Yes, yes, and double yes. You got to the heart of the matter my friend!
Sore Losers Are The Real McCoy!
Sort:
Sore losers, and eccentric chessnuts, droll on and on about nothing worth reading.
Present company excluded, of course. 
Actual sore losers are best ignored -- they have their heads up their arses.
End of story.
Sore losers are the best kind. They let you know what kind of dick you are like the flute from over the pond.
you mean what kind of d- they are not what kind of dick you are right Senator?
Who's McCoy anyway?
Don't you just love pissing matches across the pond?
Indeed, we have so many to choose from -- a cornacopia of choices. 
Holyshit knows how to celebrate his wins.
Sore loosers send trophies to winners with an insult for the title.
heckuva idea
zborg u have earned the distinction of being blocked from all of my future threads, you are BLOCKED sir!
Sore losers are really entertaining when they hop on the forums & post about it. It's fun reading all the whining about it.
and senator i sensed your hostility from the start and you are blocked as well. Stick to the boring threads!

I've never heard that, it sounds funny. Something like "Idiot of the year award" or "cheater extraordinaire" maybe.
There's also a second place trophy which seems made for trolling. "Winning isn't everything, and draws are boring!"

I have a favorite kind of loser. The person who tries to tell me how I won the actual game, but I really got beat.
Rather annoying!
yes chbor i knew a few exactly of that variety!
I've never sent a trophy & haven't paid attention upon recieving them. I don't see the point of them for free games on a chess site. So you don't get to title them yourself, they have titles already?
The point I tried to make, to counter what the OP said, was that not all sore or bad losers behave badly towards their opponents. This point seems, as in most threads on this site, to have been lost. We must all have played against bad losers, who gave no indication of this aspect of their personalities. Further, to repeat my previous point, you don't get to the top in any sport or game without finding losing a bitter pill.
Sore losers are not able to congratulate their winning opponent on playing well so they choose to try to upset them either with insults or wasting time with repeated disconnections, letting the clock run down etc. I used to post them a note telling they to wake up to them self, but then I realised that actually gives them satisfaction, they want to upset you. So I found the best solution is to post them a note saying something like “OMG cannot believe I actually beat a player like you. Thank you so much for the really great game that was heaps of fun would you please play with me again
.” Have the last laugh by getting up their nose.
Of course I don’t like losing and am very competitive but if you can’t handle it and resort to sore loser tactics as we say in Australia “Go and stand in front of the mirror and take a long hard look at yourself.”
