Who are these “convicts” and how are they impacting the “site’s credibility”?

Third time of asking.

I don't know about Rule #3.

On the other hand, rehabilitation is always a pleasure to enable and behold. So, case by case, I guess.

The other 3 rules are staunchly rooted in common decency, if not common sense. Kudos!

There is no reason to think that a convict or an ex-convict is more likely to infract the ToS than any other RHP member.

Your unique wisdom is not linked to your chess rating old chap.

Nor was Bobby Fischer's high rating linked to his purile naivity.

Tyson, a hardened criminal, known to eat his victims in pies, is more likely to infract RHP's ToS than Barbara from Halifax, mostly here to discuss knitting patterns.

Forensic hospitals are populated by representatives of both extremes: the under controlled and the overcontrolled.

One day Barbara will just drop that one stitch too many...

Tyson apologised and said he was just feeling a bit peckish.
He got life.
Barbara on the other hand has knitted garish tank tops for everyone she has ever met,
and is still free.
Justice?

I wouldn't want to muddy my finger by pointing toward the contentious, old indian standing at the door.

But a multiple-account holder, may be a supporter of even more.

Though there's no cash at stake, no money to lose.
The competitive spirit of the games, can fall prey to a ruse.

More of Divegeester's condescending question game: OK.

Has Suzianne left the site or not? On this question, will you ever admit to hiding, behind the steering-wheel of a big truck, Dodge?

Dealerships want to know.

People with multiple accounts usually cannot disguise them/it. Do some people play chess against themselves?

You can answer that.

I am inclined to think she hasn't. I think she probably reads the threads. She may even still thumb posts down. I think her ostensibly inadvertent posting a few weeks ago had something to do with that.

What's your answer? You are the one who's posting about multiple accounts.

Here's the answer: Just don't have them.
Not only is it against the Terms of Service, it's dishonest.

Are you advocating for dishonesty?

Apparently, she has just been arrested for knitting balaclavas for the criminal underworld.

I miss the days when a chap could readily trust a Barabara.
