Can anyone tell me exactly what this “ community clean up “ group have actually achieved in this direction ! 🤷♂️so far all I’ve seen is a load of rhetoric ......as the old saying goes “ action speaks louder than words “
Agreed, eating fettuccine at Vincenzo’s would send a much stronger message rather than nattering on about change.

Well, they created a club and made a lot of rules...

Well, it's the mods' job to police the forums. As best I can figure, the club's purpose (other than telling themselves how great they are) is to be a middleman between the "bad guys" and the mods. Whether they're "helping" the mods or creating an extra layer of friction is subject to interpretation.

If I wasn't so lazy, I might consider forming my own club. It would be the BETO club, which stands for "Be Excellent To Others". (A blatant ripoff from Bryan Lunduke.) Everyone could join, and the only rule would be to try to adhere to the name of the club. If anyone asked, "What do we do?", I'd just say, "What's the name of the club?" I guess if we wanted to do something, we could give gold stars or attaboys (attagirls?) to people for being nice or helpful. (The gold stars would be sort of like the meaningless points awarded in "Whose Line Is It Anyway?") Maybe we could even have tiered membership levels, but I'm not sure about that one.
(I'm not sure if this idea is any good, but if anyone wants to run with it, be my guest.)
I think people need to learn the difference between jokes and spam. And perhaps even the intentions behind them. See, fettuccine at Vincenzo’s started out as a spam I will admit. However, it’s created some laughter and I’ve made friends over it and it’s diffused a little tension here and there. And sure people are gonna find it annoying when they don’t get it, this weirdo is randomly spreading his love of Italian food on a chess site, but the deeper you go fo into the whys of people the better things will be. Thanks for the welcoming back guys, much appreciated👍🏿

Maybe the owner of Vincenzo's could hire the Community Cleanup crew to bus tables there.
Unfortunately this is my last fettuccine post so that I don’t get muted again. I’ll just stick with food in general lol
