The_Gavinator account got closed

I think he might be back as Gavinator.

The_Gavinator's reincarnation!

This is a day of Independence, for all the Munchkins and their descendants!

  First whatupdog and Emma get banned for commenting on the Parham, and now the last main backer of the Parham disappears.

Not only did Gavin's account get blocked, but every single one of his forum posts has been deleted.  I think this is pretty serious stuff.

They finally got sick of that monstrous heap of troll crap. So they flushed it all.

Whoa! Colors!

Hey Shadow, were you gonna fly to Hong Kong?  Alex and I had our differences about the Parham thing, but I also had pretty positive interaction with him in other areas.  He played for one of my teams on here (Team La Tchadienne), of La Republique du Tchad. 

I simply don't believe he was cheating or getting assitance.  A few months ago I know that the administration sent him a e-mail saying they had flagged him for suspected cheating and were going to investigate him.  He was pretty freaked out about that.  Also, why would he be cheating when his rating was like 1600-1800? 

Another thing I remember is that on the Chad team's homepage, Alex posted a note a few days ago saying how he was freaked out about posting anything on this site anymore. (http://www.chess.com/groups/home/team-la-tchadienne)

So Alex, if you are reading this, I think its unfair!!

Well I'm sure you can still meet him.  If you do tell him that I said hang in there!

Wait -- if your chess.com account is closed you don't die in real life?

That sounds like a bad asian horror movie..

WDF? alex got banned??? There must be some kind of misunderstanding!!!!
