I've been doing yoga, really helps with my flexibility and relax.

I always get bugged by my parents to try yoga. Haven't tried it till now... I probably should.

Hello 

Colby missed you.

How come?

I always like having Hammer around.happy.png Yesterday, Bacon identified himself under his new account and I needed you to confirm his alleged moderator account @Godspawn. Do you know anything about this? Was Bacon actually a mod once?

Lord_Hammer

Yes, he was a mod. He was a mod on @Diakonia, and he was also @GodsPawn2016, but I dont think he was a mod on that account.

Interesting, I wonder why he stopped modding then? He said that he wasn't very good at it and that's why he chose to lay it all down. Kinda cool that he told the truth about that though lol.happy.png

What's going on in the forums?

The usual...

How is your chess doing?

Stagnant...I dont study anymore.

Had an interesting argument, lately?

No...

Something giving you trouble?

The way the world is over reacting to things.

What's the latest gossip?

No idea...

Hope i can share this issue on this forum:

I recently got muted for no reason....

I remember texting in the chat in game, "sh*t was that a blunder?".

Next, i got muted stating that- 'you have been muted for not following the community guidelines'.

But after reading the community guidelines, i dont believe i did not follow any guideline.

Hence, i believe to have been muted for no appropriate reason.

I emailed chess.com support about this but no one has replied....

I dont know what i should do about this.....

KetoOn1963

"sh*t was that a blunder?".

You cant figure out why you were muted?

sid0049

Yes the algorithm must have muted me.

But you should read the community guidelines

I have no idea which guideline i did not follow...

And the context of using the word was not inappopriate/vulgar.....

No...

You are currently having a very interesting argument. Interesting enough in fact, that I jumped in, as well.

The system automatically identifies certain keywords, I believe. "Sh*t" is one of them, so you were probably auto-muted. I wouldn't worry about it, just try to avoid profanity and obscure it if you absolutely must use it lol.happy.png

In what context were you using "sh*t"?

Our definition of interesting differs i guess :-)

Hmm.happy.png You have very interesting views, considering the time and climate we live in, these days.

good news free membership happy.png

I keep reading that all over, but it always turns out to be hoax or tied to specific conditions that involve signing up somewhere.

I'll get my Diamond Membership tomorrow. Let's see if I'll improve with unlimited access to chess.com's learning resources and video library. Are the videos any good? or better than YT content?

@Bacon I have seen a couple of your posts now and everything seems like the good old days. What changed?

I dont sugar coat things.  I dont allow all this over reaction to things to change me.  If some white people feel the need to apologize for being white?  That's on them.  If some think that tearing down statues somehow makes racism go away?  That's on them.  If acting like things in history didn't happen?  That's on them.   You know the last time pretending something didn't happen worked?  When you were children.

May I ask you what you did professionally before you retired?
