So one of the last of our guardians against spam has closed his account without much fan fare.  Where are we headed now? 

So we don't have counting threads anymore but we have guess the age, phone battery level, height, other stats of the person above/below etc topic.  Which are pretty much the same. 

Then we have the don't let this topic die, make this the largest topic, otf is dying, otf is dead, otf is on life support, ama 6782, etc topics.

At this point the Dubai girls spam is actually a refreshing change.

People like you are the reason why society is failing. It's a loss to the community when we lose someone like James... but if you were to close your account today it would only be an improvement.

Because you can't tell the difference between your skibidi toilet garbage and people posting about a moderator that has made positive contributions to the forums.

For those who don't know he makes very good music. I can't remember what his youtube channel is called though because I think it's on there.

Scrolling thru this thread I realized chess.com should create a trophy of a "tissue box" for all the tears.

There were those who didn't appreciate him - especially spammers

And normally the same people have the bunny blocked

One of the piano man's peers didn't seem to think so.
