Default When is it appropriate to ban a player from a chess club?

No test. If you've been playing at a club for more than a month and have
met and spoken with everybody and can't spot the asshole.....

......then you're it.

Regards,

Matt

Is there a standardized test for assholism? Do
the club officials have to take the test too?

Um, no. You ban people so that the people who are already IN your club
don't quit because they can't stand having to deal with obnoxious
