INTRODUCE YOURSELF

Hello @BISHOP_e3, my countrymen. Kamusta ka? Enjoy and cheers. 

Dear Chessfriend,

My name is Gabor Balazs. I am a Hungarian FM, fighting for the IM title. My top ELO is 2435. I have been playing chess for 21 years. I won the Hungarian Rapid Championship twice (U16 and U18).

I love teaching chess and it is very important for me that both of us enjoy the lessons beside the hard work. I have pupils almost all the levels from beginners to advanced players (1100-2200 ELO).

You can see a lot of feedbacks from my coaching services here: https://www.chess.com/forum/view/chess-lessons/feedbacks-from-my-services

Why should you choose me?

- I have a widespread opening repertoire (a lot of openings are analysed by strong Grand Masters).

- I have a lot of chess books in PDF and Chessbase format, so I can teach you the main middlegame plans, the art of calculations, famous chess games and the endgame theory.

- I have elaborated, personalized training plans, which help you to improve your skills effectively.

- I help you analyse your games deeply, so you can realise your mistakes and learn from them.

- I am really flexible and hard-working person, the quality of my work is really important for me.

My rate is 50 USD/hour.

Please, contact me (balazsgabor1991@gmail.com), if you are interested in working with me, I am looking forward to your message. 

Hey Ray I'm Kev new to the site too hope you have a great time here.

#140 - Hello Kev, thank you for posting here. I'm not new to this site. I was here since September 21, 2007. I'm already almost 13 years ago here and still counting. I created this thread/topic on that date when I was new to this site in 2007. 

Yes, I have a good time here since I'm introducing myself here and anywhere in the social media, chess sites, Internet.

#141 - CJ (4gotten_legend), dapat nga isuot ang Bandera natin. Pagpasensiyahan mo na ako kung hindi ko maisuot ang bandera natin. Ang mahalaga hindi ko nalilimutan ang Bansa natin at lagi akong nagbabakasyon sa Pilipinas. 

Matagal na kasi ako dito sa USA noong pang 1970 kaya mula ng mag pa rehistro ako dito sa chess.com noong 2007 ito na ang nilagay kong bandera kaya mula noon hindi ko na pinalitan pa.

Uulitin ko, pagpasensiyahan mo na ako na hindi ko na mapalitan yan. Basta ang mahalaga hindi ko nalilimutan ang bansa nating Pilipinas at lagi akong nagbabakasyon sa atin. 

Paki balato mo na sa akin ang nakalagay na bandera ko dito.

so this was how the old emojis looked?

@foofooes, Hahaha... maybe ....

Hello Bill.

I'm 17.
My hobbies are chess. Video games. Anime. Cartoons. YT. and Rock music.
I'm usually a very calm and serious person. When I get mad I often end up hurting myself.
I swear a lot but am perfectly fine with not swearing if it annoys people.
I can't stand people who break rules that they themselves have agreed to follow. I also can't stand abusers.
I have basically zero confidence in myself and often think of myself as worthless.
I gave up on life years ago.
I learn things very quickly if they peak my interest.
My most nostalgic video games are probably "sly cooper" and "ratchet and clank".
I'm insanely good at "Mario kart 8".
I love nature and hate cities.
I have awful sleeping patterns.
I love rickrolling. Mostly when I do it.
When I have a headache it almost always has to get to a really bad point before I take pills for it.
I'm pretty addicted to music and YT.
I'm a genuine jerk in "real-life".
I love helping others. Unless I dislike them.
I have anger issues.
My real name is "Marcus".
I like sonic(Yes I said it).
I'm autistic and I think that's why I can almost never distinguish a "joke" from a "serious statement".
I think only brain-dead people believe in the saying "Family is all you have".
I guess that's it?

Are you talking to me?

My name is flaca for spanish n Jojo for english im a tomboy 

Thank you again to all for posting here. Please continue posting. Just introduce your yourself. I did introduced myself. Enjoy and cheers. Regards to all.
