I totally agree with you RonaldJosephCote! Hoping Eric does what is truly best for Chess.com and does whatever is needed to make this #1 site even better than it is! After all, Better is what we all strive for!

I would not be that helpful in this regard :), I only dealt with these kinds of issues from the director level...so while I can suggest ways to build hardware/software infrastructure and set up customer service policies and procedures, and I can even point out specific courses of action at a departmental level, I am not an in-the-trenches sysadmin/networking guy.
I can tell you the best way to migrate/merge 28 billing systems into one ;)...but I am less useful for tracking individual spammers/abusers.
Agreed; that's what happened here. Erik laid down standard common sense rules 6 yrs ago. The poor mods got burnt out, as the membership numbers grew. I think he just wants a new/old set of rules, to try and hold them back for another 6 yrs. But people are getting nastyer EVERYWHERE. Hoolywood, Congress, etc. They push the envelope, rationalize the behavior, and demand an apology from the person they offended.

Lol, did you work for one or more of those ISPs? :)
Maybe Erik can keep you on retainer for suggestions. Even if he just plugs you in every 6 months.

No, no, no - I'm still in school. I just think it's cool that you were part of that!
Another 40 posts and well be at a 1000 RJC
Maybe we should leave it for Itude?? Erik doesn't post that often, but its 200 post a day, for 5 days.
