Dear "Akizyy",
Not only did you try plastering all the forums with the same single post - as if this somehow makes your opinion more persuasive - you did it while trying to plagiarise the name of one of the most respected players on this site. What, did you think we wouldn't notice the extra 'y' on the end?
I don't even know what you were posting about, and frankly I don't care. What I care about is that you're behaving like a little child who hasn't got his way and will keep pestering his mother until there's an ice-cream in his hand.
Go away, and don't come back until you can behave like a grown up. Or, if you're not an adult yet, go away and don't come back until you can at least behave like a 13-year-old mature enough to play chess with grown ups.
SINCERELY,
orfeo
EDIT: And now I see we have David Tebbb, with three b's. Your imagination knows no limits.

I will go one further. Let's give anyone who makes three rec's a star. We all sign up here to buy the Next star and rotate. I am first.
I hereby do pledge to purchase a 1 year subscription to RHP for the first person who responds here (in Debates after "now"😉 with three LIGITIMATE recs, I will buy them a 1 year star. How about you Delmer? want to buy the second? Any other's?
I'm sure that Russ won't object to this thread. And it is a way for all you good Libs to support "freedom of speach". Not? Note: The Recs must be posted on ideas in this thread only, and after this moment.
That seems fair. And we get to have more new and valid "star" persons. That is cool.
Any questions about the challenge or the deed? Sign up now. Pledge 15 bucks and sponsor those who deserve to be noticed. I am first. Who will join me?
Oh. By the way. SVW is the judge of any and all Recs. So don't go get a bunch of buddies. It won't work. I will judge. Then the next guy who puts up the 15 bucks will judge. And so on and so on. We will make it a point to make sure to post the current "Selector" as each participant buys the membership of the "deserving" person. It will be good to recognize why we think they deserve a star. I will try to manage this, as it seems to be my hair brained idea. Mike

Originally posted by StarValleyWyI like the idea but it needs some tuning. I have already sponsored several stars here and will no doubt sponsor more, but who gets a subscription for $15? I've been overcharged. And adding legit posters as subscribers does nothing to eliminate the trash that caused this thread to be opened in the first place. There's no elitism involved in believing that people should be required to subscribe before posting. Anybody who has access to a computer can afford $30 a year. Let them play some chess games for free. Let them read the forums. But make them subscribe before they post. And how is free speech violated when one wishes to bar people who don't subscribe from calling people who do subscribe cheats? What's more, there is no free speech here for those of us who actually pay to speak. You insist on defending free speech for freeloaders. Present this in a way where we can pick up the tab for those who deserve and need it and I will support it. Present this in a way where we can eliminate those who abuse their "free" speech and I will support it.
No.

I bought the subscriptions of a couple of kids from North Carolina. Their subscriptions came due.
I just responded to Russ that I bought them a subscription for a year. Not a lifetime.
He took care of it.
Oh yea. Forgot to defend the freeloaders.
They are just like I was. Poor but good. Sorry. If I'm supposed to go off on the poor, forget it.
I go off on stupid rich commies like Rob. Not on the true poor.
That Russ is pretty smart. And he even notifies his partner on the same reply.
Anyway.
This is a one time -- one year subscription. When the next year email tells you that "you will be charged"... just tell Russ that... no. This is a one time gift. He is pretty smart. He'll figure it out.

If you were posting for free would you be insulting people and calling them cheats? You have not addressed how buying subs for deserving people gets rid of Akizyy. I have no idea who the Rob is that you're talking about. If you like I can message you the names of the people whose tab I've picked up but I won't name them in a forum. I have no idea what this means, "That Russ is pretty smart. And he even notifies his partner on the same reply."

How about this? Contact Russ and have him let you organize a tournament among non-subscribers. Something fast like 1-day T/O and 3-day T/B, or maybe 3-day T/o and 7-day T/B. You run the tournament and I guarantee you that I will pick up the 1 year subscription price for the first tournament winner. And we'll go from there. Certainly we can find enough sponsors to keep it going.

I just want to reply in GENERAL.
Who can notice the thousand newbees?
And more. I don't even care enough to go "look up" the great crap that has been flung upon the faces of the mighty chimps.
Stupid me.
I know. I don't even have to look. So I set up a challenge of thought. Of ideas. Of "posts able to gain rec's" from a bunch of really smart chimps.
Spare me. Please.
Don't forget. The "value of the thing is what the thing will bring".
God damned capitalists.
Snark.
I am first. The banned one is second. Want to be the third judge? The third benefactor? < thanks to the banned one for the term. I like it.>

Having said that the literal democrats won enough votes to rob the liberal democrats of a seat in Parliment at the last UK election.
Small typo's go unnoticed by most people. If David Tebb or Akizy is upset they should either PM Russ or sue the imposters for libel/slander or defamation.

You live. By the norm of being stupid.

I should make it clear that I DON'T support a requirement for people to be subscribers before they can post. Really I was just venting at this one person's stupidity.
I wouldn't be that suprised if the person WAS a subscriber in real life, but they chose to create new usernames for the express purpose of spamming the forums. All the posts were removed very quickly, so I suspect not that many people saw them. I was one of the unlucky ones, and it just made me mad that there are people that belligerent running around here.

As far as elitism on these boards, I don't see it (except like one example).
I think most people who post and play on this site are intelligent, reasonable and good people.
On a side note, I was wondering what a "rec" is. I am a bit new, so I don't get it 🙂
