Are you one?

This thread is inappropriate IMO.

Agreed.

I agree. But I wonder if it would have been deemed inappropriate had it asked if and handsome men or any ugly people played go.

Or if there are any Asians playing Go.

This is not a dating site!

Assuming it were on topic and not offensive, wouldn't the better question be are there any women playing beautiful Go?

I'm a cute anime girl do I count

By some measures, that's a more offensive and worse question.

I find it interesting to see the rush to judgement here, with no-one asking the poster what he/she actually meant. And this on a site that supposedly prides itself on welcoming people whose first language is not English.

I don't know what was intended. It may be a troll, but it may be from someone whose native language tends to use a term for women where beautiful is tagged on otiosely but automatically. After all, there are many native speakers (the majority?) who routinely talk in many situations about men and ladies rather than men and women.

I can't speak for others, but rushing would entail not having seen the same behaviour elsewhere for years from the very same person.

Stop being so pedantic. /s

Perhaps a non-native English speaker posting in this section is really looking for introductions to beautiful female go players here and guidelines as to what to do thereafter.

All I can say, Ed, is that if you have enough free time to compile that post then you are not playing enough go.

I too recognised this user as the same as who posts similar "Any hot girls want to date me as I'm rich*/handsome/dan player" nonsense on KGS.
*Or wants advice on get rich quick schemes.
