That is a valid point. In this case, I believe, that formal identification has been retracted. Check her account, and now it will simply be closed.

"Oh, I guess calling a real life IM a cheat and a lier, instead of a C.c member, is OK then. LOL" what so funny about that ?

As much as I am against public accusations in the absence of, or even in advance of, an official declaration by chess.com, in this case that declaration was made and only the label removed upon threat of legal action. The account remains closed, and the reasons for it well known. I think that declaring this user a cheater is entirely fair game, however it should probably be done in the cheating discussion group, not here.
I agree with the Grobe. Instead of cheaters we should be talking about waffles.
Karl, stop hijacking the thread! This is about waffles. If you want to help me figure out which rum I was drinking earlier tonight that is also acceptable.

Even if they did, which I guess they don't say that now, would it be nice to say such a thing in public? I don't know, doesn't seem either the polite or smart thing to do to me.
See, this is what I like about you: The ability to rationalize and twist your reality until you are once again demonstrably infallible and all is right in your own personal universe.

OK, the only way I can even stand waffles is if I drown them in Maple syrup.
That's kind of the point of waffles

Of course it's nice! As nice as Dembo's behavior to play with Rybka on a site which forbids that, ignoring many warning messages she received from the staff.

So you mean it's irrational to be polite???? And you wonder why you are in my bad list?
I said that?

Ah yes, Karl's lists of the bad people.
Doesn't every well-adjusted adult maintain one?

That's understandable. BorgQueen's a real quiet fellow. Hardly ever drops in on the forums. 
Well, bondocel is new here....

I changed schools quite a few times when I was a young'un and I always loved it when the teacher would defend my actions to the principal with that line!
Even more impressive if you could pull it off by simply changing names instead of schools, no?
It was a joke.
If you have such a problem with people returning to the site under new usernames perhaps you should start a thread to complain about it.
When they've been formally identified as a cheat by chess.com, as she has, yes.
