You'd enjoy it the way I play it.

Oh, man! The English is the best!

Sometimes I even get a pawn up in the first few moves....

But this is about to change. I'm busy drafting some 'terms of service' which EVERYONE must agree before continuing to use this site.

I am not sayin ...[text shortened]... o get all forceful on you all, not in my nature, but it is for the best long term..🙂

Russ as you draft your "terms of service" may I suggest a grouped sign up for?
Group One would have things like:All my moves will be from my brain.
If someone comes out of contract with group one the penalty is instant kicked off the site.Group One is the least anyone has to sign up to.
Group two would have things like:I won't have more than one id.
Group three could say all the rest: I do not use data bases etc.
In profie it can show you signed up to group 3 or whatever.
I don't think multi nicks is an offence.It is the actions that are the offence.
I suggest a box in profile that says also plays as:
In that box you list other names so anyone can check you out.
I know one honest to goodness player with a secret second account.He created it because he was getting hell from his wife because she saw him playing at work.He created a secret account from her to give her peace of mind.What penalty this guy?All he did was keep his wife in the dark.Even my husband knows that wives should be kept in the dark.

Bad idea. Wouldn't the wife still wonder why her husband did not sign that agreement????

Hmm?

Hi, how are you planning on checking for multiple accounts ? You going by IP Address ?

Reason I'm asking is that at work forinstance, there are 3 of us that essentially play off the same IP ...

cheers

Yes and no. I don't want to go in to details - but don't worry, I would only investigate suspicious behaviour anyway, so I'm not going to be contacting anyone who shares a machine/IP address.

But now the TOS has been agreed, if I do find anyone who is abusing accounts, then I will take action instantly.

i would like to alert you to the players "dead man walking" and "mgran12". They are both the same person, cause I know him. He logs in at school under these two.

Just trying to help.
