I only have a 1400 rating and I just got an 800 rated game. How about that?

I will play a game with just about anyone and not bitch about somebody being 400 points lower than me in terms of rating even though I am a patzer myself.

Read between the lines next time, numnuts.
I have no doubt about my rating being mediocre. However, it is not the point. When I propose a game, I can give any conditions. If I want to play a person, whose name has 5 letters, and begins with R,its my thing. The matter is why every such a game, is to be picked by a person with 8 characters, S beggining name.

Read beetwen the lines,seed. 😕

If I understand, he wasn't taking a jab at your rating (like I also thought)... just saying playing a person rated 400 lower is ok.

If you want to avoid people rated 400 under you, you must use the rating advanced option.

The answer is quite easy: the title of your propsed game is at the end of the line.and looks small and black, while Accept game is a link, coloured and underlined. Howcan one resist the temptation to click it?

Wait, you're too lazy to enter the advanced options and you're criticizing them for being too lazy to read your silly criteria?

Did someone forget to water you today? 😕
