Addition to the rules, mayhaps?
How about an addition to the rules for the river rats section that says "Please use a hand converter", for certain people who still don't understand?

this sounds like a great idea.
after all, I wouldn't dare posting a non converted HH if the rules said you need to convert.

It would at least be something we could quote and/or link to, though.

I think those posting without a converter should be given a comedy avatar by Kid.
I would suggest a pink pokemon but.......well......that's already taken.

if it needs a hand converter then yea but if some people don't know how to use one or just simply don't want to then thats their choice.
What about making a sticky that has hand converter sites that are free adn easy to use ?

its river rats, its the place people go to to shout, to scream, to vent, to get it outta their systems.
strategy posts should ALWAYS be converted in some way from the raw HH but river rats is a law upon itself.

It's been posted MANY times where to and how to use them, and yet we still get people posting like this.

Not using a converter is like bluffing into a dry sidepot: Its not against the rules, but it sure is fucking annoying. |

Agreed, I don't think anyone takes the strategy seriously in river rats posts, but in the hand analysis section it is damn annoying.
If everyone would BOOKMARK the converter sites NOW (I'll wait.....) there won't be a problem about not being able to find it etc.
