Is anyone else sick of this stupid question? I am. Apparently the spambag responsible is a ratings obsessed freak. Someone should make it clear that the ratings on this website mean very little in the real world. Loads of people play on this site against people they know in real life - I do. It's not to "pad" their rating, it's because they have actual friends in the actual world. Apparently the spambag responsible does not. This, of course, ignores the big picture - if you die with a high rating on this chess site, was your life worth anything more than that rating?

I am just glad I helped pad User 185717 5-1 down 🙁 User 51855 9-2 down 🙁 and User 94046 7-1 down 🙁

Maybe I should stop playing these people in clan games and tournaments to prevent further padding of their ratings.

I have said it before and I will say it again, it's not the size of a guy's rating that's important it's what he does with it.

Yeah that's padding. It's good to see you have awoken. If you can beat your buddy five times why beat him 50 times? What have you got to prove?

I heard a glass of tomato juice mixed with vodka at a ratio of 50/50 does wonders for a hanglover. 😵

Edit: You forgot to drink your 12 oz of water before going to bed. 😳

If that is so, they must be quite a site.
