So on his say so, person XYZ becomes a hustler? Naming people on forums can lead to claims for defamation, you do not need to be Kavanagh QC to know the consequences of libel/defamtion. Why are cheating accusations not allowed on this very forum?
Most of us here are from a different geographic region so telling us any such allegations is pointless.
Edit: I realized I was wasting my time arguing with the pc police and deleted it.

You don't dictate to me what I should or should not post. If you don't like it then get out of the forum!
- why cheating accusations are not allowed on this forum(s)
- why you have not approached the USCF or the tournament director of the relevant tournament. What will you achieve via the route chosen rather than via the appropriate official route? Gossip value?

Originally posted by BedlamI did not miss any point. A good story or not you do not use the name of a real player(a clap to anyone who tells me why). Are you saying that this is news to you? Is demand for a touch of decency too much?

Are you insane? 🙂
Why dont you go remove the Kamsky and Short names from that thread.....its exactly the same.

Originally posted by NordlysIndeed, I think z00t should write to chessbase and ask them to remove all the names from each article, after that he can start on the news channels etc.
Now that you mention it... I think the World Championship should be played anonymously, too.
z00t I have a gold star for you if you can tell me why its not wrong......Im sure if you spent at least a few mins thinking about it you will get there.

Chessbase doesnt make allegations at all, it does however contain reports from people that allegations have been made. Topalov's teams allegations would be a good place to start if you want to look....
You seem to be comparing Arrakis to chessbase. Well the comparison would be Chessbase to RHP and Arrakis to a reporter.

Originally posted by BedlamI think the main misunderstanding here is that most of us would consider it a compliment to be called a chess hustler.
Ahhh right I see it now, if I put into the Kamsky and Short thread that Nigel Short was a hot headed foo, you would protest again?

Originally posted by z00tIts just that z00t going through his monthly cycle and needs something to moan about. z00t once said my chess was wind powered, isnt that the same as being called a hustler?
If you made such a serious baseless defamatory allegation against Short, I would be obliged in notifying him.
[b]While you are at it, cut the crap. It is one thing to report on a conversation. It is another to make a cheating accusation/slur on another.[/b]
Originally posted by BedlamWind assisted not wind powered. I'm too tired to look but you must be one of the jokers who was saying that you cannot challenge Anand's line of play (simply because he is Anand).

If you notice my style of posting I hate spam/crap posted in the Only Chess forum (that kind of crap can go in the General Forum). I also dislike people who argue when their point is lost. I thought you were more sensible than that Bedlam.
Perhaps over the holiday period when I'm less busy we can "fight it out" over the board and see who plays wwind assisted chess?
