In watching the clip below of Danya's last stream and hearing the pain in his voice, how deeply the baseless accusations affected him, I am left so mad at what we all allowed to happen right in front of us.

It's time to stop worrying about the backlash. I am calling on the FIDE EDC to remove Vladimir Kramnik from the FIDE record books, revoke his title, and disqualify his world championship. Chess is one of the most beloved games in the world and should be a place for kindness and inclusion. It should be unilaterally unacceptable to use a platform that Chess has given you to bully, harass, and slander a colleague. What Kramnik has done to David Navara, Hikaru, and Danya, and others can not be tolerated.

It is up to our community and the governing body to set an example that this type of behavior will have consequences. Make it known loud and clear that Chess stands against these hateful acts. If you do them intentionally and maliciously there will be no place for you in our game.

FIDE and it's EDC must establish clear policies moving forward around the safety of it's players both in person and digitally. The events leading up to this tragedy happened in broad daylight over the last 18 months. They could have been stopped. Nothing like this can ever be allowed to happen again.

The Naroditsky family shares the sad news of Daniel’s unexpected passing. Daniel was a talented chess player, educator, and beloved member of the chess community. We ask for privacy as the family grieves.

I feel like it’s such a drought with esports rn. Every single one feels like its getting run into the ground because of corporate greed. Even the grass roots of melee are starting to feel dry lately.

@GetEmOffMe8 @Stankiniii Hard agree. I’d rather see some change than watch the game i love slowly die though. The next year is gonna be interesting at the very least

@pelumbraz @GX_League Tru but not being able to be exact might be tough when tryna dodge stuns etc in tights spots. It seems interesting to see how it goes

I did it! 40 years old this year.

Since Tekken 8 dropped,
my results have been rough. People said I was done,
washed up, too old to compete.
I didn’t even make it to TWT Finals for the first time. I was frustrated with the game and honestly, I still am in some ways.
But thanks to the dev team’s hard work, it’s been getting better.

I just couldn’t adapt.
Last year was the worst of my Tekken career. I felt lost,
unsure of what to do.
But the answer turned out to be simple: just keep going.
When you do, the right path starts to reveal itself.

Be thankful for your teammates, friends, fellow players, and the fans who support you.
Believe in them and in yourself. That’s how you stand back up.

I hope I’ve shown that there’s still hope for gamers in their 40s. Let’s keep pushing, even when the path is tough.

Thank you to everyone who celebrated with me!
