i am sorry

This thread has 210 posts. It reminds me of Chomper's ridiculous threads. ChessDotCom let that one run far too long as well. Maybe they think threads with high-number counts improves business but, in my eyes, it does the opposite. They speak of having a set of values but don't (always) live up to it.

Well. Now I'll stop or I'll get myself banned. But I'm saddened by the entire thing, seeing people I like at each others' throats over politics and racism ... two of the most sickening topics there is. And true ... of the 210, a lot of them were mine (but only in trying to stop it). If we don't stand up, who will? Obviously this website shows bias toward high-number threads.

Like Wolves you mean

I probably stop since I dont want myself banned

I honestly agree with you

Thanks I believe sports shouldn't mix with politics but when innocent people are dying we should take a stand.

It's the honest part that the bunny doubts

Never stopped anyone here before. TICCPROW

Idiocracy wasn't a a movie - it was prophecy.

Perhaps you meant government instead of country. Isn't the country its people, since nature only has mountains, rivers and oceans as borders?

I agree to taking a stand ... but against political parties and governments not against regular folks trying to play with others from around the world.

The thing I love most about forums is meeting people - wonderful and sweet and caring people and even using translator to chat with them - this all is what makes Chess.com great. All of us people who just love a game. It should be bringing us all closer. It saddens me, is all.

TICCPROW .. precisely Sawdof!! :-)

UPDATED after reviewing link! WOW!

BAM!!! Your statement smacked me HARD as fact!! I think Don't Look Up is as well.

Same lol these are my favourite kinds of forums

what country are we talking about?

Huh

I dont care about your political affiliation or what country your from as long as you respect me and we dont have problems I dont care

So thats why but I agree with you that it isnt necessarily their fault
