In point of fact:

<<Messiah> I'd be b& for such a comment pretty much immediately for a week at least. Tell me how is in this cess pit a lack of double standards.>

Is that true? Only a week?!

Here's <Messiah> doing exactly that trying to goose <perf>:

D Root vs Browne, 1980 (kibitz #15)

Well, <Suzz>, what say you? Fair is fair after all...

<Assume that there is a chess related website, where one of the rules is the following: <The use of "sock puppet" accounts to circumvent disciplinary action taken by moderators, create a false impression of consensus or support, or stage conversations, is prohibited.>. Given that there are a handful of users who are getting censored and b& for the most minuscule misdemeanors, we can accept that rule breakers will get punished. Assume that the following list of members on this page are active and not punished/restricted/censored at all:

Beware, my child, that tho castist your fishnet stockings too widest, and landist fish and foul.

Please delete these libelous purported sock lists that befoul innocents.

You promised us all at least 3 alias accounts - and unless such accounts are clearly being used for nefarious purposes (like urging insurrection against the US govt, or promulgating anti-Semitic troupes) then they should be respected.

That means no cross-over harassment or stalking.

The puppet master <zanzibar> behind stone free or die should have been banned forever from this website long ago.

There is another chessgames double standard: Why is <zanzibar> allowed to repeatedly repeatedly repeatedly change the names of accounts AND pretend to be a new member?? Going back and forth, forth and back, back and forth is a dishonest disguise to use for harassment as Fredthebear and others have experienced for years. It's no secret that z is ALWAYZ manipulating the guidelines for personal gain to use as a weapon against other members. CGs greatly lacks fairness and consistency with all its members.

His strategy is less of a bear and more of a bully skunk - i.e. whenever he feels offended or is caught in the wrong he creates a big stink, and then starts stalking his adversary from forum to forum.

perv'z a coward who Refusez to allow us to respond there with the truth -- we're blocked from correcting his false propaganda. It's more of the double standard of unfairness -- the CGs guidelines, including forum guidelines, don't apply to that cyberbully editor. Of course, the public is allowed to see perv's forum, unlike ftb's forum (which just began last year and is usually closed anyway, but CGs has unfairly restricted the account).

One might guess who the devil-paying perv is slagging as the <spawn of satan> today:

<perfidious: <junior pharisee> has come to carry water for his boy <spawn of satan>.

perfidious: <spawn of satan> coming it over with the Scriptures. It might be amusing if it were not thoroughly pernicious.

<fredthejackal>, you cheering him on? <antichrist>, how 'bout you? <ohiyuk>, ya getting a good word in there on the way?>

<perfidious: One is very nearly tempted to give actual credence to such a great expert on abuse and shame as <gina, heart attack giver>, inasmuch as his black, masochistic heart yearns for both. Ain't that so, <spawn of satan>?>

puffy never gets tired of rolling out his daily rolodex of rehashed insults. Orange face from outer space needs a new gig w/fresh material and makeup. There's no doubt Sunny AlS is the cause of global warming.

^ ^ ^

As expected, there's another lie from <stone free or die>. It just goes on and on and on. <Z legend of CG> pretending to be all innocent, yet famous for lying, off-topic trash posting, quick to the draw self-fulfilling conclusions, erroneous chess posts if Z bothers at all, and harassing other members daily. Z luvs to be involved in the controversy for the negative attention. No need to thank ftb for giving you some desired affection, sfod.

Oh, the post-modern-irony!

<perfy: [...] Well done, <fredcoprophile>!>

One should wonder whether this is a severe violation of the rules. I am regularly b& for at the very least half-one days if I dare to mention anything. Do not misunderstand me, I don't necessarily want the very same treatment as this individual gets, just I am perplexed how this place became such a cess pit and why these foul and malicious actors are not removed promptly.

It is acceptable to criticize other members if done in a civil way; however:

perfidious chessforum

Hey Editor :

STOP deleting my legitimate posts.

I AM entitled to my opinion.

perfidious DID tell a lie - he put words in my mouth that I NEVER SAID. Tata Steel Masters (2024) (kibitz #460)

I HAVE EVERY RIGHT TO DEFEND MYSELF since the monitors here allow that jackass to attack and misrepresent me non-stop and I get NO SUPPORT from CGs.

I think not.

Here's the racket:

Monitors allows the #1 troll master and cyberbully pal to harass FTB non-stop for years. Their personal attacks are allowed; monitors do next-to-nothing to stop such. A third cyberstalker monitor is waiting in the weeds -- they're all buddies. Regardless of what FTB posts in response to the lies and personal attacks, that third cyberstalker monitor is going to use that as an excuse to carve up FTB's account again with suspension. Truth be damned. FTB is not allowed to defend himself, and the monitors refuse to defend FTB. This scheme is so upside down it feels like a something sinister is in the works for the company.

Fredthebear has EVERY RIGHT to defend himself.

Fredthebear has EVERY RIGHT to his chess opinions and mismanagement opinions.

Fredthebear has EVERY RIGHT to post on the same page as zanzibar and perfidious, and to respond to their falsehoods.

Fredthebear has EVERY RIGHT to point out dishonesty and innacuracy, to set the record straight.

Fredthebear has EVERY RIGHT to equal treatment by all monitors --- the same treatment free of harassment given to the troll master, sock puppets, and cyberbullies. Why is that group given free reign to harass???

Fredthebear has EVERY RIGHT to be free of routine harassment in the forums.

Fredthebear has EVERY RIGHT to a fully functional PAID account free of targeting, harassment, carvings, disabling of account functions, needless suspensions, explanation of suspensions, reversal of suspensions, and prompt responses to questions from management. Punishments with silence on management's part is entirely unacceptable.

Targeting, Cyber Stalking, Discrimination, and Account Dismemberment is WRONG!!

Pay close attention to this post - it is a serious programming screw up: Chessgames Home Page

Notice that the name of the links ALL say Chessgames Home Page: Chessgames Home Page

Naturally, there has been no response to the post. The programmer is way, way off course, so much so that bad intentions could be the cause.

Here's a partial example from one of my targeted collections:

The links say Chessgames Home Page. Having just one general name under the programmer's control makes it easy for the programmer to permanently maim tens of thousands of member accounts -- a deliberate programmer screw up to "fix" a screw up far broader and much, much worse than the disappearing fiasco on Kenneth Rogoff.

I know firsthand how deliberately altered programming has been used to hack, alter, restrict, reduce and suspended my account. My paid account has been battered like no other! It's quite likely that these unaccounted-for programming actions are being taken without your approval or awareness.
