Guidance on padding and "friendly" play

- padding (as defined on playchess is an illegal way of boosting your own ratings)
- playing numerous "friendly" games with the same person
- the implications if those "friendly" games are also rated

..yes i agree, the forums is full of clowns...ghastly low-life dwellers...topics
that as a gentleman i find quite inappropriate...etc...but not clowns...very smart people ( but some with very low life manners )...so back to clown alley...
