so are you going to accept his challenge?
No. From a PM from him (tried to reason with him -- talk about an exercise in futility): "Keep your points and face the mods."
And as I told Dom, my son plays a ton of wargames, both board games and online. Lux Delux...hello? I can tell him the basic strategy for each map in like 30 seconds. From there, if you've played other games like this, the actual mechanics of CC are no big deal.

"You play too well to be new" basically. In a 1v1. That's pretty lame.
What I can't figure out is why on earth I would even set up a multi. I have a premium account. It's not a rank issue -- I just went from corporal to captain in a matter of a couple of weeks just by choosing my games more carefully and playing a little less recklessly -- beating a question mark a game or two would hardly be worth the trouble. Plus, I didn't play him in any games -- told him I'd do team games with him once he got ranked. And after over 5,000 games completed here, why on earth would I risk it? I've got a solid reputation here -- on the old rating system, in fact, I had I think the 2nd-highest number of positive ratings. I'd have to be completely irrational/stupid to set up a multi.

No doubt. What can I do? Is that abuse? Or does my son just give him all 1 stars and that's it? What do you do about someone like DomQuebec, who's pretty much a prick to everyone, but just never quite crosses the letter of the law. CC would be a much better place without him. I mean, come on... the guy wears his bad reputation like a freakin' badge of honor. Have you looked at his profile? "Location:On your ignore list."
Sorry if I'm a bit riled up about this. I get testy when my own honor gets challenged, but when you start attacking my son, that's just over the line, and I'll do whatever I can to protect him. Plus now I have to convince him that CC is worth sticking around for and that DQ is the rare exception, not the rule.
