Why oh Why ? Ladder Challenges

I just had a quick look at the challenges as a matter of interest and I found the same old silliness going on by the same old players who seem to spend most of their time and energy just trying to wind up others. If it was done in * jest * I could understand it, but its not, and is done for the sole purpose of just being plain nasty, vindictive and childish. Surely players as good as these people are at the pool game can look at themselves and think *Im better than this* !!! Its very sad and I for one am reluctant to even attempt top 10 because of the unnecessary hassle as I am sure others like me are. Why make the effort to try and get there if behind the scenes that *effort* is hindered due to the behavior of these silly people.

I've also noticed over and over again, "i invited, u refuse". Just for the record, many times an invite, for various reasons, will not show up to a player, this is often the case with me. The case may not be someone refusing to play, they may just not be getting the invite to begin with.
Very generous of you Jeff

 Always the Gentleman x ......
but unfortunately ... the reality is ..... still the Shenanigans prevail turning a simple request for a game into an all out *war* or an attempt to climb ladder into an unneccessary battle of wits !! Why ? Its a game pure and simple. Why cant everyone just play and enjoy the company of, in my humble opinion, a lovely bunch of people, in general, of whom I have had the pleasure to meet. Maybe then, some of the old die hards will return and even some new players will risk joining in! Thats my rant over lol  ) ps. hope that *dotty dose* is improving lol.

At GameColony.com you can play games of skill only -- play for free or play for $prizes!.
According to the statutes of most states in the United States, gambling is defined as: "risking something of value upon the outcome of a contest of chance". (Also see No Gambling!). The skill (as opposed to chance) is predominant in games of skill. Playing games of skill for $prizes, therefore, has nothing to do with gambling as it is not a contest of chance -- the more skillful player will win far more often. The chance element of a 'gamble' is either insignificant or missing. When players compete in tournaments or games of skill for $prizes -- it is "competitive entertainment" rather then "gambling". The more skilled winner will always win more matches, tournaments and $prizes.
