Originally posted by Positional PlayerOur Knight colors were switched. When I tried to move my Knight, the square would not light up and I could not move it.

I was not aware of this until I stepped away from what looked like my opponent's Knight, and my opponent captured it on the next move! When I saw the capture, I thought it was impossible because it was his own Knight. That's when I realized that the colors had been switched. An obvious bug that the site admin was unwilling to fix and my opponent was unwilling to compromise!
In general, if a piece is of one's opponent's colour, one assumes it to be one's opponent's piece.
What's wrong? 😕
Well, sounds like you got bit by a glitch. Although unfortunate I think you can shake if off. Your rating is pretty good and it seems you like the game of chess so just press on and enjoy the site. There are so many thousands of great individuals here you can have a great time playing against so don't let one bothersome person ruin it for you. No sense in quitting the site. Get a star and help support it if you can. Have fun.

Another report going to the site admin for you Slow. Thanks.
- You've played 79 games so far (which lets me assume that you are pretty familiar with RHP works)
- You have quite obviously alerted my previous post incurring additional work for the forum moderatin team
- Since you have joined RHP you have not paid a single penny to support this site
....
- I, on the other hand have subscribed, then re-subcribed and guess what subscribed again ... And once my current subscription runs out I am more then likely going to continue supporting this fantastic site
- Sure I have called you a jackass, but please explain why this is so insulting since you are so obviously are one (just read your own posts if you need further proof)
Bottom line
The few pennies Russ & Chrismo make from their advertising non-subs have to endure I would believe cannot sustain this site, subscriptions on the hand can and do ...
Non-subs are more then welcome (you IMO are an exception of course), but creating idiotic work (i.e. alerting my post) for people you don't pay in the first place ... Only a true jackass could come up with something like that ...

Originally posted by wucky3People don't call him a jackass because of his user name or because he is a non-sub. Did you read his posts?
If I was a non subscriber and I read some of these posts do you think I would subscribe?
Why does his user name make him a jackass? I just don't get why certain people on here think it's their godgiven right to abuse non subscribers. If anything you're chasing away potential subscribers
