I have not been playing chess at RHP for about four months, but
having returned I notice there is no sign of xenophobe, the all
conquering. Could someone tell me what has happened to him?
I also recall there was a character called xenaphobe who shot up
the ratings - is he, or indeed was he, xenophobe?

My interpretation: The "all conquering" found out that this site was
about more than just chess. He succeeded in alienating just about
everyone. Thrived on that and eventually got bored and took his toys
and left. Life, and chess, continue. Kirk
This site is playing chess in a friendly community. Everyone
makes choices about becoming a part of the community or staying an
outsider. My choice is obviously to contribute to the site with The MAP
War and helping with the Donadoni and the Baker Invitational
tournament. Seems the more I give here the more I get back. Happy
as Pig in Mud here.
