as for chair.  I have a vague feeling eventually, either he or his thread is gonna get locked.

that would be a shame too.  I loved the potato jokes!  but alas i guess all good things must come to an end....

I think FB will be back, he's far too fond of this site to stay away after his ban is lifted.

If this thread or myself are locked, so be it.  I've made my point here and those who come to view this thread can draw their own conclusions.  

In the meantime, we could always mash the leftover potatoes...

What! Potatoes have ears you know. Yell

I mean eyes. Embarassed

Oh, we shouldn't eat him, but they do look good. I'm sure he wouldn't mind. No point letting them go to waste. Smile

Sorry Frenchie if you're watching. We'll save you some, or one. Wink

Frenchbasher is a legend now he's been banned and resurrected. He can join the ranks of pdela, RJC, kaynight and myself. Macky only got muted so I'm not sure if that counts. Better luck next time macky. Wink

Not sure I want chocolate on my chips. Is that a Scottish thing?

Avatar of TheChairmaker

Yes, coz chips on their own are not quite unhealthy enough.  Just think of it as a deep-fried Mars Bar with the batter on the inside.

Le pepette pour Toujours!  C'est merveilleux!!

purpose is "to open people eyes". hmph.  I don't know about you Mr chair. Anyways, I never believe that a sweet looking avatar is actually a pretty lady. (well unless said avatar is a pretty looking potatoe!)- Instead I suggest an attitude of cynacisma and skepticism.

its genuinely a great thing in the chess.com forums....

and... if you have problem with a serious, well liked and rarely heard lady,  what do you make of the "Absolute Best"/"ALIVE" person that sometimes Haunts these forums.

That guy/girl/it takes "girl trolling" to a new level.

per http://french.about.com/od/culture/a/frenchnames.htm

the suffice "-ette" implies that the name is feminine.

but the Great frenchbasher, 64, student of many lands and languages seems very much like he is man. 

this is almost Exactly the spirit of skepticism I was saying.  when presented with a nutty guy who seems like a bizarre (I mean that in the best of way FB) French guy, but goes by a womens name.

he surely is a guy.  even IF he presents a picture that is different than harry, the h pawn.

I've never known Frenchbasher to use a profile photo, though he is always welcome to use one of my potato faces if he so wishes. I said from the start that he was clever, well educated, and he is. This site is for playing games. The forums are also a kind of game, played to the tune of words, pictures, whatever, some of which we understand and some that go over our heads. It's all just a bit of fun, sometimes coupled with a dose of aggression to get the adrenalin going. At the end of the day we log off and rejoin the real world with our chosen vegetables. lol Smile

Let’s compare two scenarios:

(1)   One person uses some photos which are not her owns. Maybe to conceal her identity, maybe to see which kind of response a person with a different look will get. Maybe for some other reason.

(2)    Another person starts a blog full of innuendo, accusations and insults. The whole blog is targeting another person.  The member targeted is identified with chess.com username and one of her personal messages to a 3rd party is published without permission. Other members respond to the blogs and add to the insults. The innuendo and insults includes:

"Con-artist", "predator", "sock puppet", "deliberately deceive those around them" , "real bully" , "fooled a lot of vulnerable people", "build a false persona", "capable of cheating in their games" ,"fakes and the cheats" , "sleaze" and "creep"   

Now, which of the two people acted most worst? Try to think about it a bit? Why do some here have such a desire to shame and attack others and never introspect? Let he who has never sinned throw the first stone.

Here are some news for you. Pretty much everyone lies or re-invent themselves online at least to some extend. Key examples which are commenly mis-represented includes: “personal assets, relationship goals, personal interests, personal attributes, past relationships, weight, and age”

Start with that assumption and you will not so easily be “shocked” when you learn that the real person behind the screen is slightly different. 

If you want to meet a real person, ask for Facebook, work email and phone number… then meet in real life.

That was way back. It's a bit tricky when you first join to know how it all works.

When I opened my account I used my mobile phone and made a typo error with my username. I could only change it once to correct it. If I want to change it now I have to close it and open another.

True, but we have given Mr Chair a hard time, too.

its common online to have someone criticize you.  it's happened to me, it's happened to you (well if it hasn't it will very soon).

so far, To me. it seems like this LONG thread has not been a personal harassment of the individual you are talking about.  Instead, much of it has been jokes. 

and I think we have been good about talking more about the title and then the people involved.

OTOH if you feel you have sufficient grounds to silence Mr chair, or this thread- why haven't you?  thats something that has confused me since you said your first post.
