Please note that I DO NOT play rated games, so please don't challenge me to them!
Update... someone is now lobbying to get me BANNED from chess.com! I am not scared in the least however, as he has had three accounts banned, and is now IP tracked...
VERY IMPORTANT: There are many people who will say pretty nasty things about me, please do NOT listen to them!!!!!!!!!!!
Some general rules for my threads (in no particular order):
- Be nice.
- Stay on-topic
- Don't advertise groups
