And it is not just that, it is not that easy to be the first to ask in a silent room (psychologically). Or more scientifically spoken, chatter assures you that this communication channel is open the same as the occasional chat about the weather in real life gives you the opportunity to start some more important communication, i.e. it fulfils what Roman Jakobson calls the phatic function (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jakobson%2 ... f_language).

Seriously, if the KGS admins don't do something about it, the EGR will be also a den of trolls, orcs, zombies and vampires.

Since you're so concerned about trolling, can you explain to what purpose did you put "Hikaru No Go is a dull and childish TV Show!" in your signature?

Is playing go supposed to mean you are an intellectual ?

Hence, stupid conversations by other players (who may be of higher rank) in the egr offend some of you guys that much.

Please find some other ways of massaging your ego.

I don't think children should be allowed to have fun. Lets ban everyone from having fun! From now on, only dan players can discuss joseki variations in the EGR and that's it.
