< Earlier Kibitzing  · PAGE 451 OF 451 ·  Later Kibitzing> Nov-25-25    stone free or die: <<steve> We made an update for this. let us know if the issue persists.> Sure. But can you give an indication why it was occurring (I ran into it more than just the once)? Nov-26-25    MissScarlett: To be fair, the recent changes to the editing features, meet with my approval. Nov-28-25    stone free or die: High praise indeed from our dear Ms. <Missy>. Nov-30-25    stone free or die: Today's (11/30/25) pun shows up fine on the game page: <"Non più Andrei, farfallone amoroso"> But the utf-8 handling is butchered on the <CG> homepage as: <Non più Andrei, farfallone amoroso> Nov-30-25    Rdb: <The Integrity: < Susan Freeman: <Rbd> <te Rdb: And <fsr>, i also very much appreciate the vibe between you and <keypusher> here in this forum 🙏 <susan freeman>, please make two politics forum.> If I ever did that,and I mean ever, rest assured nothing would be censored any where and noone would be banned as you previously suggested.> <Susan>, if you would please consider a *Whites Only* forum, I think it would be a fantastic compromise! This would obviously be an exclusive club, so there should be rules. 1. No jeety, stinky, poopy turds allowed in the forum 🙏 2. Serious, substantive and insightful commentary strongly encouraged 🙏 3. Absolutely no littering 🙏 4. No profanity (that's not censorship - all topics allowed, but this should be a dignified forum that beams excellence, not trash) 🙏 5. Posters without good humor strictly forbidden 🙏> What do you think , <Susan freeman> ? Did you consider this yet ? Nov-30-25    Susan Freeman: <Rbd> What part of <No> don't you understand? Dec-01-25    Rdb: <Susan Freeman: "What part of 'No' don't you understand?"> I understood every part of "no." However, that was before I explained how it could be an excellent business idea. I thought that once I explained how it could bring millions of dollars in revenue to cg.com, you might change your mind. The hateful bigotry that <"The Integrity" > regularly expresses in an uncouth, uneducated, and immature manner could attract the 4chan white Christian nationalist crowd if he gets the <"white-only" > politics forum he so rightfully wants. This, in turn, might bring millions of dollars in revenue to cg.com.. That is why I politely requested reconsideration. Thank you 🙏 Dec-01-25    OhioChessFan: Lorrie Morgan -Whay Part of No Don't You Understand? https://youtu.be/RTqS28mouxM?featur... Dec-01-25    Susan Freeman: <Rbd> It is obvious you are not familiar with US laws, and the civil liberties act of 1959. The hair brained idea of a white only forum not only cannot be enforced, but it is illegal. You can politely request for the final time, and please post on my profile page so as not to pollute this forum with what amounts to idle clutter. Dec-01-25    stone free or die: Can I get an acknowledgement that the utf-8 pun mishandling has at least been noted by an admin? In the interest of provoking a response(*) - It looks amateurish seeing a mangled pun on the homepage of the site. (*) I've noted the problem previously, within the last year at least. Dec-01-25    stevemcd87: <stone free or die: Can I get an acknowledgement that the utf-8 pun mishandling has at least been noted by an admin?> Yes, it's been noted. We usually fix it manually when it happens. Sorry we didn't get to it yesterday Dec-01-25    stone free or die: Thanks <stevemcd87> - though I don't think it should require a manual fix. Seems we did have a previous case, and will inevitably have a subsequent one as well. Why can't this be handled automatically? PS- Normally I just assume my posts on bugs are seen, and I'm actually detached enough to not totally care if they're ignored (being happy enough in the reporting effort, I am). But after a recent posting from another long-time user who I greatly respect - I think we should have an acknowledgement of bug reports. (I know your job isn't easy...) Dec-02-25    offramp: Are you getting a page prepared for this beautiful match, from Monaco? <Clash of Generations II> https://www.monaco-echecs.mc/about-... 3 Dec - 8 Dec 90'/40 moves + 30' + 30'' bonus Maxime Vachier-Lagrave (34) v Yagiz Kaan Erdogmus (14). Normally I'd expect the young player to win these generations matches, but here I think MVL will win all the games. Dec-02-25    MissScarlett: We anticipate its conclusion. Dec-03-25    offramp: <Chessgames.com will be unavailable December 03, 2025 from 11:30AM through 12:00PM ET for maintenance. We apologize for this inconvenience.> The maintenance is done by a single guy with long hair and glasses and a sandwich and three cans of Red Bull who owns a colossal monitor that takes up a whole desk. Dec-04-25    Susan Freeman: You Looked! LOL Dec-06-25    offramp: Any chance of live games from https://www.londonchessclassic.com/... ? Dec-07-25    gezafan: <Gottschalk: <to Webmaster> Psalm 120 1 I call on the LORD in my distress, and he answers me. 2 Save me, LORD, from lying lips and from deceitful tongues. 3 What will he do to you, and what more besides, you deceitful tongue? 4 He will punish you with a warrior’s sharp arrows, with burning coals of the broom bush. 5 Woe to me that I dwell in Meshek, that I live among the tents of Kedar! 6 Too long have I lived among those who hate peace. 7 I am for peace; but when I speak, they are for war.> Thanks for posting this <Gottweisheit> Dec-07-25    gezafan: <WannaBe: Total zero acknowledgement or post or 'anything' from the owner/management. Not even a "We saw your post and are working on it" Total s*****how of a web site. Sell it, the current management is not worthy of running a Chinese laundry or take out food, and I am Chinese. Disgraceful to the original founders.> This is a great site and the people who run it do a pretty good job. Chess players are lucky to have it! Dec-08-25    OhioChessFan: For our long running Player of the Day: Einar Gausel Surely this should be listed in his notable tournaments: Cappelle Open (2001) Dec-08-25    MissScarlett: When games are submitted under the UNORTHODOX game type, can the ECO be automatically set to 000? Otherwise all Chess960 games have to be updated manually. Dec-09-25    jnpope: <MissScarlett: When games are submitted under the UNORTHODOX game type, can the ECO be automatically set to 000? Otherwise all Chess960 games have to be updated manually.> This! Please. Dec-09-25    Susan Freeman: <<MissScarlett: When games are submitted under the UNORTHODOX game type, can the ECO be automatically set to 000? Otherwise all Chess960 games have to be updated manually.> I've alerted Steve Dec-10-25    The Integrity: How come when you delete a post, it doesn't automatically redirect you back to the forum you were posting in? Dec-10-25    MissScarlett: Sindarov vs Maghsoodloo: https://www.chessgames.com/perl/che... Maghsoodloo vs Sindarov: https://www.chessgames.com/perl/che... The game Sindarov vs P Maghsoodloo, 2025 is not registering in the second list.
