How? How is it hard ? People just lazy that's all, reading a book also hard .

Especially those with a rating under 1000 , "chess is so hard bla bla bla " . Under 12 hundred or tho you don't have to even try, no study needed at ALL! Just play more games and you are there in no time how hard is that?

I wish that chess was hard and I was special. Better than 80% of the people on a Chess website eh? Truth is I hang pieces left and right and the general public has no idea how to play. Most don’t even know about castling or en passant.

Chess is easy to learn hard to master!! That’s why we think it’s fun.

Lol people are lazy and most wont ever try but to those interested Chess in a game of endless complexity. (Almost every mistake I make seems obvious after I see the answer)

So chess is all about hitting 1200?

Are you good in everything? We were born differently...some people are good in chess on the other hand they may have no clue about musics at all even there are just few notes.

I am one low-rated player here and I am not good at chess, but I'm sure that there are some certain things that I can do it easily while it's hard for you.

I hope you understand my point...I really try to explain it in polite way :)

I think it's just people who don't regularly play the game and compare it to a board game, like say Hungry Hippos or Doggy Doo, who think its hard.

1000 , 11 hundred good at chess? EVERYONE can get to this rating , even mentally ill people , don't talk non sense!

If we were talking about being GM here, then YES you could say something like not everyone good at something, or talented enough or bla bla THEN I could understand you, but reaching 1000 rating or 11 hundred is pure laziness if you can't do that no excuse!

It is true that everyone has some chance to improve in chess and other places of life but not everyone has the motivation.

Exactly, finally someone who's a bit more intelligent.

So that's my point no motivation or no time or no ..... so all that they convert in to an excuse, that chess is hard ! Which is an absolute lie

Chess is a great game. Some ppl take it seriously, good for them. I - for one - reserve the right to be “lazy” and just enjoy myself if I so desire... :-) So... let’s have fun with it and not lose sight of that, shall we? There’s no room for snobbery here...

They are just lazy to read books and study their own games and download or buy chess trainings online and buy or download chess engines and watch youtube videos.

If your a kid with zero responsibilities it's cool to dedicate your free time to studying chess as long as you are able to maintain a 4.0 GPA and get into a decent college. As an adult your first responsibility should be to become a good provider for your family. Instead of playing chess for hours on end spend that time with your wife and children.

@ESP-918: I don't understand people who've created a thousand threads, none of which has attracted even a hundred posts, and haven't given up. You're not good at it, man. Let it go already!  wink.png
