My old and new way of playing chess.

Hello,

I have not been on for awhile, here is why.

The last time I was on, a lot of people were giving me advice about my games I was posting against a computer. I actually misunderstood what everyone was saying, and I thought I was being bullied. That is why I havent been posting in awhile.

I was thinking back on what you guys said today, and I realize now that I was not being bullied, but I was being helped.

I apologize for the misunderstanding, and I want to thank you all that helped me for helping me out. I appreciate it.

I decided to try the advice you guys gave me, as well as my old way of playing, seeing if there was a difference.

Here is a game as I normally play:

Pretty bad, I know. Now, here is a game with the advice you guys gave me. The advice you all gave me was to "try and figure out what the opponent is doing, develop and conserve pieces, and always watch where your opponent may move next."

Anyway, I am exercising my mind to develop good chess habits by practicing with a computer. When I feel I am ready, I will play some real people.

Again, thanks for helping me out, guys. I appreciate it.

Regards,

Jared
