you Suzianne!! Great example. I don't like it when I play someone several games and then that happens. Thank you for responding.

    I would not advise you to test just exactly how many ToS provisions one would have to breach in order to achieve 'strike-through Removed' status.





    😆
    lol No not me. I do all I can to be perfect with all the rules in the TOS. And The admins and Russ have been nice and all very good to me. I just stay in my lane. 🙂

    Agreed, most likely the reason was an infraction of TOS Guidelines.

    Thank you Rusty. It had to be bad. I was at the end of the third game with him next thing I know, his name was gone, and in it's place was the word "Removed" with a line through it. It had to be bad and as you and moonbus said, "against the TOS rules".

    Thank you Rusty. 🙂

    Banned player. The reasons need not concern us, but will generally be due to infractions of ToS.
    Yeah it was weird, it just said "Removed" with a line through it. Thank you. I appreciate the feedback Moonbus. 🙂

    I had played a player twice I think and was in my third game. I had been waiting on it because I actually had the game won in three moves. The player had a line though where his screen name was. The line goes through the word "Removed". Does anyone know why someone is "Removed". He had no subscription.


    Standard member Removed It's not showing the line through the word Removed. They was around a while. I forget his screen name they took that out to.

    You wanted the stats. I will post them. I told you the rules at which I will count wins and losses. Other than this, I have nothing to say. When this is done, So are we. So no worries.
