Makes sense. Too bad Icarus decided on wax rather than a cape back in those mythological times.

Grampy Bobby is known for harvesting personal data of
players here, both in private clan forums, open forums, and
even personal contact (Skype, phone, email, etc.)

Whenever he doesn't get his way, or what he believes is his
due of praise, he uses such information to post passive
aggressive threads, posts, copy paste orgies, etc.

There you go.
Let's keep this on page for the benefit of Ghost Hunter.

Be careful liaising with unstable people.

I was stalked by an RHP poster called zeeblebot some years ago. He kept PM-ing with guesses-based-on-his-research of my name, address and job.

Timely question.

My sole concern would be that Red Hot Pawn Terms of Service were being willfully violated and that site admin had become lax in its enforcement:

"3. YOUR REGISTRATION OBLIGATIONS

In consideration of your use of the Service, you represent that you are of legal age to form a binding contract and are not a person barred from receiving services under the laws of the United States or other applicable jurisdiction. You also agree to :

(a) You will not create more than one account.

(b) While a game is in progress you may not refer to chess engines, chess computers or be assisted by a third party. Endgame tablebases may not be consulted during play but you may reference books, databases consisting of previously played games between human players, and other pre-existing research materials.

(c) You may not threaten or harass other users of this Service.

(d) You will not use RHP if you are under 13 years old."

It's unusual to hear you say something as negative and condemnatory about Russ as this.

It could be a police officer involved in a sting operation.
