Banning players who forfeit too much

Can't we do something about this problem? I now stand to lose rating points by drawing against a serial forfeiter who now continues to play against me after their rating went down over 125 points, and mine has gone up as much. I entered the tournament figuring however that I would gain rating points, except my rating in the meantime has gone up around 125 points. THIS IS UNFAIR. I propose that anybody that forfeits more than one game in a month, that they get banned.

Hello George... I didn't see that, please send me details by email (I have many emails late, sorry).

I'd have to go through my games again. In any case, maybe they should banished to un-rated tournaments, and only if they finish that, they can play in rated tournaments again

ok I will try to find the particular instance that prompted this post (it's been a few weeks so I've forgotten) and let Thib know so he can perhaps take some kind of action
