I am not trying to embarrass Dive.
His 843 rating has spoken for itself.
What are you missing?
Maybe Dive doesn't know how the pieces move?
He should seek some chess help perhaps?
As the clan standings will attest.
Do you have any more questions ?
Actually, the answer to that question is no.
Because you do not belong to a clan.
Because you are not a subscriber.
Dive on the other hand is a subscriber and a member of the best clan on this site.
Have a nice day !! 🙂

When I have time I will take a look at one of your games and provide an annotation on your playing ability, opportunities missed and the like.
I know how the pieces move.
Dive doesn't.
Hence 843.

took several hundred games to do it
had to endure viscous accusations of sandbagging
I wanted to become the lowest rated player on the site which seemed doable
but I gave up

But Ghost, he doesn't know how the pieces move. If he did, he wouldn't have a disgraceful rating.
Stop defending him.
I am not Dives pal even though we are in the same Clan, but what you are saying about him not knowing how the pieces move is just plain ridiculous.
I've had my disagreements with Dive in the past and on going with goad. You should listen to goad though as his rating is higher than both yours and mine. He could probably teach you something about the game.
I know what my problem is with my game and am working on it. My rating should be higher than it now is.
For some reason you have a bone to pick with Dive unknown to me.

My own game sir also has weaknesses. I'm mostly an instinctive player and usually get taken apart by an opponent who has really studied the game.

Anyone can alert a post but neither Dive or FMF can ban him, only the Moderators can do that. From much of what I've seen chaney3 was very deserving of the ban the Mod(s) gave him.
Part of my problems with my game is moving too fast or else I will be thinking too many moves ahead and end up moving the wrong piece first which can be a big mistake at times.
I guess learning a few more new openings and defences wouldn't hurt any either. 😉
