You're right, there really is no courtesy 

Courtesy must be mututal if you'd like to ignore thats fine but I am not to take someones sarcasm or insult.


Perhaps the refined scholar would like to take my comment and show that

1) it was an insult

2) it was directed at him


haha I can asure you that my reply was directed at you aswell old chap since they were ever so similar.

dear me, what do you want a badge for your brilliant wit.

 

... anyways thanks for the replies guys, as I said, I recently joined and now I understand that this attitude seems to be a norm at chess.com

jon1d: you're right, but dont expect that here, Sir! majority of people here is so primitive that is amazing the fact that they can move the pieces according to chess rules. Your claim for courtesy are miles away out of reach for this subjects!

How many nominations so far? When will the voting process start?

Call me old-school, but isn't blocking a simple way out? The opportunity cost missed in making "ever-lasting friendships over a chat window" is outweighed by you playing without getting distracted by the niceties of whose mother  did what to whom.

The jerks out there far outclass you in the fine art of anti-courtesy so you might as well stop trying to compete with them.

Make that three nominations this week!

I know of three. Voting process? We are working on a voluteer basis right now, so the more volunteers the faster the ball gets rolling. As of right now we're looking at about a month.

The point of this thread, like many others, is not to actually discuss or arrive at a solution, but merely for the OP to rant a while and for everyone else to agree and/or worship him.

Uncanny! My wife calls this "listening" and expects me to do this often.

One-liners like this might make this the greatest thread ever.

Sorry to get serious for a moment.  The best way to receive courtesy is to give it.

If you don't receive it in the form you like, move on to other players.  You'll find like-minded players soon enough who you can play as often as you wish.

 

Now, back to the one-liners....


Well said!
