In recent weeks the volume of posts to the beta forum has rocketed. The purpose of the forum is to report bugs and provide feedback with regard to the Beta version.

The Chess.com staff need to review each post. As responsible members of the Beta community each of us should do our best to:
1. Minimize duplicate topics by:
   a. Checking to see if there already is a topic. (see item 2)
   b. Not posting multiple topics, instead post a comment
2. When posting a topic provide a clear concise Topic title so readers can accomplish item 1a.
         Far too many times their is a topic of  just "Bug". This is doing a disservice to the Checc.com staff and the Beta community. 
          Fix unclear topic title and topic message body via the Edit Forum Topic button:

3. Don't hijack the topic with off topic comments or snarky/half-witty comments.
4. Be considerate, There are young members and members where English is not their first language. Criticizing their grammar or spelling is not adding any value to the discussion.
5. Help the Chess.com staff by reducing the posting traffic by asking yourself "Do I have a comment that adds value to the discussion?" If no then don't post.

I have like 50 notifications for Chess.com Beta alone. And not all of them are legitimate

Lock the forum. Only useless comments (other than the +_s) are coming out of this now.
