Maurice Ashley, victim of rasicm?

Maurice Ashleys 'smooth game' phrase rubbed Magnus the wrong way, otherwise it was a normal converstion between two players who respect each other.It was like a living room chat between two close buddies and trolls cross match their skin colour and cry out the big word 'Racism'.

It would have been a sight if there was a fight between the two,just saying.Imagine Magnus punching Ashleys bald head hard lol.

Ciarli should be muted to stop his annoying post.

I don't think Ashley was trying to provoke. He is literally paid to play a character. He is paid to entertain. He is going to have to "spice" things up by making comments like that.

i like how if ever you accomplish a GM rating its your right to be a Grand Master title for life as life throws not only opportunities your way , if say you suffer alzheimers and your chess becomes tiddlywinks it cannot diminish what you have acheived

sadly this thread was not even about racism, opee askes if a bloke called rasicm victimised ashley wotsisface.

Finally, chess interviews begin to sound like interviews with football players. Quite an achievement.

I remember watching the Anand - Carlsen WC post game conference q's. Looked like a wake or funeral. Such a dim mood in the whole room.

long time no see comrade.

long life staliniosky.

Honestly this troll thread was good, or maybe my standards just fell to the ground...

Advertising your personal thread here is against ToA. Reported Asshole

superman0101 runs around all the threads telling people what they can't do, reporting them... all the while the admitted offender (in public) of  possessing multiple accounts thinks he's god's gift to the forums and breaks every rule.

 i heard that at chess tournaments, maurice ashley always has to move second because he is black.

It is a well known fact by everyone (except you) that advertising your personal threads in other members threads is against the terms, in more ways than one. It breaks several of the terms.

You can't seriously believe members can go to any thread and post a link to their own personal threads. It is off topic, spamming , unsolicited advertising, rude to list a few.

"Posting chess.com thread links {from} other chess.com links is ok" ???

What in heaven is that supposed to mean? Posting a link from another link ??? And you ask if I can read ! You're one confused "dude". LOL Why you flying about with an Edsel over your head ? If you drop that thing, you might be in real trouble.  Your shenanigans here never amount to anything with the mods. 

No. No. No. The truth is quite different. You asked if it was OK to create a 2nd account to practice openings. A mod sent you a private message (that you should not have posted and made public) that technically the answer is No, but since you're a paying member they usually look the other way. Has it occurred to you that particular mod might be wrong in his statement?

Mods come and go. They are volunteers. They have no training, there exists few guidelines. Many members know the ToA's better than them. Before creating a 2nd account, you should have contacted Staff. Someone with real authority to get the real story about members having two active accounts. A volunteer mod sending you a PM certainly does not qualify as "Proof" it's ok to have two accounts, especially when he says "since you are a paying member". Red flag written all over it.

If any staff has read superman's responses, they should set the record strait. Being a paid member does NOT include a "privilege", as he claims. of being allowed to have a 2nd open account.

2nd. Posting a link to his personal threads is against the ToA. Has little to with "making money out of it" or his arbitrary reasons. Allowing his repeated violations, that he openly admits to, is a major reason so many members have little confidence in the consistency of moderation.  I know all about sending in a ticket. Done that enough times. Seems they fall on deaf ears.
