Why do I get called a moron when I win?

OK, I'm goofing around playing some wild stuff in unrated games, and I drop a game to this guy,and he's silent. Then I whip out the blackmar diemer gambit, win in 20, and he calls me a moron. WTF? Personally, I hope this guy is actually intelligent. I dropped a game to him - I'd like to think that patzer though I may be, I don't drop games to morons.

Maybe he thought you were a moron cause most people beat him in 10 moves. :)

When I lose it isn't that bad. Usually just Camel ****er. Moron, though, that's insulting.

He probably saw that Qxg6 was mating and forgot about Qxe7

Just ask one of your friends to keep calling you a moron until you start laughing. Have any definition of moron you like, moron=more hair on top, moron=whatever, change the experience man! get out of the rat race!

You called moron but you got at least a trophy?

That sore loser may means you can win quicker by 14 ... Bxf6 leading to force mate/easy win :)

Anyway , sore loser usually be rude by their blunder.

Just ignore them. That's their attitude.

Why do you turn the chat on? ?

If you don't turn it on, they won't call you a "Moron."

I call myself "moron" alot (accompanied with *face palm*) when I find post mortem I had overlooked a forced mate or other winning tactics for myself. It's somehow more aggravating than losing because in the latter case I mostly can blame it on the other guy just being really good ...

More insulting to the guy who loses to you, if you think about it.

Hmmmm...I don't know if i have played any of you posters....i started playing in 07 to try and challenge my brain....i found i liked it.....i read one to two books and decided the proper(?) way to play was way to complicated for me.....i am often called names when i win or loose and am constantly told to "hurry up"...I simply turn off chat if people can't be civil....i figure if they find it beneath them to play someone who flies by the seat of their pants they can resign....it's a game
