Can one's rating be shown in forum posts? It saves me having to look up some loudmouths claims with a 1200/provisional rating. If this has been asked before I'm sorry that I'm too lazy to search for the appropriate thread, but the point is a valid one.

What are you on about? I mean that in the forum you will see the following next to my name for example :-

Total recs : 0

What I'm suggesting is that there be a column for one's rating so that I can save time instead of clicking on their name to see their rating. ie

Those with a rating less than 1800 shouldn't be allowed to post in the forums. Not even in Meet Opponents and the General forum.

What's it with semantics and some of you cowboys. If we wanted grammar 101 we would have logged on to the appropriate website. If you have nothing related to the matter being discussed then leave the thread in peace.

Unless the post is a technical one about chess, the rating is irrelevant.

How about displaying peoples IQs instead ?
