Are you trying to upset me or what?
I've already wished him and his family all the best in dealing with family health issues.
One thing makes this situation very unusual. When it comes to my post - I can't touch him because of his family health issues. Yet he is very active on this forum otherwise. Please explain.
Oh, forgot. There is nothing I've said about Aris should've offended him. I've haven't been dealt very nicely here by certain members yet never asked for apologies. The end of story.

Thank you. Can we cool down a few notches please? Many have all sort of expertise to bring to the table. Would it be possible to be respectful to each other regardless of our position on the agenda items? It all starts and ends with respect.

As per the official document provided by FIDE and still accessible online, IA Hal Bond (CAN) has a "distinction" of being the only World event Chief Arbiter in FIDE's history who received a written reprimand for his inadequate performance. Some members of the FIDE disciplinary panel even suggested a suspension.
The event is the 2017 World Youth Chess Ch. in Uruguay that took place *a year before* the 2018 FIDE Elections that were a topic of so many falsehoods and speculations in this discussion. The investigation started in 2017 under Mr. Makropoulos' administration and its results were widely known to the chess community.
A question to the esteemed members of the CFC Executive: when and how Mr. Bond notified you of this exceptional written reprimand?
The relevant authorities might have received information about alleged irregularities and improprieties during Mr. Bond's tenure at other important events. If this is the case, a due process would be followed and the results would be published when appropriate.

While hardly defamatory, my comments could have been more polite and hence I've edited them. Thank you for highlighting this Vlad.
