Does Everyone Belong to a Club?

Howdy,

Now that Spring's here I am considering joining a club and play people IRL or OTB. I get really animated when I play and I get the impression most places are a bit stuffy or intolerant of emotion. Also, are people usually at a higher elo like over 1000 or do you have beginners too? I'm in Montreal btw.

I am sure that every club is different. Most of the clubs I have visited were very welcoming to new players. I guess they most probably do encourage quiet play and discourage throwing of pieces and screaming but I think that most of the ones I have visited weren't stuffy.
