Kings and p0wned... game over.

I alerted him to the fact that there was trash talk going on about him. I am a former student of his in chess. I find it disgusting that you all would purposely seek to discredit him. The photos you saw or see, I guess he took it down, are him.
Why don't you guys find something to do worth while in chess rather than discredit another? Come on....

He is demolishing highly rated existing players on the site.
Looking at the top USCF ranking it wouldn't be too hard to see if the player in question was rated based on his given age and picture.

People aren't necessarily looking to discredit the player, they are looking to see if they can verify that they are as good as they seem to be.
There have been too many people claiming to be something they are not.

I almost believed Lex Rex.. after all anyone who attended Harvard finds a way to mention it in the first sentence when you meet them...
But it is a tad suspcious when someone who has NEVER made a forum post and has timed out every game for months on end mysteriously appears solely to defend their "coach" - how timely.
