Your brain really is non-functional. How is the USCF responsible for

minions (ie. roadrunner) represent their viewpoint unless contradicted
or pulled.



I suppose facts don't matter much to a former lia ... er, _lawyer_,
but the chessdiscussion forum is not pre-moderated, except for a few
people in the moderation queue. The rest of us have our posts appear
immediately. (Of course they can be removed later, just as with the
USCF forums.)

But I have to admit, Brian, that I'm really not sure whether you're a
brazen, dishonest liar, or just an empty suit with a big ego and a
loud voice. Either would fit the facts. Would you care to weigh in on
the topic?

From chessdiscussion today:

Important note, the USCF issues is moderated via queue

Note: this particular forum requires the posts being approved by the
moderation team prior to the post being made public. Our intent is not
to replicate the USCF Issues forum, but have a forum to discuss chess.
It is our hope that the USCF Issues do not overly politicize
chessdiscussions.com. We may turn the moderation queue off in the future.

This is a decision that I have made alone as the head moderator. I
apologize for the inconvenience,

Gregory
