Is that video snippet a metaphor for the Grob? ;)
Hmmm...maybe not, he seems to be falling off to the queenside.
Ok, it's a metaphor for the Wing Gambit then...
Chess.com advertises: "We are social". People should be able to discuss what they like within reason.
People can discuss whatever they want within the stated guidelines.
I just looked. There's only 15,000 people online,and 20,000 live. In the middle of a busy holiday weekend. That's not very good.
For the US a busy holiday weekend where a lot of people are spending time outside with friends and family. It is early morning and the beginning of a work week for a lot of others.
Are Sunday afternoons/evenings usually very busy in the forums?

Well yes the forums do have their ups and downs, depending what thread any one of our " Genius " members starts up at any one time. On the Chess side how many threads about Fischer can we handle ? ( Or who is the Best Player etc etc ? ). As for the Off Topic forum you never know what you will find there lol.
Yes! Charge! Finally, someone sees sense - the mods need to be replaced! Charge! Revolution!!! Revolution, I say, DESTRUCTION of the mods!!! CHARGE!!!!
STAFF have destroyed the forums! Let the forum people destroy them! Charge!!!! Revolution!!! Revolution, I say. DESTRUCTION of the forums is not allowed - and we will punish the mods for this with DESTRUCTION of the MODS!!! CHARGE!!!!
Forums are for many different topics, obviously on a chess website there will be LOTS of chess threads. Overall though, no matter which genre of website a forum nests in, forums are generally most useful for being as nutty as possible. And yes, chess.com has become a little more straight laced and MUCH less 'fun' over the last year or so.
