I do not think it is particularly difficult for administrators themselves to identify the malefactor with reasonable certainty.

You could perhaps carry out a word search of the database based on unusually spelled or idiosyncratic word use/groups by the malefactor. If you have an apparently strong correlation, then warn and if necessary block their username and IP address. Maybe put a limit on accounts from the same IP address (for which you could make individual exceptions if necessary) to reduce sock puppet spamming.

Why not also auto-delete posts which have proscribed words which have no place in the proper discussion of chess (which is the actual purpose of this website)?

Unfortunately, it won't be wise to share how we followed the breadcrumbs in hopes future hackers make the same mistake.
I will teamviewer with Susan to show her exactly how I followed the trail.
Perhaps you can ask her later on how confident she is about the breadcrumb trail.

< tevemcd87: Hello all,
Since we began moderating, we've been getting a lot more server attacks. The attacker(s) left breadcrumbs that may help bring them to light. Please help us identify who this user(s) might be. Below are a couple restricted comments from different users that were muzzled in the past. These comments were linked to the attacker(s): <I've noticed that too. They've turned the support forum into a shyt on <Big Pawn> page. The Libs go there to scream at the sky about <Big Pawn>. They are screaming through the vaginas in complete defiance. Why, , why?>

<Consider me the of chessgames.com, standing up to the Pink Pusshyhat people who are now in charge of administration. This is my new hobby and I will make endless unnecessary work for the admins every day until they treat members fairly and enforce the rules equally and consistently, so as not to discriminate arbitrarily. Next up with the twitter and FB page. We are taking a baseball bat to those pages too...>

<GW> is this the "strong and manly" characteristic you are referring to? Millennials would probably consider this being more of a Karen than "strong and manly".>

The difference is I didn’t try to ban everyone because of the “toxic environment”!

The other difference is what I said was a description of the events going on.

It’s still the same. Example, you, <Steve> are just another lib crying about <gw> and <bp> on the support page. And what’s worse, is you playing the victim card, telling the world how your feelings are hurt and you won’t put up with it!

😂 😂

Steve, the other difference is that I’ve been marinating in what you would call a <toxic environment> for over a decade on the rogoff page, and I like it like that.

I don’t complain that my mangina hurts and cry like a little girl about the toxic masculinity!

Now it’s problem and solution time…

The real problem: I think the problem with you is you need an outlet. <gw> popped your bubble with his !!! HOMO ALERTS !!! and because you are an admin you think you can’t get in the ring and duke it out with the members, so that’s leaving you feeling upset by my toxic masculinity.

Solution: stop being a big, wet mangina and step into the ring and engage in some full contact political cage fighting. It’ll toughen you up. You’ll be able to express yourself, so you won’t feel like you have to delete and suspend people whose politics and religious views are different than your own.

Do you realize the same basic group of libs and right wingers have been crapping on each other, being toxic to each other, daily for over ten years on the rogoff page? Do you think we need your millennial sensitivities and woke values forced upon us?

Do you think we don’t want to fight every day?

I’ve been the lone voice of encouragement for Steve when everyone else was crapping on him. Go ahead, call me on it.

I just don’t think his super sensitive, effeminate feelings bubble should cancel free speech on cg, and he shouldn’t be deleting homo alerts just because he doesn’t want to tolerate my point of view. He shouldn’t be so freaking arrogant as to try to impose his woke millennial values on a group of members who have happily been bashing one another for over a decade.
