rna, maybe u can take some notes from him ;-)

Here's a link to the Chess.com Troll University, for anyone who is inspired by Robert's story and wants to join!

Question for Robert: what are you referring to in this line?
"A fan of trolling engineered the firing of several of chess.com's best mods, but CrystalMoon is unfortunately too good at her job..."

This has inspired me. It doesn't matter what people say, (quoting Joan Jett) "An I don't give a da*n 'bout my bad reputation...you're living in the past it's a new generation" So get me into Troll University, LETS TAKE BACK CHESS.COM! The audience is listening...

I have to say, nd997's quiet-but-effective method of trolling is pretty clever too. Is there anybody who's been on the site for more than a year who hasn't received tofu yet?
