AN EMBARRASSING MOMENT? SHARE IT.
Sort:
At one time, a players got p*ssed off with me that he made a rude comment about me being too slow for him, even when i tried to explain my "games" situation i.e being on about 70 baords in like 6 tourney including my other challenge games- he said 'I shouldnt have joined 'quick players' tourney b'cos i'm slowing down the tourney but i replied him that i'm only here to have fun and this is not a life & death thing or a means to earn a living plus i have a life, then he got rude with me in his convo and i told him to bugger off and simply deactivated my chat. He didn't chat with me on the second board which was a sort of relief cos you just wanna play someone and probably get to know them a bit isn't it? lol.

I've been fortunate. I've haven't had a single cross word or bad experience from anyone I have played. It's a little different in the forums though where people are happy to say in email what they would never say face to face.
"Cross word"? Rabid_Dog? Goodness gracious. The only thing embarrassing is that this boring thread exists. Next time try to entertain, guys, instead of act "mopey" cause someone was RUDE to you once... "Oh no! How scary!"
YIKES.
.... babies.
I left my queen en prise and the bastard had the gall to capture it. I was furious!

Don't get embarrassed as some lower rated players (now) are really good players. They may have lower rating by default being a newcomer to the site. You are lucky that you chanced them. As a consolation watch how their rating change and be careful next time.

This is normal in chess so its okay to get furious. On the other hand if the other fellow thinks that the "sacrifice" will help his plan of winning the game he will go after it. Just be careful and not be overconfident next time

I wish that was the case... but sadly... I played poorly :-(

I completely agree
This one time I had gas in the testing center in college. 200 college students quietly taking their tests in a room the size of a football field.
Amazing acoustics in that place actually.

pleasures4life : is the question you're asking, about embarrassing moments ? or people being rude ?

Both of the "views" he agreed with before were consistent. If I were to "test" our friend RELee1865 I'd have to be like:
Oooooh you poor guys, was someone rude you to you widdle bwabies? Awwww why dwon't you shware your swad experiences of aw da times dat someone has bween wude do you?
Farking noobs. Go cry to your mothers, and in the future, if yo're going to start a thread, try and ensure it's full of win, instead of fail, okay?
I guess its true Rabid_Dog, people are a little more civil in their emails and messages than they are when on a one to one chat. :)

Well don't feel embarraced by that, cos you never know, this 'low rated players may be a new members on his/her way to the top just above you.
