Why do chess players hide behind avatars and false profiles?

Sorry you're not transmitting very well into this high speed broadband computer, you must have a slow connection -  can you speak up a bit?  I think you said something about me blackmailing a stripper, why would I need to, if they don't pay me I automatically hire a hitman and have them shot!!!

Ellie, the grapevine says that you are a black male stripper pretending to be a woman. Why is that?

The chess.com grapevine is well connected to the underground world of black male stripping, so it only makes sense his true identity was discovered so quickly.

Now we are getting somewhere. We need to get more confirmation because the two scenarios are both quite plausible. Scenario 1 : ellie has blackmailed a stripper who is now having his revenge by releasing some of his spicy inside information through the network here. Scenario 2 : ellie is effectively male and black and extremely muscular in all the right places, which gives him great street cred. Who has any additional info?

It's ok, my underground connections, mainly male gangsters which proliferate here in New Zealand, (as do hitmen if you have been reading the papers recently),.... are currently in the process of dragging his body away, so no probs my end,  all problems solved! ;)

I didn't know he was dead. I might need 2 cans. Innocent

Ellie seems to have the details. She organised it all. So the confusion started with somebody looking for black paint stripper. Ellie seems to have misunderstood and thought that the black male stripper that she was blackmailing spoke to somebody with close ties with some of the rough guys here. Starts to sound like jack the ripper moved down under..

Technically, you are resisting the resistance. So you are the resistance.  So everyone is futile. There is no meaning of life!

Blame it on the feminization of men, GMO foods, public school indoctrination, white guilt, and the fact that these trolls have never kissed or embraced a real life woman!

I'd say that is really you, mr. Quint. How are those legs?

I never check the profile until after the game.

Maybe I'm the only one, but I rarely if ever look at the profile of my chess.com opponents. I just don't see the point

I accept challenge, then check profile.
