Is it worth trying to discuss Chess on here anymore?

Threads with ridiculous claims made by self-important patzers do tend to be trolled. Just saying.

This isn't a reference to anyone in particular, mind you. 

If you feel offended by what I say here, then I was certainly talking about you, though :-)

Go on...

I think the posts above proves his point?

Ok ok let's be seeerious. Vlad, the content of a thread dictates it's popularity with the membership, those that appeal to the masses are viewed more, commented on more, and thus stay at the top of the list. Those that don't appeal to the masses sink down into the sewer, no matter how good, relivant, brainy, or of vital importance to the world the OP "thinks" it is. What you think is quality chess discussion just may be boring garbage to others, like it or not.

I think so too... :-) !!!!

It's like - look who bites the bait :-)

I know everything.  I just can't remember it all at the same time.  What's with all the sirens.  I can't think with all sirens.

Vladimir they are unhappy people. Why? Because all is programmed, the winners, the serious careers and the club champs either, by the GodMaster. Okay they exaggerate when they say that He controls everything that progresses but anyway, anything big owns to His mercy mole activity!

Thanks for the comment.

its a nice game you play Vlad.

just keep in mind, most of us are here for the jokes.

 

to get REALLY serious advice- the best idea is pay up and get a coach.

The thing is, I want to be able to discuss chess literature, chess philosophy, and chess theory, not just improve skill wise. I enjoy discussing chess as much as I love a good tactics puzzle or a Kingscrusher video. I thought the forums would be a perfect place to do this.

Older guy says to his doctor.  Hey doc can you give me a prescription to get rid of this bald spot.  Doctor doesn't even look at him and says, "...just keep using what you're using on your ears, nose and eyebrows!

Vlad is correct. Discussing chess is not exclusive to experts and masters. It is just a game after all so anyone can participate.

Thank you for the support Bong. It's great to have a passionate contributor like yourself in the forums.

Agreed and he is free to do so, but he isn't doing so here, is he? Anyone reading his post can see he thinks very highly of himself, and he has the right to be delusional, as we all do. However when one posts publicially, one should expect reply and know not all replies will be in agreement, and some may well attack the source. Vlad may be better off just keeping a journal so no one can interrupt his great, vast, contribution to the world. Personally, I won't add to the post count of this pathetic cry for validation anymore....

Vlad please don't misunderstand.  The reality is that every mind is a universe.  It is sometimes very difficult to reach a parallel perspective with that other mind.  And, if at any point during, and after the communication you offend in ways that you are not even aware of, well good luck with that individual.

Nothing wrong with serious conversation, but conversation that actually goes to the trouble of professing its (self-ascribed) seriousness and importance at the outset tends to, justifiably, elicit a few raised eyebrows and sarcastic jabs.

The overwhelming majority of us here make idiots of ourselves on a regular basis, intentionally or not, but apparently only some of that overwhelming majority realizes it.

 

All the same, excellent work on an entertaining thread, Vlad.  Ain't got no hate for you. 

 

+1 to Bonsai and solskytz.

+2 to Vlad and 2Q for making it possible for Bonsai and solskytz to earn their +1.
