I haven't seen that either. Maybe you are confusing his April Fools blog when he said he would quit chess with him telling you to quit chess?

Yeah I would never seriously tell someone to quit. If I did then it would have been a joke

I would tell someone to take a break if they really needed it, but that's it.

That was a joke. This was a mainly humorous comment section at the time, so Lightning probably thought you were joking. If you look at @assassin3752's comment, he says that the blog has over 3k views. It doesn't yet. Clearly Lightning was just going with the flow of the comments. But hey, it's an April Fools post. It's to be expected.

And before your comment, @Gump_forest said it's a good day to quit chess, which was clearly a joke, so you posting that you might quit chess just after that clearly seems like a transition from that joke.

Well, here's a solution. Don't post a comment that serious in the comment section of an April Fools thread where everyone is making jokes! Make a thread asking for advice or message some friends about it and ask them!

There is also the context that I never joke in that manner

There is no way. All the evidence pointed to that being a joke. He just posted that in the wrong place and got offended when you gave him an obviously joking suggestion.

I not only find it hilarious, but also sad that one of our fellow human beings is getting pissed that I post a April fools blog and attacks me and shame me for posting false news. Not only have they said that I do not deserve top blogger for posting fake news, but they clearly are under assumptions rather than facts. If you would've known, the head of chess.com content specifically gave @Lightning and I permission to post a April Fool's blog... pftt, some people.
And what assumptions exactly am I under?
You think that I should not be top blogger since you were under the assumption that I was not given permission to post an April Fool's blog.
