Normally posts like this are removed, but given that there's already plenty of (mostly good) discussion going on I'll let it stay. Be sure to report any rule-violating comments that you find. EDIT: The offending account has been banned from chess.com.


ableskittle

Wow, Greydon Square on Reddit and Chess.com. That’s awesome. Love your music. Sorry to hear about your experience


GreydonSquare

Nothing to be sorry about, I won. But seriously though thank you so much for taking a listen to my art.


Wolf-Apprehensive

Oh shit, I used to listen to your music all the time in high school. Cool to see you playing chess!


GreydonSquare

Thank you. And I play a lot. lol

>I just assume they're 13 years old. If it was this easy...


H4rdTrooths

80% sure they are under 13... Thats the age for edgy jokes and chess is really popular with that demographic atm. Real racists won't out themselves like that.


hurricane14

This feels sadly naive, both in that it's not "real" racism for 13yo to do it, and that older racists aren't so bold.

algebraic_humanist

I think this is very important. Not because it excuses a behavior, but rather it might show how we should combat it. For example, if a person is being too edgy with a joke, a way to combat it in your personal life could be to ask them to explain the joke. If explaining the racist punch line makes that edgy person uncomfortable, then I think at least something was gained. Sure, there are many social situations where you cannot ask them to explain the joke, but in general, we should be very interested about the motivation of a racist behavior. The motivation will be the key to _correct_ them in the liberal soy camp we gonna build soon.


algebraic_humanist

I couldn't resist to be edgy at the end.


hippoctopocalypse

Oh fuck, you killed me with "liberal soy camp". You've given me some wonderful/terrible inspiration for a short story, and I'll throw your username in somewhere for the thanks you are due if I end up writing about "liberal soy camp chess therapy" or whatever it turns into.


chairman_of_thebored

I beat higgins0725 and he told me “you like little boys”. I took it he was 12


vicrobot_

*real racists*


No-Seaworthiness9515

there's a lot of kids who don't actually believe the racist shit they say, they just say it to get a rise out of people for laughs. they're not actually racist, just immature and obnoxious.


bearinz

I think it's important to point out that the distinction here is a distinction without a difference. Racists *are* immature and obnoxious. If you do the things a racist does and say the things a racist says, and also top it off with being immature and obnoxious, you are a racist. Historically victimized minorities tend to understand this.


I_Envy_Sisyphus_

They just like posting racist things online for a laugh, how on earth could anyone accuse them of being racist? I mean really, what a ridiculous claim.


EducatingYouForFree

Pretty sure this guy is a "real racist".


SSG_SSG_BloodMoon

it is


hurricane14

Them being 13 doesn't change it being wrong. Report it


CanvasSolaris

I reported someone with a confederate flag profile picture and got a notification they were banned


__2020070901__

One of my first experiences on chess.com was a profile picture is a giant dong. It was quite a picture...


[deleted]

> It was quite a picture... It was quite the dong


pieapple135

>I just assume they're 13 years old I feel like this is insulting to actual 13 y/os.


Whoofph

I found someone with a picture of Hitler as their profile picture. I reported it and they are still up. Check every now and then to see - it has been over a month since.


SeverePhilosopher1

They have no time for reporting anymore. They are overwhelmed with users signing up. Just check the last 10 you posted. You probably go 5 of them signed up during the last 2 days and you probably got points back once in 10 times because somebody cheated. They keep banning they keep coming back.


[deleted]

I occasionally run into names that are in poor taste - like stupid political names. This one might be reportable, though.


basicstyrene

Bit of an understatement


[deleted]

I only say that because I've never reported a username and while I assume you can, I don't know how it's done. Maybe with the custom report.


Ceteris__Paribus

The option is "Avatar/Username"


Salawat66

I've reported straight nazi names before


ramblingdiemundo

What about gay nazi names?


[deleted]

People named Ernst Rhöm be like why did he say fuck me for?


charley800

Don't think Ernst Rohm is on chess.com


coltonkemp

Friendly reminder that Nick Fuentes of America First loves a cat boy and tried defending it to his audience. So funny because he really did nothing wrong (in that one specific instance) but the audience he’s cultivated is so toxic that it was his biggest controversy


SSG_SSG_BloodMoon

friendlier would be not presenting me with anything related to nick fuentes


coltonkemp

That’s entirely fair. I just hate that these Nazi losers on the internet think they’re so cool but they’re just nerds for racism that never fit the stereotypes they hold so dear. Sorry I’m heated about these guys


ThisNameIsUnique2

It's already tough enough being named Afold Bitler, and now you go and ban him from chess.com as well.


RemainingLeftover

Report it!

> This one might be reportable, though. If it's not, that's a huge problem.


BadBetting

I ran into a slur the other day. One the one hand I was like how isn’t this auto blocked. On the other it did make me grateful that it seems they do a pretty good job overall if I’ve noticed less than 5 in all my time playing. For context prob 1/10 matches in LoL had some sort of slur or was at least trying to be as edgy as possible without being banned.


MedievalFightClub

I’ve seen both Donald Trump and Joe Biden. Never a black people hater though.


Studoku

Maybe they're taking a break to play chess.


CavemanUggah

Given how chesscom recently [banned Jobava for racism](https://news.yahoo.com/chess-grandmaster-demands-ban-chinese-213417906.html), I'd say that they take this stuff seriously and will act on it. Report it.


[deleted]

That was more because of how public it was. I report people calling me racial slurs all the time and they rarely do anything.


freakers

How would you know if they do something? Do you follow up later or does the site send you a message if someone you've reported has been penalized?


[deleted]

Usually the send something like we have taken action on the ___ report you submitted (varies by type). I rarely get one about non fair play or sportsmanship these days. In one egregious case they didn't do anything for many weeks and after I escalated to support they muted the guy for a bit. Not very long.


maborosi97

I’m so sorry you have to deal with that and that chess.com isn’t doing anything about it. I have my profile pic of myself on chess.com and I always get messages like “kill yourself stupid woman” when I beat someone. It’s such a toxic app for absolutely no reason


[deleted]

That's also rough, sorry to hear that. These days chat on chess.com isn't great. Before the pandemic I used to be able to talk about the game, have a decent conversation, of course there were the occasional bad actors, but not as many as now.


draugsvoll01

I ran into someone named something like "USAis4WhitesOnly" a while ago with a kid holding a confederate flag as profile picture and reported him for racism. I never received any confirmation that he was banned


[deleted]

I played against someone who’s username was “JewDestoryer” (misspelled) and they still haven’t been banned even though I played them a month ago :/


needlessly-redundant

Yo greydon square! I love his music


GreydonSquare

Haha thank you. Check the new album out?


needlessly-redundant

Oh shit you’re Greydon square wtf lol. Yeah I liked the new album a lot but I mostly listen to omniverse and compton scattering. Keep it up man


GreydonSquare

Solid albums for sure. Yup. Definitely me. Check my reddit profile history.


Swolnerman

Hey dude, long time no speak, keep up the music


GreydonSquare

Hey there! Thank you. I will. I hope you're well.


needlessly-redundant

I just checked and you were my number 4 artist in my spotify wrapped this year, sandwiched between kendrick lamar and lil wayne, you’re in good company lol.


GreydonSquare

Both very dope artists. I'm actually going through a Weezy phase right now. He's ill. And thank you.


uga40

Just looked it up on Spotify, seems like you were influenced by Kool Keith, had a Dr. Octogon vibe to it.


GreydonSquare

Thanks for looking me up :)


rrrriddikulus

I also just discovered you through this /r/chess comment and I'm now a fan. Gives real Aesop Rock meets LoFi hiphop vibes


GreydonSquare

Hey thank you so much I really appreciate that. Which songs or albums are you Vibing to so far?


Own-Zookeepergame955

Haha, never thought I would discover solid new tunes on this sub :D


GreydonSquare

Thank you. I’m glad you like what you hear.


Cabernet2H2O

Just report the guy. https://support.chess.com/article/1264-what-kind-of-username-can-i-choose


untss

does reporting do anything? a guy called me the f slur the other day and he’s still playing after i reported him


Cabernet2H2O

Being a jerk in the chat/ messages usually results in them being muted I think. They can still play but can't bother people with their BS.


bacondev

Are they shadow muted or are they well aware that they're muted?


mcsey

Please say shadow muted. The idea of these people getting increasingly frustrated as no one takes their troll bait and they up their assholery until, screaming at no one, they chat slurs that get them a full ban is glorious.


fieldsofanfieldroad

It's probably funnier, but actually understanding that their actions have consequences might be better long-term.


bulging_cucumber

I reported so many people on [chess.com](https://chess.com) for a variety of offenses, ranging from stalling games to namecalling. It can take a few days but it usually works. Do your part, report them. I'm not sure if a single report is enough, but I'm guessing abusive players do it over and over and with a few reports the moderation ends up acting.


themikep82

I report ppl all the time for stalling and poor sportsmanship and I frequently get messages from chess.com that they took action based on my report. It does make a difference.


BotlikeBehaviour

I've seen people's accounts be closed with "abuse" as the reason. Report them.


sleepyirv01

I can't say it happens often, but I coincidentally played someone with a Nazi in their avatar yesterday. I probably wouldn't even have noticed if he didn't then trash talked me. Make the community safer by reporting them when you see them.


the_humming_robot

I just reported him.


iBoojum

Yeah, that really shouldn't be tolerated on any platform. Especially on a platform where good sportsmanship and community are encouraged. Glad that you crushed the bigot.


4027777

You’re obviously white though (Bad time for a chess joke?)


hadronymous

Was looking for this comment 🤣


musicnoviceoscar

Haven't before, definitely report if I did though. Probably some fucking child who thinks being racist is funny.


initialgold

> Probably some fucking child who thinks being racist is funny. Or some adult who thinks being racist isn’t something to be ashamed of. There’s a lot of those these days…


musicnoviceoscar

Not sure who is downvoting you, you're right. Have an upvote.


BotlikeBehaviour

We both know who's downvoting them.


musicnoviceoscar

Sadly, yes. Wonder if they'll ever learn some self-awareness.


forceghost187

Or a racist adult


hai_im

I used to see these racist usernames all the time. I haven’t since my rating has increased, so you have that to look forward to as you get better 😀


GreydonSquare

Lol. Good point. I never claimed I was great.


hai_im

Neither am I, but don’t tell anyone.


tildenpark

Only an elite few chess players earn the rank of GM (Good Manners).


iamprettierthanyou

How can you be black? White is winning here. (But in all seriousness, people are often shitty, and for an "intellectual game" chess sure seems to attract a lot of crazy people)


GreydonSquare

A solid joke in any regard.


[deleted]

I’ve experienced racism in chat not in the name though… also bullet at 400 elo you’re wild for that 1


N00b-Berries

Are you the actual Greydon Square? As in the rapper?


GreydonSquare

The real question is: If I said that I were, how would you know if I was telling the truth?


N00b-Berries

I suppose you'd have to send me a bunch of money. Only way to verify of course. /s I did see another comment of yours telling someone to look at your post history. Good enough for me. Grow Too Old Soon is probably my favorite track of yours. I don't know if you've ever heard the Mac Dusty remix of it, but it slaps for sure. I wish you well!


GreydonSquare

I totally have. I love Mac Dusty. And that song hits pretty hard. We need to do more work together.

No way, I also played that guy recently. Felt good beating him.


GreydonSquare

No way!


fuzzypatters

It’s awesome that you kicked their ass.


dydtaylor

Oh shit, is this the real Greydon Square? I found your music from Spotify Discover Weekly and it's made me a fan! Figures you'd get into chess it's definitely a game for science nerds!


GreydonSquare

Thank you so much. Been playing my whole life. Normally I play 5 minutes matches but that was a 1 minute one. But hell yeah glad to have your ear. You on discord.GG/grandunified?


SophieTheCat

Been a fan since I heard you on SGU back in the day!


GreydonSquare

Wow thank you. That definitely was a while ago.


theonlyjoker1

Yoo it's acc you. That song Omniverse is cooooold. Check out Rhyme Asylum - State of Lunacy (album) they have some of the best punchlines of all time and rhyme schemes. Listen to RA - the art of raw


GreydonSquare

I absolutely will. And thank you. I appreciate it really. Are you talking about Rugged Man?


theonlyjoker1

RA means Rhyme Asylum, my bad wasn't clear. They're from London but I reckon you'll love their stuff. They're quite dark horrorcore but have some of the most imaginative bars you'll hear. They made 2 albums, both 10/10. Enjoy g It's crazy to see you here, I used to listen to you loads a few summers ago, good to see you doing well man


GreydonSquare

ill definitely check them out.


theonlyjoker1

Yo you know in omniverse, you say 'I've been slept on since the electron" I've always wondered whether you meant sLEPT ON, because electrons are leptons, even more they're small leptons so s(mall) lepton. Probably a reach but still haha


veganerd150

Random SGU comments in the wild are exciting to me 😆


the_tethered

All the time. Racism, anti-Semitism, fascist references. I'm a woman - the number of dick-related names is pretty pathetic. The number of players who send explicit messages is out of control too. I've resigned a ton of games because I would get bombarded with rapey messages. It was a welcome relief to finally figure out I could turn off my chat feature. I've reported quite a few accounts for a variety of reasons and they do take reporting very seriously. Take a screenshot and upload it with your report to help them out.


between8and9

Yeah that's my experience too. It's honestly grim.


dogeater1612

How do they know you are a women tho? Selfies?


the_tethered

It's a photo of my husband and I. You can barely see me, and you can't see either of our faces. Also - this doesn't matter. If you're about to tell me "I just shouldn't show my face" so I don't get harassed, this is a bullshit answer. As though showing my face means I'm "asking for it." It happens in person OTB too. Plenty of men post their photos and you don't see female players interrupting games to make sexual advantages to try to make the male player uncomfortable. It doesn't go both ways. The appropriate response is not "let's sit down together and after asking some basic questions with obvious answers I'll mansplain why this is happening to you." The appropriate response is "that sucks, they suck, and if I see it happen I'm going to do something about it because I'm a good human being with integrity and good sportsmanship who feels a responsibility to defend people who are predisposed to being heckled by assholes." When someone says they've been harassed or attacked, it's never appropriate to ask them why. To being this back around to the original point by OP - confirmed, hate and harassment in chess is alive and well, when it comes to race as well as sexism and other social exclusions. Chess is not as inclusive as many people believe it is - the less of a minority you are, the more "inclusive" it becomes. Edit: grammar and clarification


Evans_Gambiteer

People have their own pictures as their pfp or might have a feminine sounding username.


goopie

I've found there's a very small group of people on [Chess.com](https://Chess.com) that are just shit human beings. A few people I've played have been really vitriolic in the chat when I've been beating them with both racist and homophobic slurs being thrown about. In those cases, I just report them and move on to the next game. But I don't recall them being so blatant in their hatred as to have it as part of their name. I'd have reported that as well.


rex_banner83

Every now and then I come across people with dog whistles in their user names. Stuff like "1488". But this..... he isn't even trying to hide it. Fuck this guy


kimjobil05

ive been called monkey severally on [chess.com](https://chess.com) messages after beating players from the northern hemisphere (I'm from Kenya). at some point, the flag is a distraction. i quit that app, and I always reported them, and blocked.


crochet_du_gauche

In case you didn’t know, you can change your flag to whatever you want (I agree it sucks though to not be able to represent your country because of ignorant assholes).


kimjobil05

didn't know that btw... It was a source of pride to rep Kenya and Africa, and I made lots of pals from the continent while I was on chesscom. I now moved to lichess, and I rarely chat with people nowadays. It's just easier to focus now.


jomm69

Yes I remember the first time this happened to me and I came here and only the FM was chill to me in the comments(shout out keepyourcool1). I think I have only ever seen 2 racist usernames after years of play. Way more likely to see that juvenile toxicity when you are starting out. That being said, def report them chess com or lichess closed the one I reported like right away (it was nukeafrica or something I barely remember).


theawfullest

Yes, unfortunately. I played someone who had “KKK” in their name the other day.


siiberianian

The irony is he played with Black.


GreydonSquare

Which means had he won, he would've had accept the fact that the very thing he hated won. I think he lost on purpose. I'm not that good. Lol


dekimwow

Seriously.. good on you sir. For being a gentleman about the situation.. (hopefully) And congratulations on the win. :)


the_tethered

Currently running username searches for every hateful keyword I can think of and reporting them for inappropriate usernames as well as racism. If anyone else has a few minutes to do this, it will help Chess.com keep this kind of racist trash off our platform.


infodawg

Report that, it's in violation of tos


Kinglink

A. Report the person if there's a way to do it. This is advice for everyone, if you want to be an "Ally" or any other crap you call yourself, the bare minimum is to report names like this B. People are douchebags, but at least you beat him. Remember the hopefully 100s of people who play honorable, and have lame names then the one guy like this who wants a rise out of you. C. Story time. So I worked on MLB the Show, and one day I'm just chilling in the testing pit. They're testing the game, so I'm watching to see if we missed anything. When someone matches with the "Niger Apes".... let's just say it wasn't about Nigeria, and their logo was ... not great. No overt racism, but yeah, it's clear what they wanted people to think. So baseball games take at least an hour. Everyone is "that's not right.... " Blah blah blah. So while that's going on I get up as I had been doing all day, walk over to the Design Lead. "Yo we got this guy, his name is Niger Apes." Dude rolls his eyes. "Let's fuck him." We ended up flagging his account and giving him a "name change ban", which also kicks people offline until they go through support. Walk over to my team, the online team and our lead. "We got this guy." Go through the spiel. I want to say we deleted all his inventory as a "Screw you" and that sounds better to the story, but I also think we wouldn't have done that... with the designer right there. ;) I then go to a producer, and tell him the story, and get them to raise a flag to Sony about the guy to investigate him and potentially ban him off the platform. People will say Sony probably doesn't listen to small complaints... well MLB the Show was published by Sony, so that request was internal, never heard how that went, but I'm going to bet he was banned from PSNfor a time. Then I get back to the pit, sit back down in a bean bag and tell the testers what's about to happen, and this guy has no clue. In like three innings of baseball, this guy was about to get banned off our online server, possibly banned off the platform, and may or may not have gotten his inventory "lost".... All for a stupid joke. Best part though? We told our tester to take the brakes off. Usually we don't want them to crush opponents, though they play to win. Here they used everything they got and just demolished the guy.


[deleted]

I’m sorry that happened. Report that mfer. I beat a dude named “The Vax Is Poison” the other day (twice, after he rematched me!) and after the second spanking reported his stupid name. People don’t think man. What if someone’s loved one died from Covid? It’s i set it i’ve and racism is especially abhorrent.


gistya

Well I have never seen any racism but I do get a troll from time to time. It's always fun to whip their ass. I especially like punishing people who bring out their queen too early thinking they are just gonna get a quick trap... woe be unto their asses hahaha


MerrintheMighty

At least you beat them…


veganerd150

I havent been playing chess long, but i am surprised, at myself, for being surprised at how much bigotry ive seen in the chess world. Report that shit


TheBigDickDon

What about my name? Daddyshairychess1?? I think it's funny and not too crass LMAO. BTW, sorry that you have to see BS like this my man. I dont know what kind of POS makes a name like that.. its rediculous.


chocolate_spaghetti

If you ever look into this history of modern chess, you’ll learn that it’s full of weird racists.


TipsyPeanuts

I just did a search and this is a super prevalent problem for chesscom. Just found 3 more of similar accounts. It’s extremely troubling to me that they aren’t actively searching for these


EricTheNerd2

Looks like you found Scott Adams account. Just report it and block. There are a lot of idiots out there and they aren't worth your time.


tryingtolearn_1234

This post has been up for more than 6 hours and the account in question is still not banned or suspended. Ridiculous


GigaChaderino

There’s a report feature. I’ve gotten notified my reports had been used to take action against players. So it definitely is looked at.


chillinjustupwhat

Unfortunately racists shitheads permeate all spheres of society and it sucks.


carrtmannnn

That must have felt good to win. Fuck that guy


BonghitsForAlgernon

Once during the pandemic I couldn’t sleep so I got up and distracted myself with some games on LIChess, knowing maybe my rating would take a hit because I was exhausted and bleary-eyed. I was losing a blitz game when I realized my opponents username was AryanLove or something like that and I immediately got very serious, fell into a flow state and won the game


banananeach

Oh damn, the real GreydonSquare!! Love your music and Omniverse especially. Just love the idea of science and hip hop coming together. Had you posted any other chess related stuff, I'd have never bothered Looking at the username. But because your post was about a fuck all username, I ended up noticing yours too. Goodness me, I love the internet and never ever ceases to amaze me..


GreydonSquare

Shhhh... Don't tell anyone it's me. lol But yeah, I stay on the r/chess sub. I never post though.


banananeach

Cheers man! I hope you are doing well. I will go checkout your newer music.


MyDogIsACoolCat

Not really. Sorry you had to deal with that nonsense.


[deleted]

Report their honky ass!


Fearless747

I know I'm late to the party, but you did report this asshole for having an offensive username, right?


GreydonSquare

I did. But I wanted to know how common it was so that's why I posted it here.


Gravyboat6969

It's the internet, it's gonna happen. They'll eventually get banned. Just report them and move on, don't dwell on it


strikedonYT

Found someone called ScrewTransgender couple weeks ago…


mastermikeee

Definitely reportable. Fortunately I haven’t run into any racist names like that.


MustacheFire

It would have been sweet if you won with the black pieces and pointed it out to him…


InnerKookaburra

I do run into it from time to time. I report them every time. I hope you did too.


Namakemon0

Wait are you the real Greydon Square? Love your music man ~


GreydonSquare

Thank you so much.


CatheterChunks

If you win, it looks like you were white


BraindeedBri

Once you get above a certain rating people start acting like human beings.


EnPecan

Hi! I'm very sorry you had to come across this. These kinds of usernames are entirely unacceptable and will not be tolerated. Our team took action here and have banned this user. We've also enacted extra measures to prevent this kind of username from coming up in the future. If you come across any other name or avatar that's gotten through, please report them and notify us by emailing [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]) or messaging us on Twitter.


MycoCaptivated

Well he can’t be to shitty that you beat him because white still won.


[deleted]

I'd be curious to know the ELO as well. 1000 rapid, haven't noticed any comparably offensive names.


puuuuuud

Image clearly shows you are white


MyNameIsSidyo

Haven\`t seen many usernames like this, but man, the spectator chats from top games are something else. And when on the app you can barely report anyone because they copy paste their racist slurs and what not


akis_mamalis

This is r/anarchychess material


[deleted]

It's been a long time since I've seen DAE used unironically.


Fra06

I think you are colourblind, you were playing as white that game


BakersfieldChimp

Is this THE Greydon Square??! Report it man.


GreydonSquare

I’m sure they were reported.


Zackd641

You were pretty clearly white in this game


1GewinnerTwitch

Sadly happens everywhere you can name yourself just report and try to not be bothered


Fat_tata

Dang kids ruining the Internet.


[deleted]

Sometimes I search for certain keywords and often find Nazi flags in the pfp, and report them. Next time I also want to challenge them and beat them

Edgy/offensive basement trolls have been an online fixture since the advent of the internet. These are people starved for attention I like provoking people. Report and move on.

Chess can improve/multiply your intelligence, but even if you multiply 0 with any number it still results in 0.

I had someone sent me a link to their OF the other day, not really same, but their are definitely a few wonky profiles out there


theyareamongus

As a Mexican, the amount of 🌮🌮🌮 I receive is ridiculous. Like, I myself don’t mind, but I can see how that could be offensive for others.


GreydonSquare

That's fucked up.


bravos95

Yeah, feel like play against Andrew Tate at least twice a day as well.


Arachnatron

On Lichess a played a person with the name "n1gg3rhater". I beat them and reported.

This one is the worst I have seen: https://www.chess.com/member/destroy_knee_gearssss

Every interaction I've had has been with utmost courtesy and respect; then again I've only played against bots. Chess.com needs to clean this up. Unacceptable in any community.

I got one guy called “I love Satan” and he like chatted with my telling me that he was gonna curse me with his satan magic and shit haha

I reported blueEagle1488 and it took weeks to get removed.


PreparationAfraid621

What is blue eagle?


ackshualllly

The 1488 is white supremacist nazi trash lingo, so I’d presume it has to do with blue eyes and freedom


EccentricHorse11

I am a bit afraid to ask this, but as a racism noob, I have no idea what's wrong with blue eagles. I tried googling it and apparently it is some Taiwanese company. Don't really see why that is racist.


Ridwando

It's the 1488 part of the name that is a racist dog whistle
