 | | OhioChessFan: <Jim Bartle> responding to a quote by Valery Salov on Salov's player page: "VS: ...because of the incredible number of shallow remarks, banalities, cheap rhetoric and plain disinformation produced by some WC candidates that are readily parroted by the journalists and maliciously thrown right into the face of a defenceless chess public." <JB: A role now having been assumed by chessgames kibitzers.> |

Jun-01-13 | | Karpova: Request to the <chessgames.com> admins: <LIFE Master AJ>: What about the Kopec game? What was wrong with it? Or all you guys just idiots? <moronovich>: Yes.Everyone, but you, is an idiot. <Everyone>: Why do you always pick on me? chessgames.com chessforum |

Jun-01-13 | | Karpova: Modes of communication:
<chessgames.com>: 2. Your corrections slips on P Ballard vs A J Goldsby, 2013 that read <wrong score, delete> and <correct it or delete it> are useless to us because you fail to describe what exactly you believe to be incorrect. If you'd like to see it corrected, please submit a new slip with the details. <LIFE Master AJ>: It appears that Ballard left out at least one move pair. Either he did this accidentally ... or he did it on purpose to make the game look better. Either way, the game score is incorrect. I have no responsibility to fix it. And if you guys want to keep a game score that is known to be wrong ... well that would be just typical for this website. <Robed.Bishop>: There are certainly times when I read LMAJ's posts on this forum that I must seriously consider the possibility that LMAJ has CG on ignore. chessgames.com chessforum Btw, the game in question was won by Balard which explains the eagerness to see it deleted. |

<LIFE Master AJ>: <Karpova> BTW, I have won dozens of awards for my websites. (CJA, USCF, EIW, etc.) What makes you even qualified to think you are even competent to render such a decision? Are you / have you ever served as a CJA judge? (<I have ... many times.>) Are you on an awards panel? (I have been on several.) Have you written any books? (Of course not!) Have you written any reviews of books? (Probably not, while I have written hundreds of book reviews.) By now, you should be getting the point. (You are not even qualified to make a value-based judgment.) May-26-13
<Abdel Irada> The ego has landed.

 | | TheAlchemist: A J Goldsby <LIFE Master AJ>: I do know that I simply will not allow the trolls to ruin this page ... and they would, were it not for my watchful eye. There is also around 30 people who are on my ignore list ... this means that they cannot post on this page. <enpassant jadoube>: Make it 31. |
