When Miscael-G was banned (he had been banned previously under a different name for cheating) we asked for his posts to be re-instated and Chess.Com. He had posted lots of useful stuff in the KIA group - its still there now.
Would it be worth asking about bladezii ?

@Steve, It would definitely be great if we could get his posts back, his annotated games were extremely instructive.

I'm sad to hear about Bladezii, his analysis was really helpful. I hope he learned his lesson and will fly straight from now on.

Did members start a petition or did someone contact support to recover michaels posts?

@Nate, I think they just contacted Chess.Com and explained that Mischael-G's posts wre really good and can we re-instate them? And they did, quite quickly.
However, you do better to ask the member who who made the request for more information and some guidance. That member was either wormrose, chessbud or hectorperez.
BTW, Michael-G wasn't banned for cheating; he was banned because it was discovered that he was the same person as memeber xxx???xxx who WAS banned for cheating a while back (Balachander knows the details - and much more about him!) I think Michael-G did some coaching on here and 'kept his students' in various groups. I suspect 'The Learning Group' (and its many offshoots) is amongst them.

Great! For those interested in some of his content: http://www.chess.com/members/view_content/Bladezii
As some of you know, chess.com member "Bladezii" was banned for cheating. He had many instructive annotated games which were deleted along with his account. As his comments were helpful and worth reading, I am reposting my game against here.
Enjoy!
