one needs to replace the forum posts which lives beyond five messages.

after five posts the point of the original post is lost.

if the post is good, one may start a fresh post to continue the same point.

 

but to read "what are you listening to ?"..or "is boris spassky the greatest russian of all time ? ...is quite a boring post.

for posts to be lively, they must be germane.

to be germane they must be germane.

brevity allows germaness.

five posts per posts and then the post is locked.

if it was a really good post, after six posts, then let the seventh person start/continue the post.

You have 10 rules for 5 to 7 posts, go crazy and come up with 20 rules for a 100 posts.

Yes the title says "If you could fix one thing on chess.com, what would it be?" I have to ask you though, what problem do you have with the option chess.com has provided to discuss movies, songs, funny things in life, sad things in life, and whatever 11 million chess players might want to talk about that is civilized?

 Damn u really suck at blitz chess!!!!!!!!!!!

1123 blitz rating???   Thats so pathetic.  Why R u picking a fight with me when u know that Im such a superior player compared to u.

Since Im such a superior player ur views dont hold much weight when it comes to contradicting my statements.  If u understood chess better than me or if u were a more skillful player, then u should be able to raise ur rating higher than mine.  Right?  Fact is that like so many other trolls, u suck at chess!!!!! :)  That fact makes me happy.

@leiph15  What you have pointed out is what people do, when it crosses the line they will be sent to the outer darkness of chess.com. Why don't you just avoid what you don't like?

Civilized discussion about music, movies, funny things in life, would be fine. I wouldn't be a TOTAL nazi mod lol.

Why don't you use a free online spell checker? Tongue Out

Genie in a bottle gives me 1 wish. The point in asking was to get a wide range of opinions right?

960, bughouse, or crazyhouse in live chess? Awesome. Go for it.

Blocking someone doesn't let them send you trophies and you can't see their posts or topics in the forum? Also good suggestions.

I thnik the main reason the spellcheck not working is it was for ages and then one day it stoped working. (speeling errors intentional)

Yes it was and then it wasn't and then the fix has been delayed until chess.com gets 5 million Diamond memberships.

You know what, sometimes I don't want to see my wife so I get in my truck and drive off, if you get my point.

And when your wife is at a party with 50 people you do want to see?

Anyway, Mr. dismiss a suggestion with a practical solution, I dont want to hear it from the guy who said spell check lol.

I would not close cheaters accounts but at the same time i would only allow them to play between them by creating special cheaters pools.I would also grant them a provisional 2700 rating.

I know I already used up my "One Thing"; but I would sure like it if when I am on chat with another player that it would be possibe to go back and edit mistakes out and not appear to be a complete Dunce.
