Unacceptable irresponsible and negligent to lock serious feedback topic without a relevant response

The worst part is that they stuck around for around two hours without being banned at all. It seems like Chess.com has a bunch of empty promises for dealing with these individuals, and that they'll be able to stick around freely.

It's not even that these individuals are particularly bright, just persistent. Mostly slipping through poor implementation of possibly great plans. Who really knows?

You don't have to be very bright to get a VPN and make many accounts here, that's for sure.

Someone who gets reported ten times should be automatically quarantined until a moderator gets a chance to review the quarantined content. This is just something I made up. Don't know if it would actually work.

Not so safe with the kids who like to gang report anybody who doesn't agree with them.

Avatar of BoardMonkey

I thought about that. They could have their quarantine powers taken away when they abuse them.

It's ridiculous that you can get auto-muted so easily, while other people post federally prohibited images. They need auto-image-detectection. Guess that's hard for a computer.

It's coming. AI will eventually be used instead of text filters, to read through posts *in context* and block bad content instead of single words, and to scan images *before* they get posted.

That's the good part. The bad part will be trying to stop that type of tech from turning into a giant thought-influencing mechanism by the people with the $$$.

Sadly, I think you will see this on Live in the next several years, but a good deal longer before they get around to the forums.

A thought-influencing mechanism by the people with the $$$??? What use could such a thing possibly have for such people as that?

There's a reason why no one has ever thought of such a thing before: it would be practically useless.

Please try to use your noggin. If filters can catch bad content in images, they will also be capable of being set up to catch any content coming in with any criteria, and to block and/or in AI's case modify it mid-stream.

In your case, I would swap out your avatar every post, remove the big eyes you try to use to make your content seem less toxic than it is, and add big cheeks with jowls.

You didn't answer my question what utility would that have for people with $$$. What do they care what people think?

Lol.

Ummm, 4 of the top 5 market cap companies in the world get their revenue directly by influencing and selling what you think. That's literally *the most* "utility" on the planet...to the tune of $11 trillion with-a-T.

You can't have seriously asked that question.

And to think, all they were waiting for to have influence over every body's thoughts was AI.

Sorry, you're a raccoon. Can't weasel your way out of things.

The site is already pretty behind when it comes to using even less recent technology. No ocr for images, no standardized filters across platforms, no change annotations on forum posts (which they actually used to have more than 10 years back), etc ...

So not very soon ...

Except for the support section. Whatever helps them do even less work in that department, I guess.

Why is chess.com allowing full page ads now? Ugh. AppleTV+ my...

It's a $100+ million dollar company now...time to flex your muscle with your advertising networks.
