    how many ways do you need me to answer
    I know you are a failed leader
    but come on
    I told you I don't vet
    I can't get inside a persons head like you apparently can
    he's like a star baseball player coming off a suspension
    of course he will play
    he has a right to play
    now ask me the same question again failed leader
    Stupid analogy.
    But I'll indulge it anyway.

    Baseball player coming off suspension will play.
    And will repeat the same behavior.
    And go right back on suspension.

    And clans have been suspended before.
    The precedent is there.
    And you have caught the attention of site administration.

    Have a nice day. 🙂

    There will be more McTayto tournament games coming soon.
    He keeps tossing games that are not lost to keep his rating in the 1100 range.
    I have no problem posting his games to the forum every few days.
    I’ll post some more in next couple days.

    Separate rating for clan games anyone ?

    Now that would be good to put to a vote!

    I think it is a great idea.

    I don't know though what would be involved in doing that.

    We are all well aware of the idea posted to site ideas.
    Several of us have been involved in this well before you joined this site.

    It really is shameful. I wonder when administration is going to put a stop to this nonsense. After being let back into clan play this what he does, which I think was to be expected.

    taking the piss but not doing anything that breaks the site rules so as not breaking site rules McTayto can't be considered to be cheating

    Maybe more of us could start doing that, then we'll have a bunch of really strong players in the 4- or 500s rating-wise. 😉

    Doesn't the ECF have a rating scale with much lower numbers than FIDE or USCF ratings?

    As for moderation, I think admin does care inasmuch as site admins or owners could be held responsible for what happens or is allowed to happen on their websites, depending on the jurisdiction -- but I'm thinking of illegal activity, copyright infringement, or outright bullying/cyberstalking -- not this kind of squabble over what constitutes fair play.
