Interesting, this has been brought up a few years ago.

Thanks I read the thread. It woulk be very risky to make suggestive comments to the adolescent girls who are ego tripping with their cameras and using chess . com as a publishing place.

The thread referred to seem to degenerate into such suggestive comments.

Or perhaps he/she thought you should get over it (i.e., disagreed with you) and thought "get over it" was a good way to put it. He could be offended, sure, but I don't think his day has to be ruined to have that opinion.

Adolescent girls join chess.com free of charge, play no chess, but post dozens of snaps of themselves in silly poses. In one day their pics have hundreds of views, I imagine men the culprits.

Some get a few pathetic comments that are very exagerated at times. These girls are abusing the photo feature on chess.com.

The rule should be you can post pics after completing a given number of games.

Interesting wording.  The complainer certainly has done his/her homework.  The complainer can state that these "adolescent girls" "post dozens of pictures", "in silly poses".  He/she knows this because.....why?, .....he/she has nothing better to do than investigate this horrible abuse of chess.com.....what? ....chess forums?   Then, just to make sure he/she's got his "facts" straight,  checks up on the "perps" to see how many "pathetic" comments dribble in...?   

These forums are a hoot.  Mindless blither.  

I am glad you enjoy mindless dribble in these forums.

What does it say when in a day there are hundreds of views and maybe one trivial comment?

Make them play chess first or move on to teenage social media site like facebook etc

What else will be changed by then?

Avatar of corrijean

I guess we'll still be able to post blogs with pictures. (One of my hobbies is photography.)

Do you really believe Erik is doing it because you complain about it?

Its more likely an efficiency thing!

I want a pleasant, smooth female voice saying to me: "Welcome back, TheBigDecline, I missed you soooo much while you were away!" every time I log onto Chess.com. Can you arrange that, erik?

Lol, this is funny!

Especially Landwehr's comments.....

Funny stuff, as if some photo album going away is because the moderators at chess.com are worried about adolescent girls "ego-feeding" on chess.com! Notice the :/.... If it was such a big issue, why not pick on Facebook?

I am sure there is some other reason besides concern about adolescent's ego size.....

who cares what people take pictures of.  get over it.  if you don't like the pictures then don't look at them.  easy.   

I disagree with this completely, but I am not offended either!  :-)

Problem is that you can't NOT see an image in a thread.  

Go on, try:

 

Did you NOT see the drinks?

Bet you did.  

Once you've seen it, you can't unsee it!

This reminds me of the one "Don't think of a white horse." Anyway, I seem to be getting thirsty for some reason ...

Am I the only one to find it odd that landwehr complains about photos of adolescent girls but not those of adolescent boys? My beef is with unattractive people posting their photos. ;-)
