I was surprised at the level of idiocracy (basic social media nonsense) in these forums when I joined last month.
I'm 100% disabled due to spine injury, so playing a word game in a "non topic" thread gets my brain thinking about vocabulary. But still, I found this an odd place to be playing a word game; and even that thread has people talking back and forth rather than staying on topic.
My biggest question to chess.com is, why is there even a place for non chess related questions in the forum section? Save that for Facebook or other social media sights that cater to such queries.
I would prefer this to be a chess forum, period. If people want to be friends and strike up a non topic communication in a questions's comment area, they have the option to be "Friends" and take their conversation to their private account areas.
Just my thoughts. I really was surprised at the lack of respect and forum moderation when I first joined.
