Why would I block that guy he promises to resign as soon as he is down material.

Maybe your game is so boring it puts your opponent asleep and he's too sleepy to play another boring game with your boring self?

BLOCK THEM right away.  Sooner or later they won't be able to play anyone. 

You do realize, don't you, that blocking a player keeps them from playing YOU, not from playing other people. If you block everyone, sooner or later YOU won't have anyone to play. The rest of us have over 6,000,000 members to choose from.

so, in other words, are you encouraging his idea? Because I think it would be best for everyone if he did this.

That is the trouble with the world now, everyone thinks they are entitled, you think you are entitled to a rematch, the welfare crowd thinks they are entitled to a paycheck for sitting on their ass,The Honey BooBoo's of the world think they are entitled to their own TV show when they lack any talent and on and on. The Eagles once did a song that fits this perfectly Get Over It.

I am going to bet most people here already did that.

I believe you are taking the game of chess way too personally.  Bragging rights?  Revenge?  Come on.  Does it really make any difference at all if your next game is against the same person or a different person?  Does it really wound you so much that the guy that won might be feeling good about it?  This is just such a weird thing to me.

Mr. ImmortalGamer, some people just don't want to play again, and you have to accept that. Going around and blocking people left and right because they will not play with you is comparable to the behaviour of a 5 year old. Good day sir.

Why should a person be forced to rematch? Plus as much you block I'm pretty sure there are still thousands out there unblocked

I am quite certain I have been blocked by better players than him.Cool
