i love bbo. honestly i didn't read the notification in the lobby about suspension. i fully endorse the view that deliberate slow play must be sicouraged. but the, the speed of the ystem response is not in control of the ardent bridge lover ! this also must be kept in mind before taking any punitive action against that player if it can somehow be determined that it was deliberate. second and perhaps more important is that he / she can be warned progressively that they r not playing the tournaments the hv registered in. this way one wd know that one shd be careful in registering in a tourney. for example, i register one hour before the start of the start and tell myself i l return to bbo in , say, 50 minutes and alas! i need sometimes fifteeen - twenty minutes to get connected!. fine u warn me but suspension may be after a couple of warnings. next time i l return 25 minutes earlier. this may be considered. afterall we love the game. one more thing -- some people don't resond when u ask them to pair up. they can simply respond by saying NO. instead of not RESPONDING. before i hang up pl lift suspension for all the guys since they hv suffered anyway for two days. next the l be all more careful.
