Reporting bad behaviour
Sort:
It would seem that the site is now turning a blind eye, to any reports by members regarding any form of abuse or harassment, or any sort of bad language. It’s now the task of the mods to sort it out . It’s absolutely pointless reporting any one for anything, the site just turn a deaf ear to everyone.

The site certainly doesn't turn a blind eye or leave the moderators to it. There are some things the mods don't even have access to, so it requires staff involvement.
So a member is allowed to call me a child predator, and saying “ he’s up there with Jeffrey Epstein “ and nothing is done about ! 🤷♂️…. This member is still allowed to continue with his activities on the forums. He should’ve been muted ! ……but oh no the site prefer to just ignore it completely ! ……..so much for the TOS rules of this site ! 😤

If you see a comment that is abusive, please send me a message or click the red report button. In most cases, we can edit out the comments but sometimes it may need to be escalated to staff. Community reports do make our job a lot easier though 
What is the point of sending you a message, the member I’m referring to needs to be muted, and this can only be done by staff members. Also it’s pointless reporting them , because it takes such a loooooong time before any action is taken , if at all ! 🤷♂️

If there is an abusive post on the forum, we need to be aware of it which is why it's useful for the community to send reports to moderators. I'm quite active here so I can escalate reports or edit out comments really quickly if I need to. Please don't hesitate to contact me. I'm sorry for your frustrations!
Wait mods can't mute ?
No ! …….only staff members can do this .

I gotta admit you have a good point, Woolly. I've seen you muted for minor infractions and others get away with saying the worst kinds of things. It doesn't seem very fair to me....
It... it must mean that chess.com is out to get ME!!!!!
ITS A CONSPIRACY I TELL YOU
I say, that's an absolute disgrace old boy. Time for me to take over and sort these cheeky bleeders out !
Time for a good sound thrashing of the boundah if you ask me.
At last the staff members have identified themselves ! ….HOORAY !
Referring to post 12

we're volunteers not staff 
Woolly was referring to staff members, not mods …..in reference to that panel of muppets at post 12
Precisely my thoughts old boy.
