Martin is an all round good guy afaik.
why do so many want to be mod or staff?

Sure thing
Whatever you think

I try to be a "do gooder". Are you saying that's wrong? You may have ruined my whole weekend; I'm sensitive, you know...

One thing I could't help but to consider is that if you become a mod, you most likely will have somewhat less freedom to say what you think and you become a target for harassment, as some will try your patience and maybe will even cheat you, simply because you are a mod...

Actually I think Batgirl still says what's on her mind. And elsewhere I've already said that Martin has always been helpful, mod or not. These people have remained true to themselves imho. Can't really speak for the others since I've not really observed what they were before :-)

No baddogno, you're a good dog :-)

As you know security is tight at Chess.com but the last time I visited I was able to sneak a picture of the 2 most recent hires. I didn't catch their names but, one is in charge of keeping the bathrooms clean, and the other is in charge of messages.
Nice, ron :-) hope those aren't real assignments and nobody is offended. You never know ... ;-)

I would karate 🥋 that snowman ☃️, and let Tabitha have a go at scratching the eyes 👀 off. ..........

the thread died during the weekend. so did the fresh 'statute' account.

It is not allowed for anyone to stalk anyone. If it happens, it should be reported.
That said, with the a very large number of anonymous members, knowing for a fact who someone really is not possible; without verifying eveyone which is not something that is effective from a cost/employment standpoint that is.
