Yeah, and it's definitely mature to pretend to be a cat.
Farewell Everyone

Like, "Meow, mum. Meow, meow! Meow meow meow meow!"?

can we all calm down a bit? everybody is getting worked up and we can just settle it nicely. I agree that some people are sad that hes leaving, but its a chess site, not facebook. if you want to stay in touch you should have asked for his email or something. im fine if people are sad, but some people are over the top that doesn't need to be shared.

also, @woollensock , youre not being sensitive. i understant your viewpoint, and i would be inclined to agree with you, but we can get ideas across without being insensitive.

so do you want people to be sensitive or calm or what ? could you make your mind up please ?
I think that the people that are really worked up about it need to calm down, but that's no reason to be insensitive to them. Also, comment 165? Really? Trying to stir up a thread for laughs isn't great, especially since some people are actually sad over it.

if someone says something neutral without meaning any harm, and it unexpectedly hurts someone, then it wouldn't be their fault for hurting someone, but they might want to apologize.

I would understand your view, and I understand what you meant by that, but even if you weren't trying to be insensitive, you weren't trying not to be insensitive. They are different things, one is passive: "I won't try to be insensitive, but i might accidentally end up being insensitive," and one is active: "I'm going to try to not be insensitive."

apologise for saying something neutral and someone couldn’t use his brain properly ? we have to apologise for someone else’s stupidity ? i see where you are coming from, man.
don't you ever apologize to someone for something that wasn't your fault? if you step on someone accidentally, or ruin one of their possesions on accident? like stepping on a lego sculpture. you still apologise even if it was an accident

this guy is just stirring up muck, woolensock, i think he is best ignored at this stage.
yeah you're probably right
yall being too savage calm down B)
Yah xDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
