I found this site some 16yrs ago. Having played on and off for a number of years before losing interest in chess for what’s been quite some time, I once again find myself here. And while I am pleased to see a lot of familiar faces, it is a sobering reminder of how much time has passed.

Though I will offer up apologies to those I’ve offended in the past and for the countless fights I’ve picked on these forums. Let us chalk it up to the ignorance of youth. Something I don’t find myself privileged to have anymore. Cheers everyone.

I don't remember you to be honest, but welcome back. The bickering still goes on, just different people at it through the years, I am one of the few constant ones. I even have a fan club follow me around, you will see from the thumbs down....LOL...That is a new feature probably wasn't here when you were thumbs up or down!! 😉

No sir. I don’t remember us having a row, I just remember a lot of names. This is my only account since day 1.

Some people have opinions on some things but "all" of us?

Just name a person who doesn't have an opinion on this site! 😉 Use a regular poster!

I feel you’ve underestimated both my wife’s opinion and overall sense of self importance.

Or else I've underestimated you being able to give an opinion yourself! 😉
