Aug-06-22 | | Rdb: As far as I am concerned , <z> stands for sanity/civility/order and deserves respect. Admins too are working for sanity/civility/order and so far they have done good job and finally there is some sanity/civility/order on rogoffland. So , i think , finally , admins and <z> are on same side and i see no reason for any tension between them . I look forward to harmony between admins and <z> Aliases of <z> not needed any more , it seems. . |

Aug-06-22 | | Rdb: People complaiined that admins showed favoritism and inconsistencies. And this time admins have made it clear that there won't be any favoritism and inconsistency. And they have walked the talk so far, as i see it 2) people complained that there is incivility/insanity/chaos in rogoffland And now admins are working to have civility/sanity/order in rogoffland. And so far , they have done very good job. 3) so , we would be very stupid if we do not support admins in all this. Finally , admins giving what people wanted despite pressure on their resources , why then should sane, civil people antagonise/disrespect admins, while admins at it ... . |

Aug-06-22 | | Rdb: : <nok: Can <pete85> or <steve87> explain why <Messiah> is censored? He does frat humor, not hate speech>
I think it is case of <lack of communication> If admins have time , then they should have an email communication with <Messiah> and in an atomosphere of mutual respect should sort out the issues. <Messiah> is a good guy , as i see it , so that communication should work , i hope , provided admins have time ....I guess plate of admine is pretty full presently |
|
Aug-06-22 | | Rdb: Things seem to be finally working out for those who don't like to see flame wars. This seems to be end game and we should not mess up, we should not do self goal . This is the time to show restraint/quiescence/calmness/self control/maturity... . |

Aug-07-22 | | Messiah: <petemcd85: <Messiah: Whatever I post gets censored.> <Messiah> we are reviewing your deletions and we will be sending you an email afterwards.> Please do not invest a lot of work into it. It does not necessarily worth it. |

Aug-09-22 | | Rdb: <saffuna: <gezafan: Liberal boomer = stupid.>
I got suspended this morning for asking how stupid someone is. Let's see if that's a general policy, or just for one side.> Awesome. Great job by admins so far.
I hope this time they clean it up thoroughly . No half measures. . |
|
Aug-09-22 | | Rdb: <perfidious: <zed>, there is no doubt in <ohiyuk>'s mind that God is on his side against the 'evil' libs--just ask him!> I hope <perfidious> too gets suspended for distorting name of <ohiochessfan> to <ohiyuk> <Perfidious> and <saffuna> are my 'buddies ' - i mean , like me they too are left wingers/ libs and they dislike Trump as much as i do When they get suspended they would ask the same rules to be applied to right wingers too. And i really wish that people stop distorting names in order to hurl insults . |

Aug-09-22 | | Rdb: <nok: <saffuna: I got suspended this morning for asking how stupid someone is.>
I got a post cut out for saying "idiot." I think it's easy for the mods to overdo it. Saying "dumb" or "stupid" isn't obscene or racist or something. It helps to rate the quality of an argument> Au contraire !
I am with admins on this one .
Because over the time it escalates
So , now that admins are cleaning it up , they should do it thoroughly - no half measures. They should not leave any habit not uprooted lest it should escalate later - if not uprooted , then from root , over the time , complete tree might grow . . |
|
Aug-15-22 | | Rdb: Part 2
So , <George Wallace> , at the most , you may request admins to formulate some new guideline/rule which make your daily venomous alert against the rules (if such a rule already does not exist) Here it is pertinent to remind that guideline number 7 came into existence much , much later - perhaps, after you made zillions of sock puppets. So , you may become the proud inspiration for the guideline number 8 as well , if needed . Pretty simple. |

Thank you for letting me know, It has been fixed. <MissScarlett: Niemann vs Duda, 2022 needs attention.>
Niemann vs Duda, 2022 |

Aug-19-22
 | | MissScarlett: <Niemann vs Duda, 2022> Score fixed, but not result. FTX Road to Miami (2022) also needs the treatment. Looks like all the games here are RAPID except blitz play-offs in QFs between Sevian-Wei and Xiong-Rapport. Then there's still the case of the missing Radjabov-Giri game. After that we might proceed to the Airthings Masters (2022). |

Aug-19-22 | | Shangri La: Chessgames has treated me unkindly. I was put on RESTRICTED KIBITZING my second day on but no reason was given. I have done nothing wrong. I was free to post on my first day August 1. All my posts but one have been deleted from August 2 to August 11. Why? What did I do wrong? Why delete my posts? Deletions are not explained on the Help page. Why so much hate? I want to be treated like other people. |
|
Aug-19-22
 | | petemcd85: Hello <Shangri La>, I'm sorry you feel that way, but it's definitely not what it seems.
You being put on RESTRICTED KIBITZING, had nothing to do with an admin putting you on 'restrictions'. I looked into your deletions and there has only been 1 deleted post since August 1st.
The problem is <Steve> figured out that <cg> has created an algorithm, that raises or lowers your "restrictions" level. Since we agree you have done nothing wrong as of right now <steve> has adjusted the program to lower your score, everyday, automatically. As of right now you shouldn't have any more problems kibitzing. If you do, just please inform us and we'll get back to you as soon as possible.
Thanks for your patience! |

Aug-19-22 | | chess.o.rama: perfidious just deleted the last three posts on Marshall - Rubinstein 1908. Why??? He is trying to cover up THE TRUTH! Why are managers allowed to abuse their powers so?? Marshall vs Rubinstein, 1908 Why such a ridiculous comment perfidious? Managing editors should be truthful and respectful.
I tried to respond sooner, but my post attempts were being blocked by MissScarlett. She UNFAIRLY assigned RESTRICTED KIBITZING for my summary above. The referenced August 11 posts are below for all to see. MissScarlett created this off-the-mark game pun on a Monday as a personal invitation reminder to her selected few to fly to London. Frank Sinatra has nothing to do with a 1908 chess game in Poland. As anyone can see, I told it like it happened and now I AM BEING PUNISHED forever. MissScarlett got caught abusing her privileges again. People freely comment on the pun of day here, but I am being punished for doing the same thing others do every day. MissScarlett loudly rejects the puns of others. She misused her authority for a "personal pun" that did not fit this game and then permanently punishes me for honest statements about her wrong doings. I get no hearing, no grievance -- just one post per day because that is what MissScarlett has decided to do against me for saying what happened. FYI: “Hazz” is harrylime on Kibitzer Café.
<<Aug-11-22 Susan Freeman: <Hazz> we could all meet at my place....or name your pub in Liverpool. I have sunshine.Aug-11-22
MissScarlett: Meet-up outside <Simpson's in the Strand> planned for 11 am, April 23rd 2023, for walking-tour/pub crawl of London's chess history. Invitation list (so far): i) Miss Scarlett;
ii) Miss Susan;
iii) Miss Sally;
iv) Hazz;

MissScarlett: The Strand is effectively <Ground Zero> of nineteenth-century chess history. Read the other day that van Gogh, who lived in London for a large part of 1873-1875, was a devotee of the illustrated newspaper, <The Graphic>, which was the main rival at the time to the <Illustrated London News>, at which Staunton worked till his death in 1874. Both papers' offices were located on the Strand, and van Gogh must have known them well, as he worked at Goupil's which was just off the Strand. The Strand was also home to such storied titles as the <Field>, <Era>, and <Bell's Life>. Within about a 20 minute radius, you have the sites of a host of iconic chess clubs/resorts - Westminster, St. George's, London, Percy, British, Philidorian, City of London, Goode's, Kling's, Gliddon's, etc. Should take about 8-9 hours, if we hurry. Day 2, we decamp to Chelsea/Brompton on the trail of the historical Staunton... > > A DOUBLE STANDARD CLEARLY EXISTS. MANAGING EDITORS SHOULD NOT ABUSE THEIR POWERS AND MISTREAT OTHERS ON THIS WEBSITE. REVENGE FOR TRUTH TELLING IS SO WRONG! Fair treatment for all!! Stop using RESTRICTED KIBITZING as a personal weapon! Make it right and remove all from RESTRICTED KIBITZING immediately. |

- All the games for <FTX Road to Miami> has been updated too Rapid. Except for the few Tie Breaking Blitz games. I've also noticed a few games missing from the FTX Road to Miami Tournament. We are working on finding out which games are missing and putting them up as soon as possible.
<Niemann vs Duda, 2022 Score fixed, but not result.>
- Problem has been fixed.
<After that we might proceed to the Airthings Masters (2022).>
- Posted this on my to-do list and we will get to it as soon as possible. Thanks!! |

 | | perfidious: User <fredthebear> has disappeared this month, only to be replaced by a platoon of sock puppets, thus engaging in the very practice he has deplored elsewhere, all whilst filling pages with lies and calumnies against this narrator. It is my belief that the socks are as follows:
<chess.o.rama>
<2071 S Milwaukee> <Noah Parking>
<Rip2632>
<Little Caezarz> <Shangri La> |

 | | MissScarlett: One of the Carlsen-Duda games, the third, I think, is missing from yesterday's match. |

 | | petemcd85: <MissScarlett: One of the Carlsen-Duda games, the third, I think, is missing from yesterday's match.> Yes <MissScarlett> I've seen a few rapid/blitz games missing from the <FTX Crypto Cup> as well. We are working on having all missing games, from the <FTX> tournaments uploaded as soon as possible. Thanks again! |

Aug-20-22 | | Little Caezarz: <Aug-13-22
perfidious: So far as I recall, there has recently been a quiet period here, with no posts being consigned to the dustbin.Aug-13-22 chess.o.rama: "posts being consigned to the dustbin"
Are these the members that are being censored?> Users have presented clear evidence that perfidious is involved in deleting posts and punishing users on a whim. Obviously select managers communicate off-screen and cover for one another. perfidious may not have final say but he has strong influence on the scalper. perfidious has a passel of henchman in his circle and he wants to control this website. He enjoys attacking other people. It's just wrong to punish users who make reasonable statements just because these select managers have the power to be cruel. 2701 S Milwaukee did not deserve to be treated so and neither did I. Chessgames managers are out-of-control punishing users who have done no wrong. Once a user is targeted by a manager, they swarm and sting the user repeatedly taking turns as I have experienced. These restrictions, deletions and suspensions are so very wrong. The users are being punished without trial but they did no wrong in the first place. perfidious is behind the recent deletions as users described but the evidence is being systematically deleted by him or the scalper. Once again we ask for help and just treatment. Select managers are cruel to users. |

 | | saffuna: This is really pretty funny. <Little Caezarz> rants against alleged unfair treatment. He makes these complaints by making the same post on multiple pages, violating guideline #2 in the process of claiming he's "done no wrong." |
|
Aug-21-22 | | Rdb: So, <George wallace> is complaining once again today in cg.com forum Admins have fixed rogoff forum and some people are unhappy. How many people are unhappy and complaining? Just one. Can you believe it ? Just one person unhappy and complaining that admins fixed rogoff forum ! So , <Z> was right all along that there is only one person (and two of his buddies who emulate him ) who is causing all problems at rogoffland. |
