I have had a.members acount for long enough to realize it's a waste of money . No more! Too many engine players to learn anything .

Life is all about improving. Learn about making illegal moves rather than quitting.

En passant ,which allows capturing of the opponent's pawn which advances2 squares initially, by your pawn in the 5th rank immediately is a very very legal move!

              I wish you'd make up your mind. Are you gonna stay, or are you gonna go??   I have to finish this post and I don't know how. If your staying, we'll help you with the rules and the moves; If your done and your leaving, we'll insult you on the way out.  "What's it gonna be Edith, you got 5 secs to change, now make it quick".

Gotta be a troll thread, OP has played 3400+ games on the site. Don't believe for a second he could play that many and still not know en passant

It could be, his blitz rating is 800.

Only in the US, every other English speaking country puts them outside, just like periods.

So why whinge about that en passant?

See the pun there?

Just play QxQ, and after King retakes, fork the King and Rook with the Knight.

Ah, now I see the 800 grades.

Hey dudes, you are missing a number from the front of your grades!

oh, my name is very fitting for this topic ^^.

enpassant is a very nice move that can only be used every so often, and is one of the 3 special moves in chess (the other 2 being castling and promotion).

I can understand why you would think that it is an illegal move, but I assure you that this is a special exception to the rule.

I'll show you enpassant here for black and white.

 
dxe6 and cxb3 are examples are enpassant.

I totally agree. There are too many bugs. Yesterday, I had an oponent who played his king from e8 to g8 (in ONE move!!!). And then he even jumped with his rook from h8 to f8 (OVER THE KING!!!!!) Can you believe it?

I've had a problem where my opponents piece doesn't move on the screen when my opponent moves. This probably results in moves that look like illegal moves when the piece finally does move on the screen it looks like an illegal move although it was actually done in several moves. Have lost a few games because of this problem.
