Guys with 1200 ratings there will whip 1600 RHP butts here.
so i agree with the MINUS 400 idea but definitely not higher than RHP rating.

I think just see it as a status thing in RHP and nowhere else. 😛

Nonsense. ICC 1200 players are candy. I can stomp them playing 1.f3.

oooh yes, but this was fellow countryman. i forgot about that.... sorry to all. let him who can play a master and win cast the first stone.

would you like to play me mister sicilian?? i'll even play white against your dragon

tut tut....
so if i subscribe you'll play me?....
maybe i should just keep my big mouth shut and reply again when i'm 1800 or more? preferably not with the big P in front of my rating..
seeing that it makes such a huge diff

It has become obvious that you are not interested in making sense, just in flaming the forums. People like you just can't contain it for long can you? Thanks for clearing it up though.

i would like to apologise for my actions in this specific forum. my accusations were ungrounded and i've made a fool of myself.
i'm no chessplayer and i can really not say antything about chess at all.

i really love the game with all my heart and obviously you guys who reacted to my posts are also very passionate.
Pls accept my apology and sorry again for "flaming"

wow. the capability to admit you've done something wrong is very, very rare in these forums. most of us tend to be incredibly stubborn smartass know-it-alls. oh, and nitpicks.

and grammar nazis: "anything"

so rare its suspicious. looking at some of his games he doesnt seem like "no chess player" to me. makes me think maybe someone found out his password and took over his account. the part about loving chess is the only thing convincing me otherwise.
