Why do you think something's happened to him?

This post seems ominous. I was hoping someone would just say he’s doing so and so. Or he would pop in or something. I haven’t seen him around. I looked at chess.com and he’s been logged off for 5 days. I just tried looking at unstuck , doesn’t looked like he posted there either. So those are the only places I know him in. I like the guy a lot and had hoped to draw him into a convo on here so I hope he’s alright.

Well, it's probably a little early to worry too much. I've heard that some people are able to stay away from sites for a week or more at a time. Seems weird to me, but to each their own.

Haha, I'm good, just lurking for a bit. Had a few bits going on at work & life lately, so just not as much time to get drunk and goof off on the forums as before The concern is appreciated.

Good for you and good luck to you. I can't imagine anyone looking back and being happy with the time wasted arguing with self centered pricks.

Actually - my AMA thread meant a lot to me. That was kinda my valediction. It was actually quite important to me, and tame_deuces let me run it. Thank you for that.

But now, I am gone, bros. Sorry.
04-16-2021 , 12:07 AM
I would like to say - there are a lot of smart people on this forum. People I agree with, people I disagree with. Just a lot of good people.

And then there is chez.

I was concerned but only so much. I was just like hey where’s d2-e4 , and then hey.... where is d2e4?

Anyway, have fun.

Some trolling posts with little content was removed from the police brutality thread.
04-16-2021 , 08:02 PM
Police brutality thread has been temporarily locked, since people seem unable to not insult eachother, flamebait or troll.

It will be re-opened later. Do not repeat talking points from that thread here.

She's not worth trading all this for.

You're fine; he was obviously talking about me.

I did not see the "In other news" thread before making my spring lc thread. Feel free to delete mine as the other one would work.

Is it later yet?
04-18-2021 , 08:39 AM
Yes, it has been re-opened. I also cleaned up a post in this thread, since I explicitly told people not to repeat talking points from that thread here.

Yeah, my bad forums. I can’t really help it.

At some point, a poster's views can become so toxic that it's difficult to describe them accurately without being trollish or flamebaity.
