Payout? 60% vs. a pair who habitually fail to score 30% on the session is a gift? 40% vs. Meckwell is a penalty?

If there is a comparable case which is in worse shape scorewise (only looking at the artificial scores...), that can be evened out by PPs. Let them complain. And yes, I get paid. If they don`t return, I can live with that. What I can`t live with is having others stay off because they are sick and tired by wrongdoers being pampered and coddled, and that is the bigger number in the long run. Somebody makes a fuss or throws a tantrum? The door is over there, I trust you can find the way. Don`t go to the trouble of coming back. Robert, you have some knack of insulting people, practically effortlessly. I think _you_ have to reward them so they come back. Sven doesn`t, and neither do I. What I have to do, and will do right after hitting the "send" button is to put you on my ignore list. I love good email-clients. I am sick and tired of having you insult anyone who diagrees with you. But I have good news for you. I am not going to disagree with you in the future. I will not learn what your opinion is. I don`t care. Reality.
