Originally posted by hunterknoxI was in the top 50 for a long time. Seems to be impossible nowadays to maintain that position, at least for me. There are too many players around who make perfect moves all the time. I guess most highly rated real players will sooner or later leave the site (or at least do not renew their subscription) or their rating drop since they are overrun by the perfect players. Or both.

Originally posted by gambit05I only see two players in the top 50 that have not lost a game. They haven't played many games yet, however. Also we do not have any grandmasters playing on RHP, so how can you say too many players are making perfect moves and be serious about it?
