Sorry, i said i wouldn't argue any more. I have one more thing to say.

Everyone wants this problemfixed because it is against "the official rule". That's all well and good, but why is it the rule? If I use my 2, preventing me from using my 6 when i otherwise could have, why shouldn't i be able to? I know, it might be an unfair advantage against "the rule", but so what? If I want to move 2 pips when i could move 8, why not let me?

Well.. That is a VERY interesting question, Kevin. I definitely don't know the answer. But when it comes to a very popular, widely played game such as this one, there NEEDS to be some standards. And for whatever reason, THAT rule is part of the accepted standards.
If the scenerio you described was allowed to happen, and was generally accepted as allowed to happen, then I would be quite happy with it. I an a complete game addict (as I'm sure you are too) and part of the FUN in playing a game is the ways in which the rules sometimes work FOR you and sometimes work AGAINST you... Its part of what is beautiful about games. (LOL .. corny, I KNOW... but I just absolutely LOVE games!)

It brings up an interesting topic. Well, interesting to me, because I don't much about it. But, how DO game rules get changed? or get accepted? DO they EVER get changed?

I'm glad you asked that question of "Why?" .. It got me thinking. I may have to do some research.. or does anyone have some answers?

But regardless.. as I said, with games of such huge popularity as Backgammon, at some point there NEEDS to be some standards. And that is one of the BASIC rules of backgammon. And being the QUALITY site that I believe this is, I would like to see it comply with the rules.
It certainly WON'T drive me off if it doesn't though.

I will tell you Kevin why you should not be able to move your 2 instead of your 6 if it suits you. It is simple, those are the rules and this one is fundamental to the game. Clearly your skill level does not extend to comprehend why that is so but rules are not changed to suit your knowledge of the game. Maybe you and I should play chess and I will argue that maybe I should not be checkmated even when I am as it "suits me" not to be? As for the argument players who dont like it should design their own site, you are missing the point. This is not a complaint it is simply drawing it to the designer of this site's attention who may not realise the software is doing this. With or wiithout the rule implemented the better players will still find their way to the top, it would just be better if we were playing the game to the rules is all.

you're absolutely right.
we should all do what is best for you, since obviously you are the center of the universe.
if you tried that in a real life game, people would toss you out the door. ( real life players hate cheaters )
now grow up and stop whining
