I agree @TeacherOfPain. By the way, is it just me or did the last post's formatting get messed up badly?

Not just you

Comparing online ratings with OTB ratings is like trying to figure out how you'd play in the NCAA from a pickup game. Players who have played organized basketball will usually thrive in pickup games but it doesn't necessarily work the other way around. Playing in an OTB tournament adds psychological factors that don't exist in online chess. My advice is to start a USCF Affiliate in your area and if we're ever able to get back to associating with people, organize tournaments and play! It's not too difficult to become a USCF TD and there's a lot of free software you can download to organize the rounds. Pickup games are fun, but it's nothing like organized basketball.

What the? Why are you congratulating us? The whole point of making an account is to play on it. second, why are you telling us that you are too busy typing?

TeacherOfPain

I don't know maybe he was trying to tell us his schedule probably?

Regardless yes @Absorbingentrance, I messed up my writing earlier definently was an accident and when I pressed send, didn't realize it was messed up until afterwards. Next time I won't make that mistake though.

But yeah, hopefully we answered cleavleand tribe's answer, being a help and having helpful people to tell important information is good for everyone, regardless of how skilled or experienced.

2 things. one: How in the world did you do that? two: Its OTB (Over The Board) not OBT for whoever wrote that

TeacherOfPain

was an accident for 1, and was a mistake for 2. 

PILOTOXOMXD

Yeah, but for #1, do you remember how you did it? If so, can you teach me?

TeacherOfPain

Lol, well I guess so, so what I did was I copy and pasted the name of the user and there flag and then i put it in the post and then after that wrote my message to the right side of it. I mean it was a terrible flaw so I can't remember exactly how I did it but I think that is what I did. :

1.Copy paste username and flag. 

2,Space out it and write info. on the middle of the post.

3. Write as much as possible so it overflows the post and makes a laggy showing in the post. 

Hopefully it was helpful.
