Greta is a public figure so she's game for criticism on whatever she promotes. But she's not in the skin business or whatever one might call it. Just checked wiki and realized she's turned 19 - always thought of her as a mid teen.
Now I'm all for poking fun at anything and everything but I guess there are some lines not to cross at least on a chess site.
A lock just puts a topic in the must see section in the museum of chess.com.
I edited the offending title.
Why not mute the already closed account?
No question here. REMOVE IT! It has no place here. Lately I’ve seen other pictures that seem appalling and offensive to me as well. I understand “time/place/manner” and we’re all different but this a chess site. And No, I’m not a prude, moral agent, or holier than thou. I don’t think I’ll stomach much more before I move on from Chess.com.
No, I'm thinking more of the "family friendly" rule like Disney.
disney hasnt been "family friendly" for decades. They caved also to the PC crowd.
Only on the outside
I edited the offending title.
Why not mute the already closed account?
Better yet. Why not give an answer as to why it was left up.
Muted now. Guessing a ban requires staff permission unlike mutes which even the autobots can do.
I will say Thank You to the staff for taking the recent corrective action.

Mods are just members of the community so we don’t see all the content. After checking I found other offensive content so it was removed. Thanks for sharing the concerns and for the thread!
There is a thread in community about becoming a mod.

That'll be a 5 hour meeting on what to do and how not to offend the offender.
6 hours later still unbanned.
*Snip* Thereis a thread in community about becoming a mod.
Responsibility without authority nor tools is a tough gig
Here's another thread that has no business on Chess.com. The big surprise is its from 2016... Really?....teach a 3 yr old how to use a chain-saw? Another re-turning troll. https://www.chess.com/forum/view/general/should-i-teach-my-3-year-old-chess-or-how-to-use-a-chainsaw
That account @I_Shalt_HumiliateYou lasted a couple of months before self closing after getting humiliated
https://www.chess.com/forum/view/general/what-prison-is-this
But at least from what I can see he wasn't attacking anyone
How much more of a pattern does the site need to take action on @worstertatersneako?
No, this is not a game but it could well be. How do mods decide what to do?
In the case below the poster @HandSanitize was not even muted but the post was locked for posterity so everyone can see it, which I think is worse.

IMHO the poster should be banned. Their topics should show up on their page but not show the content. This makes it clear why someone was banned for abuse.
You are a prude and a stupid person to be honest. The fact words can get to you so much shows the weakness instilled in this generation. You are the one who should be banned

Why be honest now? But I'm glad you know me so well.
I'm also glad that my words got to you enough to bump this after 27 days. That's some long term trigger
Since this was bumped I’ll contribute
