Why not make it mandatory for everyone to declare who they actually really
are in their profiles posting their current OTB grade (if they have one).
Liars and posers would soon be expsed.
That would go a long long way to preventing players from considering using a box
and perhaps stop some of mud slinging.
I cannot see why chess players are so shy. Have they no ego?
I'd be very proud to be the creator of some of the games I've seen on here.
(Hmmm....Perhaps I have just answered my own question).
But be careful how you answer, because if you reply in the negative then
everyone will think you have something to hide.
So if you want to reply then you have to reveal yourself and your OTB grade.
I have just created the unanswerable thread.

Originally posted by greenpawn34I like having an anonymous ID. I wouldn't play here if you made me tell you who I really was.

But two of the biggest cheats on the site, with just one loss apiece, both give their real names in their RHP handle (or whatever it's called).
If fact that's been suggested to me as the reason that one of these hasn't been banned despite massive evidence that he is a cheat - because it would be like saying "<real name> is a cheat" rather than "<witty internet name> is a cheat", which might leave the site owners open to litigation.
