From you?
Sure, I'm as eager to get advice from you as you are in taking advice.

By the way, what "advice" do you think I was offering to fmf?
I have no advice to offer either one of you. If there was anything useful you can take from all that "stuff" I typed then great, good for you.
You seem perturbed.

No. The reason is there's nothing more I would do here to justify paying a subscription. The only upside would be no ads. But ads don't bother or distract me, so no real benefit in paying to get rid of them.

If the "free" part of this arraignment someday goes away, and being here becomes a strictly pay for play proposition, then I'll either pay or go somewhere else... but this would all depend on how personally important it is for me to be here.
All this by you seems a little irrelevant considering you haven’t made a chess move in 81 days.

I don't think I can. It's already naturally and 100% organically funny without my input.

But if anyone could make this any funnier than it already is, that would be Mr Bean.
Mr. Bean was silent.

You seem to be clueless.

I'm not offering FREE advice if that's what you were expecting. Come on, get real. Grow up.
How many people do you imagine want advice with no monetary value? What are you, some kind of bum standing on a street corner with his hand stretched out, waiting for tidbits of wisdom to just drop into his hand?
Where is the value? Do you also value discarded buttons and used chewing gum and pieces of string you find on the ground? Who is going to take anything you say seriously if you settle for scraps no one else wants.

So my advise to you is...

wait for it...


















OH - COME - ON! Wake up!
Haven't you been listening? Put your grimy hand back in your pocket.
I'm not giving out FREE advice!

That's a great selling point!

You've nearly convinced me to pay for the privilege of reading your thought provoking comments. Keep going, you are ever so infinitely close to closing the deal!

Not always. When he did speak he came across as someone having great wisdom and authority... and wisdom.


and authority.

Why would you be posting a bunch of waffle about wether you would subscribe or not when clearly your account is merely a sock puppet through which you can vent your online disinhibition?

If this is so you and your faithful sidekick can thank yourselves for it.
I started off here (the message boards) interested in pursuing a topic someone you don't like brought up. And apparently you two felt it was your duty and God given right to muck up his thread with childish trolling.
It appears the only topic you two are interested in pursuing is yourselves.
And now you're crying because the focus is on you?
Even though you don't deserve it, I'll make an exception in your case and give you one piece of free advice. That's right, FREE!
If you don't want this to be about you, then stop sticking your nose into conversations that have nothing to do with you.

And if you see a sign that says "Warning. Bridge is out", ignore it. Or better yet, hit the gas and speed up.

Well this is my thread and it’s you who is “sticking your nose” into it! Anyway never mind all that obfuscation and flannel…

I’m asking you why you are in my thread making a big deal about wether you will or won’t subscribe when you haven’t made a chess move in 82 days?

It appears to me that your profile here is just a vehicle for you to vent your online disinhibition.

Seeing how it's YOUR thread one might wonder just how it is you were able to misread and mangle the meaning of what was said.

1. Someone asked me a yes or no question
2. I answered the question and gave a reason for my anwer
3. He thanked me for giving an honest answer

That's it. That's all there was to it.
So what part of that exchange did you find to be so awful and terribly offensive?

You're the only one I see here making a big deal over this. Maybe you can persuade fmf to join you. You know, make it a joint effort in pretending to be offended. After all two heads are better than one... or so I've heard.
