Hmm

Just to clarify:

By public I meant someone who announced that they were going to leave, then left. By unilateral I meant that they did it themselves without any pushing at all from management. By "successful quitting" I meant that they didn't come back or have any subsequent contact with chess.com.

chess_kebabs successfully quit twice.  Just up and left.  Cold turkey.  No looking back even.  Takes guts.

More seriously, Masterful_Forfeit, kokino and dsarkar seem to have managed to quit.  Something about having to work in the real world.  Can you imagine?

I gave up drinking, smoking, and chess last night....worse 15 minutes of my life.

Hmm, yes, it seems I put too much emphasis on the "unilateral" and not enough on the "quit"

Not enough emphasis on the publicly.  Rael, silentfilmstar13, likesforests, king_william and Ray_Brooks come to mind as silent defectors as well, although Rael came back as Rae1 so "successfully" could be argued there -- I have my suspicions about Ray_Brooks as well.

Cheater_1 almost pulled it off, but then returned.  Twice (the second time as the pitiful Teacher_1).

Sure, as soon as you see it you know it's not genuine.  If you really mean to quit, then the validation of this community as you to it isn't something you'd be seeking.

To early to tell with Eo____ -- he'll be back.

Dr_Doc_MD is another case.

Marvellosity, too, seems to have quietly disappeared, and richieandoprah.  Damned shame about those two.

Good riddance to Ray_Brooks.  He was a dope, anyway.

Did Nuclearturkey leave ?
