Strange as it may seem a/c, I do take JAK at face value. He is one of the squarest guys I have met.

So, tell me....do you like Ax's posts?

lol Trevor, for some strange reason I think I had voted against Ax in that poll, maybe because I was arguing at the time that he shold not be given priviledges other members don't have or something like that! I don't know if Bill or Kev can help to clarify this! I will ask them!

Well I equate square with being boring. A square peg in a round hole misses out on a lot of the best twisted bits on the edges.

About Ax's posts, I don't even read them. I read one of the early ones re the tigers, good story-teller this guy I thought. But as completely harmelss should never have been banned.

All those religious idiots cant prove one thing but they rant and rave about JC (on CC), yet when Ax shows a bit of real creativityy he is barred by the Nazi's. And worse still those religious nuts are serious.

Just as they persecuted you over there for no reason they also picked on Ax. Why don't they also pick on the religious nuts.

JAK...boring?
At least he doesn't do flavoured analysis.

Agreed...there comes a time when authority is mis-used and has to be questioned. JAK can go missing on this.

And your long-standing experience with bulletin-boards should be appreciated.

Well, you have to say that ADMIN #Baz does his best to tear the flesh.
But, you are correct...like where is the Fiction tag they make appear on Ax's threads?

BUT!!!!!
BUT...
Just think about it!
JaK has spent most of his youth fighting fascist nuckleheads
under dictatorship regimes
at school
in the streets
in the army

later on in life
as a unionist
involved in all sorts of freedom movements
mainly from an anarchistic point of view and not as party hardliner

THEN the Chess Chat Forums!!!
AUTHORITY??? what kind of?
they are a service to the Chess community! You find useful information about events in Australia and all over the world there, you can promote chess related events and personalities there!
It's a free service to the community. Someone has to pay for them to keep them going.
Some others have to provide their volunteer work (additional to their volunteer work in clubs and other chess related administration) to keep them going.
What AUTHORITY?
WHAT DEMOCRACY?
WHAT PRICE DIGNITY?
Having said all that, there are times that mods and admin make my stomach turn with their attitude. I am about to explode, to hit back, to go ballistic!
Then I think about it! Would I be able to provide the service they provide If they weren't there?
NO!
Would I be able to last one hour (let alone one day) in their shoes?
NO!
Would I go off against them and say "stuff your forums"? Would I confront the crackpots, lone rider losers, unwashed blockheads who think they can poke fun at me in the shoutbox? Would I take them for a nice face to face private meeting outside the tournament hall next time I see them around? and they know I go around places alot don't they?
You can guess the answer to all the above!
Hey Trevor I just saw this post and my apologies for not responding earlier!
See you on Friday at BHCC! I missed the FIDE thing all together, was expecting to get an invy since I am a FIDE rated player now!

Jaydon, I don't know who you are but over there Gunnar referred you as a twit for advocating the unbanning of Axiom, in the help and feedback thread I think it was.

If you don't dispute it people may believe it?

If he wants to make such an uneducated opinion of myself then he is free to do so. If they get such a kick out of insulting a junior who am I to spoil their fun?

Does Gunnar post here? maybe not but he likes criticising the place. He should come over here and make a stand and take on all comers!

Did you have to reproduce the whole bloody text just to ask a question? Geez apart from being a waste of time you are also a waste of space!
Actually i am referring to all who think I am bootlicking because I don't go against authority! (I've included the reasons why not, read carefully)!
In fact in the list of the oppressively dictatorial forces I 've fought against I forgot to include a couple of ex wives, they were the worst actually!

Actually, the get a kick out of insulting a lot of people - not just limited to juniors. Hence, the reason this place exists - something of a sancuary from their abuse, where we can freely and civily discuss chess - and have fun at the same time! .
