How does RHP deal with a player who has already resigned 9 times this morning after 1 or 2 moves?


In just over an hour now he has reduced his handicap from 1315 to 1170 by deliberately resigning 16 times!

I don't think points can be lost in games resigned within the first 3 moves?


sometimes people hit a wall playing too many games, and resing dozens or hundreds of games at once. sometimes it's caused by inexperience and they learn to never do it again. sometimes they're just jerks who do it over and over and over again.

sometimes, especially when the games are resigned early, it's a cheater with multiple accounts, farming points for his one account. see: User 285560

sometimes it's just someone bailing out of a new tournament round, not wanting more games.

I can't find a player with that ID, nor a player with that name. If you have proof, I suggest sending feedback (link at the bottom of each page) with full evidence. If you do not have proof, I would suggest being very careful about the accusations you make.

Sorry I put the game number of my game with him. Just then follow his other games.

Oh furrfu... look at his entire profile. Is there not something there that might suggest to you that there is a different reason for his resignations? A word of personal text, perhaps?

He is a non sub who can only play 5 games instead of 6.

He wanted it fixed.

Nothing happened.

He threatened to leave if it was not fixed.

Nothing Happened.

So he Left.

A tip: 2 ...... Kd7 is generally considered an inferior move in any Queens Pawn opening.
