I usually don't comment on this sort of thing. But I'll make an
exception here.

I guess I can understand Bob taking offense at Amir's remarks
in CCC.

Responding by +censoring him on ICC seems a bit strange. If
you just put him on your noplay list, that's fine. IMO anyone
can decide not to play anyone else. I don't take offense at
anyone who has noplayed my program. But IMO you'd censor someone
only if they're being obnoxious or abusive to you on the chess
server (CCC is a different place). And it doesn't sound like
that was the case here. So Amir is probably entitled to be
upset at being censored, assuming he didn't do anything on ICC
to provoke it.

However, I also think Amir's reaction to being censored (forfeiting
the match) was unnecessarily extreme.

In general, it appears to me that both parties here are more
annoyed with one another than the situation warrants. But that's
just my opinion, and I don't know what all went on between them.
