This may have been answered elsewhere; if so apologies.
When I left the site years ago I set my challenge settings to players over 3600 so no-one could challenge me.
I logged in today to look at something and someone with a p-rating of 1200 has challenged me to a rated game in the last hour.
I'm no longer active here (I might come back). How has someone outside of my parameters been able to challenge me to a game and how to I get rid of the challenge.
I don't want to just wait it out on the basis that the challenge should never have been possible in the first place.
@PA82
No need to apologize. Your rating limit is there and I can't challenge you.
The challenge you mention is there also.
You can delete it from the "my Games" list by clikcing on the trash bin.
About the rating limit I would suggest to send feedback. This could be a programming glitch, if p1200 is not considered to be 1200 for compariosn.
@Ponderable Thanks for the speedy response. Been so long I couldn't remember how the site worked!
I have deleted the game as suggested and have sent feedback - I suspect, as you suggested, it might be the low number of games (1) and the p-rating the challenger had which caused the issue.
@Ponderable Yep - def. an issue here. Now I have a challenge from Tyler Neal as well (p1200) and RichH (p1064). Is it all p-ratings, not just p-1200?
Wonder if this a recent issue as I've not had a challenge since I left and now two in two days...
Is anyone else getting this issue?
@PA82 saidIt has to be the provisional thing.

1200 is the default until a player has completed so many games(I think it's 20)
The player on p1064 must've lost some games before he reaches the 20
@Russ saidWould it make sense to put greeters in there?
Anyone returning to the site in response to an email about inactive account closure will receive a couple of games against other recent returners to help player's get back involved again.
It appears that this is not respecting the challenge settings.
@Ponderable saidPossibly, but at the time I was putting it together, I didn't want greeters to become overwhelmed.

@Russ
I didn't rejoin the site due to an email - I used my login to see something I could not access without logging in.
I've never authorised people challenging me to encourage me to play again. If i want to play again I will either issue or accept a challenge.
I do not understand why I need to keep logging in to delete challenges I have deliberately changed my settings to prevent.
I accept the fix may not be quick so please can you let me know how I can prevent unwanted challenges.
