You ASKED for it....keep that in mind at all times

I IMPLORE all of you to take a look in the mirror. Look at yourself. Think. Analyze. Reflect.

Here is what I find interesting: Whenever I make a post such as, "Chess is NOT a sport" or "cheater_1's math and physics lesson", there are HUNDREDS of posts and TENS OF THOUSANDS of views...yes it's true, TENS OF THOUSANDS. Some think I am posting controversy just for the sake of controversy. AND THEY ARE RIGHT. Some of the best conversations/debates stem from my inflammatory posts. Whenever I post a legitimate post or a scholarly study of FACTS, most people are TURNED OFF. So, I post controversy. What do you expect? Your actions DEMAND that I post controversy. When I post the "trolling" post, WE ALL benefit.

You people--the MEMBERS of this site-- have created ME. I am YOU. No one cares to hear facts. No one here wants to talk chess. No one here likes scholarly posts. No on here cares to go toe to toe with me on the debate floor. No one here cares to sit across from me at the chess board. So.....the scholarly cheater_1 must leave. And not a bit too soon. Scholar cheater_1 was BOOORING.

It is time for me to come full circle. It is nearly ONE YEAR since I first came here. Oh no, there will be NO reinventing. There will be nothing new. I will be going back to the basics. Same old material that you all have come to know and love. I will not be rehashing the past, though. I will not be manufacturing some phoney persona. I will be calling it like I see it MORE SO than I have ever done. Perhaps getting a lifetime BAN by ERIK on my one year anniversary is what I really want.

People, I will test your patience. I will test your morals. I will test your very being. How much will you tolerate? Where will you all draw the line? I will push you all to the brink. Will you fall to the dark side? Will you break? I have a feeling the ultra conservative ADMIN of this site will save you all from yourselves. They will protect you. BIG ADMIN with its desire for BIG rules and BIG regulations will protect you from the evils of the www and mean, nasty trolls.

Into the fire I go. See you all in a few days.

what?

"No on here cares to go toe to toe with me on the debate floor"

A number of people have offered, and some I've seen have certainly argued more convincingly than you.

I think you may be over reacting just a little bit to ERIK, but otherwise, keep it up, you're certainly among the most entertaining posters.

Just remember, substance isn't all bad, sometimes having some behind your inflammatory might be nice. Sure debate and argument for their own sake are nice, but not the be all and end all of the internet. I know a lot of people have given up on it, but I still have hope.

p.s. When you say ultraconservative, do you mean a classical definition of conservatism, or neocon or paleocon etc...Because more often than not conservatives (By definition at least) would be against regulation, as opposed to econimc leftists (The term Liberal would be innaccurate, unless you're using the bastardized American version of the word.)

p.p.s. Sorry about the politicalesque comments, still in election mode.

p.p.p.s. Never mind, I'm not sorry, this is a Cheater_1 topic, anyone who shows remorse will be gunned down.

Honestly, I've stood toe-to-toe with you on several occasions and even got concessions from you that I make valid points that sometimes contradict your assertions.

Chess is an intellectual game; it's how it's always been perceived by society. There are lots of recreational players here, like yourself, but there are also lots of scholarly and intellectual folks.

I, for one, have already earned by BA graduating Summa Cumme Laude and am pursuing my Masters and eventually a doctoral program in a few years. There are many members of this site who are your equal in terms of rhetoric, debate, grammar, science, liberal arts, and modern academia.

Without running away and calling people names and spouting controversy, honestly tell the public what your credentials are? Did you graduate high school? Did you earn a BA? Do you have any graduate work that you can add to your resume? Have you won any special awards? Do tell.

You do have a unique world view, but does that make you more scholarly and objective? Don't rashly assume the two statements are related.

do u saw the cheater_1 ?

he plays with your mind :P

please send the rest of you with him.

if you plan on kicking your trolling into higher gear, please reconsider as i am at max cheater_1 capacity already.

yeah ... thats telling him eric

Cheater_1, if you are more interested in abstract ideas and arguments that do not really have "proof" yet, then I would be amazed if you weren't interested in String Theory :P

.

... last I checked cheater, I already challenged you to a correspondence match and you declined :).  Oh yes, the scholarly cheater that you talk about is a great story, but he never existed :).

Anyways, can you put your name in the title of your threads or something so I don't have to waste my time figuring out why you choose to capitalize certain words ;).

i think the only reason that erik keeps this guy around is because he wants to get more active posts in the forums

haha he practically does put his name in the thread titles.  I love playing 'spot the cheater_1 thread'.  I'm much better at it than 'spot the daily puzzle thread'. 

As my grandmother used to say, "I wish I could buy him for what he's worth and sell him for what he thinks he's worth."

Cheter_1, I like your style.

He's ALIVE!!!!!

I apologize for the bolts in your neck, I thought it would accessorize nicely, however, I believe I was wrong.  Next time I will go with grommets.

I just want everone to know that before technology became available to the society, it was first developed for military purposes. The o' and 1's streaming in digital lines that they created started for military technology. And thus will always be very much more advanced than what we are using.In short, before we even think that we know a lot about the in and outs of the internet  be it hacking, virus distributions and spams and before any civilian has ever used the satellite for their malicious behaviors, they have seen it already.

This site , i believe was created by people who loved the game of chess and wants the chess loving public to play and interact harmoniously with each other in a fair game.

Each one of us is distinct, we think differently behave diffirently. But creating a spoof on-line and creating chaos on-line will prove disastrous in the end.No matter how good we are, we will be traced...and the consequences will prove fatal. Each computer be it wireless or cabled has a distinct eletromagnetic signal that is a part of a system as each person has each own finger prints. Don't ever think that one can access the internet without getting traced even if one shifts from place to place using pirated operating softwares,fictitous e-mail addresses etc.The military has been there and probably has done that.

Let's all play the game we love in a site made for us by our brothers who love the game as much as we do.Let's all be "humans", let's all "grow -up" be the best of friends, brothers and sisters. But warriors on the chess board. GOD bless those who made this site.And for those destroying it, may they find happiness in doing it so that they can re-think of what they have contributed to it when they are old enough to know that conscience and straight forward thinking thus exists.Because when they try to tweak other peoples minds, it is nice to know that they tweak theirs first.

Pathos.

I looked in the mirror.  I really like what I see.

Argue with that butt head.

ERIK PLEASE DELETE HIS ACCOUNT! 

 Now that was one awesome movie!
