A discussion on bullying

Hey guys. I found this forum post from a while ago and saw this dude make this remark as well as some other comments. His account is still active today, even if it’s likely a troll account. It really begs the question, what can chess.com do about this?

This is one year ago, chess. Com has better things to do than deal with old stuff like this

Just because this specific example is 1 year old doesn’t mean that this isn’t a persistent problem to date. One specific example that I provide is not my entire argument. I’m not asking what to do about this account specifically. Rather, bullying on the site in general. How is it tracked and what are the ways that chess.com is combatting it. Any degree of transparency I suppose.

Lmao the guy with a north Korean flag is trash talking another country.

A better question is why it wasn't dealt with a year ago.

As a South Korean, I can know in 0.00000001 seconds that the North Korean is not an actual North Korean

Probably cause the moderation was trash back then lmao. (I assume, I do NOT know exactly.)

Well I mean personally I think moderation does well to flag or delete hurtful comments, but you need multiple offenses to be muted/banned so?
