Chess has no future

Sounds like you are being more than a little bit melodramatic. Your online rating is 1800+, which is already much higher than a majority of players will ever attain. From your photo, you look pretty young. You should keep working on your game and see if you can get a bit further.

Thanks Robert I appreciate that. There are a lot of things I like about chess. it's funny because where I live no one plays. I go so far to say I'm the best player in my small town that I know of. I had this friend who moved that was really good. He moved to San Fransisco. Before he did he showed up to my house in a brand new car he bought after winning in Reno. I thought that was really neat. I am being childish, but it's more than that. I'm in some kind of slump and seeking attention. Its Because I'm depressed about my current situation, but I'll get through it. :)
Good luck - you sound like a nice guy. Brave to enter the bear pit here too. Chess makes me feel stupid too sometimes, but then, just occasionally, you play a move and think - yeah, that was ok - I'm not so bad at this.

I been playing chess on and off for years, and I think chess is still growing. I dont know or care if evers becomes more popular than golf or tennis but those who don't play are missing out on the best game on the planet IMO.
I love it! I welcome it! I cherish it! ...when people underestimate me in everything I do !!!
