Originally posted by Sicilian SmaugWhy did you change them back? They are there for this very reason. Gotta keep out the riff-raff, m'man.
Just changed my settings a few hours ago from max 10 concurrent games to unlimited. I had it set that way before as i was getting sent loads of unwanted challenges from random people, 5-10 games a day, usually with no timebank and not even an hello. But what happens? Same thing again.. Untold amounts of random challenges from every Tom, Dick and Harry ...[text shortened]... send a message first. And why me? Does everyone get this? Think i may change my settings back 😕

Originally posted by Sicilian SmaugI keep my maximum games set to '0'. If people want to play me they have to send me a PM requesting a game. I use to send out random challenges, but now I play clan games almost exclusively.

Originally posted by Sicilian SmaugNo. No hello. Nothing. I usually say, "Hello and good luck. Do I know you?" ...or something like that. I never get a response though.
Ever had a hello from these challengers? The ones that annoy me especially are the 1 day T/O no timebank ones, I'm thinking skull taking scam straight away. I usually keep my max games at about 20 below the number of games i like to play. That way clan games and tournamount games can still be initiated but friendly games can only be started after you've exchanged some PM's.
The upside is that I rarely lose to these people. As far as my rating is concerned, it works out nicely.
when you first join rhp, wasn't there a text encouraging challenges? or do I just remember wrong.. nevertheless, if the function is there, why should people think it was not supposed to be used? also, what does it matter if there's no message. ehkä he eivät vain osaa sanaakaan englantia? or are shy or just never thought that somebody would be offended. I know I'm not, even if I prefer to chat...
btw, I get almost never challenged, it must be some visibility thing that you do...
