Why does the cyberbully <given to religious and political screeds>, stalking, insults, personal attacks think he is entitled to do so but nobody else can? He and his pal have manipulated CGs for years.

When he posts someone's derogatory name seven times in one day, he's provoking and stalking. It's just that simple.

<sScarlett: <Miss Susan>, be aware that, at some point, I'm going to employ all my feted charm to persuade you to allow <George Wallace> to return. #prodigalson>

Heh heh Not at all.

There is one right winger who posts in rogoff forum in a very effective/mature way. He disagrees without making it personal/'us vs them ' and gets along very well with all the constructive , honest posters in that forum

<George wallace>/<big pawn> was hell bent on making it 'us vs them ' every day in the ugliest way . For him , it was waging war - a very ugly war - through social media and he very explicitly declared so.

Chaos was inevitable

Only solution to chaos was what admins did - they took away insults/abuses from the posts of posters.

So , now , if some one has to continue waging war , all they can do is spam in a nonsensical way. Spam is nuisance but it does not antagonize people anywhere to that extent.

So , all is well now and chaos should not be allowed to arise again.

What's the explanation for this one?

<<KS> Great. Its about time>

Just adorable.

It's a bit surprising to see <Missy>'s request. My first thought was that <Missy> must be desperate for some attention - after all, an elite poster like <bippy> wouldn't deign to lower himself to correspond with the likes of us at this point.

After all, being banned was likely the best thing to ever happen to him, allowing him the opportunity to establish his own brand on 4chan (or 8chan, or 64chan ...).

So, unless <CG> slaughtered a fatted calf and threw him a hero's parade, he'd have to come slinking back to <CG> tarnished in disgrace (and with only three socks).

He'd never do that, would he?

He'd never do that, would he?>

And since <CG> has no custodial role in his upkeep, I doubt habeus corpus even applies.

Anyhow, why don't you seek him out on his new platform? He was mostly interested(*) in non-chess issues anyways (as he himself professed many times).

I've not heard you say that before. I was under the impression that <George Wallace> was banned for attacking the site (although the dynamics were never explained). Which is it? Or both?

If Daniel banned him, it was for a reason. He is toxic.> chessgames.com chessforum (kibitz #39161)

Hear , hear !

+100

People have suffered that abrasive manner , 'us vs them' attitude and worse for a long time.

Finally , admins have put things in order . Why would we want to replace that order with chaos again?

I seem to have hit upon a glitsch while using your Opening Explorer page. It concerns this position:

click for larger view

If I search for the position using what I'm sure must be the most common move order, 1.e4 e6 2.d4 d5 3.Nc3 c5, then it shows that your database has 56 games that have reached the position. In other words, when I search via the moves 1.e4 e6 2.d4 d5 3.Nc3, I come to the page Opening Explorer where 3...c5 is among the many third moves I can select. That is as it should be.

The problem is that when I search using the move order 1.d4 d5 2.Nc3 c5 3.e4, I arrive at the page Opening Explorer where the move 3...e6 is *not* featured, even though it would reach the diagrammed position.
