Because it isn't ragebaiting, it's a critique of how illogical the threads calling for the banning of low rated players are

L petition. Sorry but this feels like it’s infringing in freedom of speech. I don’t agree with those threads for several reasons but I don’t think locking them is the right or reasonable answer.

You do not have freedom of speech on a privately owned forum. That right applies to public property. i.e. unless you can convincingly argue C.C forums are some equivalent of a 'town square' you have no claim to speech protections. Considering they outright ban political and religious speech... this thread would only be the tip of the iceberg.

I'd like it if there were stronger protections of speech online, even on forums like this, but that isn't the law. But on that front I don't think the retarded speech is what I'd focus my efforts on protecting.

Not to interrupt the celebrations.

Looks like you lose.

This thread seems pretty hypocritical

It seems that way due to your overly abstract idea of how ethics work. It results in you being unable to tell the difference between obvious things, like a thread attacking the intelligence of / calling for bans of masses of players vs. one calling for the forum rules to be enforced.

In what way is it hypocritical

213 there’s nothing hypocritical about pointing out the absurdity of generalizing the attitude of every chess player under a given rating

I took a break, but I'm glad it's gone. This is still standing to this day.

You do have a point. I remember Very Very Stern, he just kept yapping and yapping and yapping...
