Now I remember why I never use the "Open Invite" function.

Could we please implement a feature that would allow the user to have his/her open invite to be picked up by only subscribers and non-provisionals? As much as I love deleting every other open invite I post, I would much prefer to click a box that would prohibit certain types of users from accepting the games.

Thanks.

Great idea.

I asked the same thing months ago. Got no support.

Good luck.

i agree. I dont have a problem with non-subs, but provisionals who leave after 5 moves piss me off.

It's mostly for Provisionals, not necessarily Non-Subs.

If you specify [via advanced options] any rating, [ie above 500] then provos can't accept them.

If you block all provisionals then new commers will have a hard time getting enough games to stop being provisionals. selecting only players with a high rating seems to give a similar result.

They can also play each other.
When I was a provisional I just put up open invites and they were soon accepted - I would envisage no change to that no matter what restrictions were used.
