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.

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.

Having said that I ask what are YOU going to do to start up some interesting new threads   Hmmmm ???

I, for one, started a smart and literate discussion on books.

Thank you.
