Firstly, I am not a programmer, so I just don’t know HOW this is done, and secondly, even if I were one, I would consider such actions simply not correct on my part. I mean to interfere with the site's line of games, which, as I understand it, have some criteria for the implementation of the game by correspondence.

Well, as Fergus explained you are simply wrong on the second point: Creating Game Courier presets for their inventions is considered a task for the inventors here. Editors here already seem to be overloaded with their current tasks, considering the large backlog that exists for publishing submissions.

Creating a GC preset that does not enforce rules does not require any programming, and can already be used to play a game on line. Players can very well check the legality of their opponent's move themselves; if they play a chess game 'over the board' they would have to do that too.
