Because encouraging a comeback is a better than neutral position in this case. I am just highlighting the previous position and what she offered to chess.com back then which I thought was a good effort in an admin role . The future is the future. Encouraging a comeback is a better position then doing nothing.......... all things being equal.
Campaign To Bring Back The Zhang Master

Nothing gained nothing lossed........
So why encourage a comeback???
I think he meant to say something like: "nothing to lose by trying"
Instead it seems he mixed the phrases "nothing to lose" and "nothing risked, nothing gained."

Aside from the campaign I threw in the misspelled word and ambiguous sentence to see if anyone "at least" reads my forum topic...

I don't know what to do to help encourage her comeback, I don't have any means of communication with her :(

Maybe there is a player on chess.com that knows Lisa and can encourage her to come back. As a super administrator I can only guess that she may have been discouraged somehow as she was a tireless administrator and almost daily team player and organiser.......

Well.......That went well ......Big LOL...I think these things are meant to remain as they are ......for many reasons

maybe someone can solve the puzzle she left us on her site. There is a cryptic message ....I just can't solve it

I enjoy trying to solve puzzles..That no one saw what I see all this time causes ME to sh?t Bricks !! lol....Okay...what I see...is ..if you look carefully under the words NINJA ZHANG ...do you see HIM...and again...embedded in the right corner of rock face with his big teeth /eyes and SMILING with the end of ninja head band showing......lisa has left a fascinating puzzle.....the master zhang she is indeed........but what is her hidden meaning.she is definitely a she....lol...a cryptic message indeed that is unsolvable.I think never to be solved

go to the above site and look carefully
and notice the zhang master rotating 360 degrees to indicate the clues are there.............
I also see the skull of what looks like a dogs head with 2 horns embedded in the middle of the rock face...sunken eyes and square no nose like a demon..........
I was s'''ing bricks a long time ago lol
Its one of the best mysteries I have encountered.........

She had a good chess win/draw versus loss record on chess.com. this puzzle has me defeated. What is my interest you may ask....well I absolutely fluked a win against her...my one and only claim to fame on chess.com EVER... BIG LOL...

Why isn't she a premium member? I thought titled players were given free diamond membership here on chess.com.

she was given free diamond membership as a trial because of her win/loss game status I think.......but I think it expired as she was just a student she didnt continue with it.......... not sure on that

she was given free diamond membership as a trial because of her win/loss game status I think.......but I think it expired as she was just a student she didnt take it up
I that a random statement? It certainly doesn't answer my question. Also, huh? A free membership because of a "win/loss game status"? I... *Sigh*

So..suddenly........I think I may have now solved the puzzle.......She will NEVER come back.........Let's see if I am wrong.........

I have never seen a chess player vanish into thin air (A super admin I mean) after 400+ friends and online almost day and night every day for months and months to zero...zilch........whilst being a super admin and warm friends to many , many top chess players to no one .......I mean no one knowing on chess.com amongst the players her well being or what became of her...........it is a complete mystery
Anyone who remembers the Zhang Master ...Lisa Zhang Tok......2000+ ranked player, super administrator, 400+ friends and master wit on forums........encourage a comeback on her site. Nothing gained nothing lossed........
