    It is true and you better learn it. Bottom line is that if a majority of the subscribers to this site took it to their collective minds and said to Russ/ et al - " limit the non-sub parasites to the help and chess forums or we don't renew" - guess what would happen given that most of us could run a couple of terms just on our outstanding games / tourneys.

    So you just keep a quiet reserve here T33, until you grow up.

    if a majority of the the timeforCHESS players decided to drop chess, and play SNAP! then russ would be obliged to give us a snap site ... SO WHAT ?

    (personally i think people who make mistakes need to grow younger so that they can see the world around them more, and live in their preconceived ideas less)

    A Posts to Recs ratio might be a good alternative, which couldn't promote spam.

    But then, do we really care?

    we can play snap in the forums ... and stop playing chess .... but why would we?

    (playing terminal games of chess where we piss off the site admin is equally dysfuncshonaL)

    12 megametres is a long way from aussie-land skeeter ... what country are you in? and how do us australians catch your inbred diseases over such an expanse?

    You're just blathering again flex. If a large number of us decided to stop paying and keep playing then I'm sure we could get policy changed around here. Its that simple.

    Getting offside with admin has nothing to do with nothing. Being financially viable has everything to do with everything. That was my point but understandably you missed it because you're head is up your arse most of the time.
