GAME ANALYSIS - Analyze this game - with your opponent | alone

-N- has left the chat.

Well, thanks for sharing...it's always good to give nuts the widest coverage possible...

haha probably just mad that you wouldnt talk to him

That is obscene and vulgar and completely inappropriate, especially for a site with children on it; Thank you for posting it so that we can all say how vulgar it is.

I tend to believe such behaviour has less to do with taking chess seriously than with an individual's lack of maturity, insecurity and inability to comprehend that anonymity isn't synonymous with freedom from integrity. A player who takes the game seriously respects the game and his opponent.

its kinda funny though

+1

...until said opponent proves s/he is a cretin undeserving of respect, of course

Come to think of it, maybe that's who Samantha was playing...

Flooding the chat? Offensive chat? Against the rules. -N- should have been banned at least temporarily from the chat (-N- must have got lucky and chess.com staff weren't looking).
