IQ has nothing to do with how good you are at chess, except maybe an extremely low IQ. 

I don't believe btickler raised the spectre of IQ with any thought towards relating it to chess ability. I think it's just an obsession of his.

Nope wink.png.  Again, wasn't me.  Who's obsessed here?

Try again.  I think you read the other poster and just assumed it was me, but I am far from the only person that knows of your IQ claims.

Oh, for Heavens Sake, please try to cultivate some kind of sense of proportion and stop being quite so obsessive. Please do attempt to grow up, eventually.

Don't think people don't notice when you just remove the parts of posts you can't dispute wink.png.  You made a mistake.  Two, if you count responding to a post from January again as if it were brand new.  Move on.

I think perhaps you should move on and also stop using the creepy wink. I looked on another thread and guess what ... I found this, newly laid by you:

"Fair"

But no, we're not all right in some way, unless you are living in some Disney cartoon.>>>

Face it .... you're a troll. You're dishonest, you're nasty, you have no intention of being pleasant to those who don't respect you (probably most of us) and you enjoy trying to hurt others. The fact is, I noticed your unpleasant and dishonest post and responded to it. Then I realised it was an old post. And then I thought that if you don't like people responding to your nasty posts, then you shouldn't make them. And you should also delete them. So I let my answer stand, because if I can read your nasty, dishonest and unpleasant posts then so can others.

Maybe you should read my nice posts, then.  My posting tends to mirror the character of the person I am interacting with.

Haha but yes. He's abusive to very many people, almost all the time. When you have a troll, there's no way to deal with it, if the methodology used is just within the confines of the "rules" and the rules are liable to be turned on the innocent victims for complaining too loudly about his bullying.

No, it mirrors your often extremely negative and judgemental reaction to something they may have said at some stage. And you consider yourself some kind of caped crusader who puts trolls in their place. But it's you who is the troll.

No, chess.com would consider his comments abusive and at  the very least they will mute him.

I've reported it in the past. So have many others. Nothing ever happens.

With hard work and focus, I believe Einstein could have been great at chess.

Avatar of pam234

Worth another try. Your decision.

Avatar of Optimissed

DefenderPug2 wanted to bury the hatchet. I also tried in the past. I asked you if we could just stop it and be friends and you told me that basically you dislike people and you have no intention of being pleasant to people. So I gave up. Then I tried a second time and the peace held for two weeks. Then you got bored and started again. And now you're being really unpleasant to Mr DefenderPug simply for wanting to bury the hatchet. Why? How insecure have you got to be, to do what you do?

Possibly decent but great? That takes a special kind of fighting spirit. And although Einstein was friends with Lasker, he did make it clear that he didn't really respect chess players. Perhaps it was a kind of one-upmanship. Maybe they played a few games and Einstein took care to put him in his place, after he lost?

Thanks Pam. I'll probably dream of First World War poets. You can always fill in the time by replying to my message and telling me what coins you like to collect, and I'll do the same. And don't forget your husband's stamps! OOps it's 4:45 am here. And I worked hard today .....

Will do!

Thanks, I'll look forward to reading what you have to say.
