I see here https://www.zoominfo.com/c/english-ches ... /348404454
that the English Chess Forum employs 21-50 people and has income of between $1 million and $5 million.
Having carried out rigorous enquiries about the headquarters in Stockport, I find that it's the Stockport Masonic Guildhall. Clearly an enquiry is called for if all these funds are going to the Freemasons.

Even if it is true and they are creaming money off the top (which is quite possible) you'll not be able to do anything about it, the freemasons are far too powerful of an organisation for one man to take on.
Lose one queen and it is a disaster, Lose 1000 queens and it is just a statistic.

Nothing to worry about. No money is being creamed or laundered. All the millions are correctly being used to sustain and encourage those hard-working posters who are prepared to write endlessly and mindlessly on anything or really nothing at all just to keep the Forum going. We salute them!

The Guildhall is in fact the venue for the Stockport Rapidplay congress, but I don't think it's quite that lucrative!
