I am amused that the gab is advocating for less gabbing.
A TALLY OF DATABASE-USERS & NON-USERS
Sort:
Duffer1965 you seem to get aroused very easy,what's your secret,lol! 
How about a "thegab03 vs. duffer1965" chess match, best of three? 
Non-user, if people can't use databases in over-the-board tournaments, they shouldn't be allowed to in online games either.
non-users-you don't read a chess book at all while you playing?

Me bro,personnaly No! 
I don't have the need!
I use Nunn's Chess Openings and MCO which I can study also in my spare time (when I am not playing games
) - good databases are not free and cost money, which I do not want to spend as I cannot study them like a book.

I do not use databases or books during a game, that is just a crutch if I've ever heard of one. Not that there is anything wrong with it in correspondence chess as rules are rules so I'd never complain about my opponent using them... but yea a chess player doesn't seem very formidable to me if he needs to consult data outside of his own brain to choose his moves. That's just me though!
