In boxing, requesting a rematch is considered valiant; no one should frown upon it in Chess.

Btickler, You talk about immaturity and hypocrisy and then you say things like “tiny Legolas.” How mature of you. Please regale us with more of your highly mature comments.

And what do you mean by ‘sock-puppetry echo chamber’?

Your avatar is an objectively tiny Legolas head.  Sorry.  You picked it.  The reason I mentioned it is because people that think of themselves as/aspire to be Legolas  (the overpowered movie version, anyway) tend to be the same type of people that think they are entitled to rematches wink.png.

I'm sure you can figure out the echo reference if you try real hard.  If not, I'm sure ThirdMouse can help you.  She(*) posted the definition of what an echo is, after all.

Thank you, the third mouse.

Btickler, The “literally little picture”, made me laugh, thanks. I mean you can’t really do it bigger with the thumbnails on here, and it’s just the face, but good one. As for “entitled to a rematch,” I said I wasn’t in the initial post and please refer to number 34 (I’m gonna start putting that as a footnote to all my messages).

Finally, ‘sock puppetry’ Is clearly a suggestion that I am somehow being deceptive. This is my only account on here, just to be clear. I have no interest in trying to prop myself up with fake accounts; it’s sad that some people waste their lives doing that.

But it’s also very insulting!

Yeah, if you try to climb an elephant, there's no rematch for that.

Zardorian
What? What abuse is being alleged?

Moderator David, I’d like to know why she was removed.
Zardorian
Anyone have the guts to come forward and admit that you reported her? Or did you just feel like removing her on your own accord, David?
Zardorian

Didn’t think so. So we’ve come full circle 😆 (Just ignore number 34–I retract all that).

So btickler gets to make arbitrary, false accusations about someone (I bet you thought you were clever putting a star next to ‘her’—you’re clever*, btickler. You probably also think your handle is funny and clever 🤦🏼‍♂️). In the meantime, a good person gets removed for baseless reasons. Here’s the irony, btickler’s the one with multiple accounts!

You talk about the military, btickler? Really? Seriously? You?

Well anyway, congrats, I was looking forward to a lifetime on this site; funding it, supporting it, spreading the word, and donating memberships to others, but I’m thoroughly disgusted by this clear abuse of power and revolting miscarriage of justice.

I will reiterate that the new analyzing format is elegant, beautiful and brilliant. Whoever conceived that in the company needs a raise and should be promoted. I will really miss that.

Go ahead and remove me, too, David. I did not enjoy being singled out or see a friend removed from no good reason. I sure hope you remove btickler for making false accusations, having multiple accounts and being a damn cheater. Either way, I’ll be removing myself. Hope this site prorates 😬 😆).

See y’all later, Knuckleheads!

(OK, come out of your holes, trolls and cowards, you get the last word—if you have the courage 🤣🤣🤣)

Ummm...that was just bizarre and random...did my asterisk somehow shut ThirdMouse's account down?  I would suspect someone did an IP check and discovered ThirdMouse was somebody's sockpuppet and closed it down.  Whether it was yours, I don't really know, nor do I know if a mod took action for this particular thread or for something else...but it's not like an account that opened 4 days ago that is posting agreements with everything you post within 2-3 minutes of you posting is really very well disguised, so I am not sure why you think I "cheated" somehow.  I'm just observant.  I'm not the only one, though.

As for making accusations, they seem to be coming from you...and there's no reason to disparage my or anyone else's military service.  If you think I am posting from multiple accounts, I invite you to go ahead and tell everyone which account that would be. 

Hopefully, you'll reconsider whether getting this upset over a 4 day old account who you theoretically just met and don't really know well is worth giving up your paid-for membership.  This explosion was a tad too Shakespearean:  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_lady_doth_protest_too_much,_methinks

That took a whole 10 hours to escalate.   We need to do better. The lock is coming.

Is creating a new account to continue a forum fight like a rematch?

It's just an ongoing thing.  I was talking to @David about it earlier actually.  I joked that they should hire me,  and i'd teach them how to get rid of return users like me and he lost it,  haha.  

Ahhh...so that's why Chesstenor2018 seemed so adamant that @David was involved...

I doubt @David "lost it", though.  I have seen various trolls make this claim many times over the years, and then when you see the actual PM messages, the troll is full of it wink.png.  Enjoy your brief stay.

Maybe he thinks of you as a user instead of as an account.

I don't really think about it that way.  As far as i'm concerned I am not an account so much as a user.

And just in time.  Until the 5th Mouse.

Yeah, well, you also can't wear a cape during a boxing match, as you can at your local chess club.

That was return abuser YGNR: the only chat I've had with him was one where he pretended to need help, and when I figured out who he was, he lied about it. Unfortunately that means we can't help him with this problem he's got where he sort of wants to participate but not obey the Terms of Service or even own his previous wrong doings. We'll just keep banning his accounts as he creates them - given that there's a 4 hour mute period for any new accounts, he's investing a lot of time & effort into it., more so than the moderator team.

@Chesstenor2018 Please don't make cheating accusations in the public forums: I've removed them from one of your previous posts. if they've not been actioned, it's because the Chess.com Fair Pla team are either still investigating or there's not enough evidence. You could also be mistaken: please join the Cheating Discussion club at https://www.chess.com/club/cheating-forum to learn how to recognise actual engine use.

Thanks,

David, moderator

A lot of mice here lol.

It seems strange to expect a rematch from a complete stranger, doesn't it?
