People often try to bully me.I don't mean here,I mean in general.They think I am a soft touch.I might not be yet a master at chess but I know where to hit these kind.They want a reaction,any will do and they then pick up the threads.I always ignore them.Problem is they go find another victim.The antidote to this is starve them of any reaction.

I had the security of my family and life threatened on another chess site once. One thing I will not do is give them what they want, which is most likely a resignation or time out. I put them on my ignore list and immediately contacted the webmaster. He e-mailed me within a few hours saying he has taken all messaging privileges away from the player. Messaging is a privilege of the site, not a right and should be taken away if abused. We are here to play chess, not see unappropriate text being displayed on our monitors.

The use of vulgar language has been shown to be a sign of low intelligence. Whenever some one insults me online I take great comfort in remembering this (but not as much satisfaction as kicking their butt to Egypt and back). 😀
