It appears to me that the contest for the best blogger can be considered drawn.

Yeah the pressures to be the Top Blogger takes a toll on a person it seem's.

I wonder if he did it on purpose!

I guess we will never know.

So, after all this, who's the best blogger? Is it decided?

Spectator94

Well I guess this is a good time to announce I was thinking about starting a blog!

Yeah I think you would make great blogs.

My suggestion would be to add pictures if you can lol.

It was a draw because they both got banned it seems.

Sure. I want to focus on World Championship games (pics work well) and the Sicilian Dragon.

What the heck is going on?  I'm pretty new here and both their blogs were decent for someone with my limited knowledge.  Now both of them are gone.  Can anyone recommend any blogs that are similar that I can follow?  I think I'll go back to page 3 and check out the blogs recommended by hicetunc and the post following his near the bottom of the page.  Wink

Hmm . . Funny. I still can go see Samanthas postings on chess.com. Her as my friend has disappeared but her remark is still in my notes.

I thought I would copy them all onto my Word program and repost them. There are just so many.

I am using my Kindle fire tablet.

I have made PaulEChess's content visible again, as it was also automatically made invisible when his account was disabled for cheating (same as Samantha212).

Banning someone and then using their © content without gaining their consent seems to potentially open chess.com to some legal problems, unless chess.com commisioned and/or paid for the content.

Well I didn't know either of them only been here a month but I said on the other thread that if Samantha cheated then good riddance. Same goes for Paul. It's nice to see this site doing their best to keep things clean.

Not sure I'm reading this correctly, but this section of the TOS seems to indicate that the site has the rights to any content posted by users in the public areas?

Thanks.  That's a big blanket but pretty much to the point.

Abraham Lincoln never said that. He tweeted about it multiple times that it was mis-attributed to him when it was actually Grant who said that during one of their meetings.

Yeah, he actually retweeted it, you're correct.

Is Paul E gone? say it aint so, just shows the chess.com noobs wouldn't know a decent blogger if they fell from the sky and landed smack bang in the middle of their chessboard clutching a letter of recommendation from Bobby Fischer still alive and well and hiding out in Iceland.
