P.S.: I didn't have time to reply when another dark post appeared. Roma, you are an unfortunate person. Thank you for bringing enlightenment through darkness.
Yes, and there was no intention to enlighten you. You don't seem to be interested in picking up a rifle.

I'm starting to think about announcing "Politics-free weekends in the forum," and deleting all political posts without looking at them. Focus on the game, not on politics.

Write something else about Russia and Putin. It’s easier to just talk about politics.

You could also suggest a game with a handicap, but I'm almost certain they won't agree to it.
Although, as I see it, wagering is introduced to weed out the weak.

Then wouldn't it be easier to just say that you only want to play against top players? Many people do that. There used to be an old forum, I don't remember the name, where almost all games were played for money, and what did it lead to? New players would come in, watch, maybe lose some money, and leave, and eventually the forum withered away.
What difference does it make how it was in a place you can't even remember the name of? Here, 99% of players just play for fun. Besides Bishop and Gomunguls, I haven't seen anyone else who only wants to play for stakes. I think there are only about 4 such people out of the total pool, which won't affect the forum in any way.

No, why not? Let's say a 100-point rating difference adds +1 to the counter-bet. For example, if players with ratings of 1900 and 1700 are playing, the match would be 1 to 3, meaning the stronger player receives 1 ruble if they win and lose 3 if they lose. This incentive could attract weaker opponents. Although, as I see it, introducing betting is intended to weed out weaker players.
This scheme won't work because the Hv rating is not objective due to several reasons.

I know at least 3 local players who write in their ads that they play for stakes. I'm just glad that 99% of people here play just for fun; the main thing is that playing for stakes doesn't turn into an epidemic.
Don't worry, I'll always be ready to play with you for fun ;)
