emoticon "horsey" what does that mean?

@Triangel

Of course it goes without saying that "All people are X" and "All people are NOT X" are both wrong. However, one should be able to talk about general truisms without having to preface every remark with a disclaimer that it doesn't apply to all chess players. However, the point I'm making that out of 2000 blitz games I got one "Good Game" is important because that's such an overwhelming number and it certainly doesn't speak to the graciousness of those 2000 players in victory and defeat.

Proportions are important and 1 out of 2000 is 0.05 percent. I appreciate you reaching out to me and I'm glad you're enjoying better experiences. I'm perfectly content to just play. It meets my needs and desires. I'm glad the site is here.

Thank you for the explanation!

@Eleuthero - "Chess is a beautiful game that attracts VERY few beautiful souls."

Ironic, much?

I like to think of the horsey as meaning a very passionate Chess post, and I am incidentally very passionate about this.

now I know:

King - opinion of a wise guy

Queen - you did a mistake but i will not tell you why!

Horsey - Let s have some harmoney !

@Triangel

I don't understand your excuse-making for people who don't say something nice after a game. It's almost like you're saying there's something COMPELLING people to move on to other games as quickly as possible. That's just a fallacy. Manners are important and I must say there's fewer of them now than in my youth.

What are you talking about "a small minority that [I] don't like"? How is 1999 players out of 2000 a "minority"? I give up completely on this thread and maybe the entire Forum. People say stuff that's either nonsensical or it's a non sequitur.

Frankly, I don't know what you or most of my respondents are replying to because it's either a straw man fallacy, a non sequitur, or putting words in my mouth that I never said. You did number 1 and 3. I've had enough of this.

"Manners are important" I don't think anger and insults are good manners. I think you have bad manners.

@Eleuthero My dear friend, I think you didn't understand that there was never any ill-intent by anyone in this thread, and everyone was just joking. It also happened with you once before. The reason we couldn't tell OP the meaning of Horsey was because we don't even know it ourselves. It was not like we wanted him to not know the actual meaning of the emoticon ;) .
