"I won't bother to read the previous pages, as it'll be the same exact 'discussion' it always is. but I am going to say what I've said in every other thread like this before:

all you low rated people who think books and especially dbs are 'cheating', start using them. it won't give any e, but even it has had modifications, are we not allowed to talk?
that's completely ridiculous. what would you call the group of players who have a low rating?

You have offered no a ...[text shortened]... decisively, but you have proven yourself impervious to evidence.

No more food for the troll.
Blindly quoting the TOS of this site is not the same as addressing the issues of using databases and chessbooks to make moves, and whether or not that can be considered to be a form of cheating. To me that is a cowardly act.

Get off your high horse and come p emented game, but even it has had modifications, are we not allowed to talk?
Bravo! Only severely delusional and deficient person would imply that others have nothing to say or don't have any standards, based on an artificial measure such as an online chess rating. Pointless in the extreme.

And don`t forget - he is so upset about "cowardly acts". Probably avoiding answers is very brave act for him 😀

Be my guest, your thick ad hominem rich posts show that you have no position to defend, your silly baiting attacks are next to worthless.

How is aranging you to talk to a correspondence chess master a baiting tactic. You can if you wish choose to a)talk to the master and get more information, or you can b)keep ignoring this offer.

But it strikes me as you not wanting to broaden your mind and gather all the facts, even those that will crush your misunderstanding as running in the same vein as why you're against databases and books.

He is just coward - he afraids to confess in his lazyness and/or inability to use books and databases. And he is hiding behind high-sounding phrases.

Isn`t he miserable?

Ridiculous is your obvious ignorance and inability to understand obvious difference between OTB and CC.

P.S. Are you pretend to be more qualified in chess than me?
