I deny that this is italian culture! italian culture is to have respect for the wishes of the opponent.

This is an assault. My intent is only to reaffirm a concept of culture that is missing in this world.
And this is the living proof of that shortcoming.
I think you still have a lot to learn about communication and fairplay.

You're joking, right?

You can analyze your game whenever you want, ...listen carefully, whenever you want.
A rematch is an act of fairplay.

> Chi lo dice ? Mi sembra una affermazione arbitraria. Mi spiace, non condivido. E' al più una prassi da circolo, non una questione di fair play, e non è affatto condivisa universalmente. Ho frequentato un circolo per un po' di tempo, e non ho mai visto nessuno lamentarsi se l'avversario si alzava dal tavolino e se ne andava via senza concedere la rivincita. Naturalmente, dopo aver salutato educatamente. Si gioca se se ne ha tempo e piacere, non per obbligo.

And it is by no means universally shared. When I attended a club, in my Italy, no one complained if one left without conceding a rematch. Of course, after politely saying goodbye. Play if you like, not out of obligation )

Evidentemente abbiamo parametri diversi in termini di cultura.
Il mio circolo è diverso e i miei insegnanti ci hanno insegnato il rispetto per l'avversario. Dovrebbe essere così ovunque.
Ed io farò di tutto, per insegnare questo spirito educativo ai giocatori di scacchi con cui giocherò le mie partite.
Insegnare il fairplay dovrebbe essere un obbligo.

I am Jackstone73 ...it's written up there but you didn't get the point.
Offering a rivincita (not only a rematch) is an act of fairplay.

Best of luck for your son, ...teaching good acts of fairplay is a good thing.

You didn't get the point, you are misrepresenting my thinking. This is what they taught me, to be fair, to be honest, to be good with people towards my opponents. Are you? can you say the same?

We got respect for the opponents, if they don't want to play, ok ....they don't play. But ....we offer that rematch, and they can accept it or they cannot accept it. They can choose.

Offering a rivincita is an act of fairplay, it's not an insult.

One day i hope you can understand this simple behavior.

Everyday that I talk to you, you make me stop wanting to be one of you but I 'm convinced that it 's only a matter of culture.
