Hi. I am sure others are experiencing the same but too scared to say anything! I have noticed that more and more tournament directors are behaving omnipotent.I do understand they are running the tournies and may make their own rules hoewever insults and ill manners are unnecessary fromTDS as they are from players.One instance in particular. I signed up for a tournie,in round 2 i get a message saying if you dont add me as a friend you are OUT. Is that reasonable?

That seems like a very strange rule. Is it stated in the tournament description? Did they give a reason for it? I suppose you could follow them during the tourney, then unfriend them when it's done.

Tournament directors don't set the rules, the host of the tournament does, although these will often be the same person for free tourneys. BBO gives free tourney hosts quite a bit of lattitude.
