Actually that was the reason I got that nickname :) I did not mean to poke fun of the fact that you did not know that he is nicknamed chucky like ponomariov is pono, kasparov is kaspy, morozevich is moro etc. What i found funny however was the fact that you saw it as a lack of respect, when it is actually a sign of affection to give someone a nickname and i guess could be percieved as respectful aswell.
