It's really sad how the lengths people go to to defend bullying. You are. You're saying that ELO shaming is not bullying. But that's beside the point. Clearly I don't have this all-mighty "common sense", so please explain to me why ELO shaming isn't bullying, and, if it isn't, then what is it?
When did the bunny say that?
Is it just common sense or also reading comprehension that's lacking?
I don't think most high rated players even elo shame
Maybe they lightly tease but that's different the only time shaming rly gets bad is when low rated players go "I suck cause of cheating "
Other then trolls like hangrypeicechomper
Most try to give advice if they feel like it

If you read the opening posts again, yes, this topic is exactly about the trolls like Chompy and his buddy.
Of course, it's obnoxious that the OP just happily extrapolates and blames a "lot of players" for the work of a couple of trolls.

You said that,"Common sense is required to tell the difference."

No offense but your rating is really high, so there's no way you could of encountered ELO shaming yourself
OooOOOoo ELO shaming. Is that even a thing? I guess I'm here to ELO shame all of you'll.
People can be overly sensitive AND people can bully; both are true. Point is ... because of low-rated players, chess.com is in business and EVERYONE starts out low at first. I find this thread noxious and it's why I do not belong Facebook or Twitter etc. I didn't expect to find same thing here. It's sad, really. Maybe it's too much lead in the pipes.
Trolls are everywhere, try to change your attitude to them and keep living
There were some people that made an argument to ban under 500 elo's, but they got banned and/or muted.
So there may be some hope that the admins will come to their senses & make this a less tolerable policy.
Elo elo elo
wotz goin on ere then ?
guys, if anyone called @Hangingpieceschomper joins, IGNORE HIM. He is a troll & will attempt to subvert your expectations to ragebait you. The only way to defeat him is not fighting.
Just saying, since if anything is about ELO shaming, he will run here like an old man on a scooter.
best way to beat him is with sacrifices that force mate.
i agree with the topic. Elo shaming must be stopped. have we got a plan ?
> have we got a plan?
No
at least we know we need a plan
Is common sense needed to tell that bullying people is not ok?
You must be bullied by teachers and parents or anyone else that corrects you. Common sense is required to be able to tell the difference
