note: site improved by Cheater_1 comments. i have to admit i like the edgier version of Cheater_1. i am not sure how to handle gooey humble Cheater_1. by the way was it ever proven that Erik and Cheater_1 were not one and the same? just asking...
I RECANT!!!!

You post docusoap trash like this, relating to your personal vendettas with this site's admins? And complain about other topics about "favourite pieces"?
Ok, you got lotsa hits on your posts, but that doesn't prove they're not mostly bullshit, it just proves that the common chess.com users, including me, tend to behave much like blowflies....
I think it is more the freakshow side of things, a pile of steaming blowfly attracting dung......that can talk --> Cheater1!

If I start a petition in my (unwritten-in) blog to ban cheater_1, would anyone sign it? Or is he just too entertaining?

I wouldn't. His posts are too much fun. As much as I post against him, I'm glad he's part of this site.

...by the way was it ever proven that Erik and Cheater_1 were not one and the same?
I've wondered that myself. The only problem would be you're not allowed to create multiple files on chess.com, so erik would have to delete his own account!

FINALLY. FINALLY I am getting some respect and credibility. I had a legitimate gripe about "hot buzzwords" in our posts getting the blue underlined link to ads. And it appears that the issue has been addressed and resolved. I'd like to think that I had at least 50% say in them getting removed.
I have also learned to bite my tongue from time to time, reread my posts and adjust them accordingly, and water down some of my opinions. I hate this censorship thing, but if I want to stay here, I have to watch my step.
Once again, I'm not here to amuse you all and provide relief from your doldrum humdrum existence, I'm here to CALL IT LIKE I SEE IT.

From what I can tell, most consider you a joke and comedic relief.
I'm just calling it how I see it!
Cheater gets some folk riled up! Love it!
