Does Magnus Carlsen play regularly?

I saw that he had an account on here, does he play on this site regularly? Or is that below his ego?

You might also find that Bobby Fischer has a few accounts, as do (I suspect) Phildor and Lasker.

His rating was ridiculously high.... I doubt a fan could fake that.

Carlsen does indeed have an account but he mainly trolls the forums, doesnt play much....wait...maybe I am Carlsen...bow to me, underlings.

They must have a secret chess server somewhere ...

I've heard Carlsen played here, reached 4000 rating or something insane like that and stopped. 
I think Carlsen mostly plays IRL or studies. He may come to sites sometimes, but I dont think he spends time here, mostly ICC if one.

I searched "carlsen" in members and it resulted in a large number of

members with carlsen in the name.  

Amaizingly, many of these accounts are dormant/inactive and have been so

for years.

Maybe these inactive accounts should be deleted from the system after a year or two.

That would certainly free up a lot of server space ...

No, he gets constipated a lot.
