Nobody cares. You've already made your point here. Quit spamming the site feedback forum with your same nonsense merely worded differently; and focused on slightly different aspects of it.

Heh. "Get back on topic"....

Heh. Crying because my cousin got blocked... (How would you even know that when I didn't?)

he does make good points and points out other issues on there. I still am iffy, but his points are worth reading.

The fact that you don't even get the reason to my addressing you as he or she (it's out of integrity to acknowledge the equal standing of men and women on this site, when I'm not sure of people's gender) shows your level of well-roundedness in society.

Very good. And, the points in his newest thread may possibly be just a little more respectable than here.

We already know what his points are, regardless of how much better he words them. The only reason he posted a new thread was because of his being told off here. I highly doubt he passionately cares about assigning all these alleged "fairer" roles to <500 players; as he's likely still of the mindset that low rated players don't belong on the site; which we have counter-responded him profusely as to why so many of us think he's wrong.

I cannot put my interest in any of your proposals.The way it was originally expressed in an large international community shows me quite a bit. My mission here is to express the opposite.Strongly contrary.Is good to have the right to express my opinion respectously without censorship.

it makes it easier for me to see other people points, which (mostly) have logic and thought

I don’t agree to much with op especially because s/he is saying that becoming above 500 is easy for everyone and anyone is below 500 they are brain dead. I do not find it to be that easy as I have trouble focusing on more than one thing so I often make blunders or other mistakes. It may be easy for some people but for other people it may be difficult. Just because a person is under 500 doesn’t mean that they are brain dead. Everyone has their own skills. I am very bad at chess but am above the average reading level for someone my age. Just because you are bad at chess doesn’t make you brain dead.

Is Ok, the-wild-child, this remind me an intellectual exercise to understand to others: Is to put yourself in "the other person's shoes." ( I personally have exceptions to the rule. )My tesis is that people proposals can be a expresion of their personal story.A person clashing with a closed door can have the impulsive temptation of close doors to others.The "alchemy"consist in open doors to others to change the perspective,and generate the Opening phenomena as domino effect and posteriorly other doors can be opened on your favour.Hardly you can wait hopefully for you, what you denegate to others

I am good at that because I have been through a lot. my experience with that stuff doesn't apply here, but its given me a good skill.

I've been stuck sub 300 for awhile on blitz but I'll also freely admit my difficulty is largely due to me not going out of my way to improve my opening/early game knowledge etc. Since I am aware of that limitation I'm unlikely to try and speak as an authority on major questions but that shouldn't prevent me from asking clarifying questions or engaging in a more learner rather than educator role on the forum. If you're going to take someone seriously for feedback on here it is up to you to see if their rating feels credible not the site.

Also, explain to me how i'm stereotyping by saying that they treat this like it's OTF? What you say is contradictory if that's true. You say i'm stereotyping low rated players, but you tell me that masters are shifting subject as well.

Do you even know if you're a-foot or on horseback?

I'll bet you don't even know what that means.

I don't want to block anyone It's something prejudiced people do

he said to ban under 1000s now

next he will say 1500 lol

ROFL. That's horribly ignorant. % of players "new" to the game are going to be playing at 500-700 after a couple games. Heck, I'm new to chess.com but I think you're rated at 800 when you activate your account. Banning anybody under 1000 would eliminate any new players.

Exactly dude

First my guy brings it back up but now he said he wants under 1000
HangingPiecesChomper

what's so bad about sectorizing people. are you saying we should get rid of titles because low rated players cannot get them?

wizdum23

Keep it going yall, motivating me to grind to 1000 on full tilt....
-__-; someone please invite me to a club forum or something, if they wouldn't be so inconvenienced-- no one contributes jack in terms of quality posts relevant to chess, that others can learn from[on the main page forums*]-- past several days the number one topic keeps popping up and it's this goofy tail-chasing nonsense trying to rile up heated debate between the different "ranks" of players. 
LOL. Takin cues from social media is NOT a good look for this place. MAD goofy!!!!
