Originally posted by no1marauderwell from my personal opinion its the number of games i was able to play as a non-subscriber (i think it was four at Gameknot back in 2005) and the good game moderation (which i still think is excellent but i think others would disagree with that one). I also like the vast range of tournaments on offer as well.
Please state one other significant advantage that RHP has over competing sites. I'd tried virtually all of them and virtually all of them have better chess related features.
That is my personal opinion but if you wanted other opinions you should ask the majority that don't post in the forums.

It's true that the users were able to cajole the Site Admins here enough to finally convince them to actually have a Game Moderation team. This was only possible BECAUSE of the Forums.
On a few other sites, ANY subscriber can start a tournament.
Originally posted by no1marauderYou do realise, you were the first to initiate your ramblings on me, dont' you? From there, you decided for yourself, apparently, as to the person I am. You, attacked me first. I will defend myself. Its not only from you, but certain others, who feel they have the need, to personally attack me, or make jibes/comments towards me. And certain others, who personally attacked, decided they can say what they wanted to say about me, and I didn't know any of them. UNTIL NOW.
Ignorant AND hypersensitive is no way to be. It's also pretty hypocritical to be such a whiner but engage in constant personal attacks against other users.
I was a subscriber long before you even were on this site. I've paid for other people's subs several times. And I've seen these "Forum Wars" with people like you trying to kill the For ...[text shortened]... I wouldn't expect someone so self-absorbed to take what anyone else says "seriously".
And if you think, and certain others thing, that I'm going to sit and shut up, when they say things about me, then you and them, are wrong.

Get yer facts straight. You're not some heroic martyr, you're just a hypocritical, hypersensitive busybody.

I wasn't aware that the game moderation was set up because of the forums (a little bit before my time, i dont know when it was set up) and I wasn't aware of your last point (about being able to set up tournaments - i myself am just too lazy to set my own up because then you have to chase up people to play in it or wait for an entinity before it can start) but now i am thank you.
Originally posted by no1marauderlol. How could I have attacked what he said, when I first posted, and have a puzzled smiley, at the end of that post?

Please, any more issues, rantings and ravings, concerns, frustrations, send Feedback. 🙂
Originally posted by Elamef37Your smiley use is of no consequence. You had already complained about the user's avatar and it was removed because of your hypersensitivity and flat out ignorance of who and what Kunta Kinte was. Your first post claimed that the avatar was "racist and offensive".

How are these things not attacks? And you have the gall to whine about being "personally attacked" when people point out your ignorance and hypocrisy?

Originally posted by no1marauderDoes your face turn red when you type? I can't imagine any Judge in any court room in the world taking you seriously when you talk to a lady in the manner you do. You would think she was on trial for murder. She is not. She acted in accordance with the site rules. She is the victim. War is war loser get over it. Rules are in place not just for your convenience to use at will, but for others as well.

Originally posted by cashthetrashCash, you're too kind, but I'm not a victim. I've just stood up for what I believed in, is all. 🙂
