My School Just Banned Chess.com

School days are short until graduate school. Then classes sometimes start at 6:00 pm, continue until 9:30 pm in the classsroom, and another three to four hours in the pub after the professor goes home. Pure paradise! Mornings are spent teaching, grading, and reading the stuff you argue about all night long.

I mean, bro. U don't go to school to play chess. I'm not a big favor of lessons, but if that's avoiding kids to learn, let it stay like that. There's other things better than sitting on the phone and playng chess 4 i dunno 5 hour. Go outside and touch some grass bro. We had a chess tournament today in school and half of the school was there to watch the tournement exept 4 me and my buddy. I mean, chess.com getting banned in school doesnt change a small particle.

chess is a good thing and the fact that you must not have a chess club completely eliminates the fact of "do your work". that means that they have no chess-related events to look up to. Kids would put up their phones to do it on-the-board.

I mean, do they have to? Just bcs some chess nerds like chess doesn't mean we have to change the school.

bro speak for yourself, if you dont like chess then why are you here. What do you think middle and high schoolers would rather do: listen to boring stupid lecctures all day long, or play chess to give themselves a break?

Bro schools need to change. We have no chess club. But I'm part of student council, and we are trying to start clubs.

Yeah like u said, chess clubs. That guy who started the argument says his school banned chess.com bcs kids played on LESSONS. In my school, we have a chess club and we had a tournement just TODAY. We played during lunch. So they banned chess.com bcs kids play on the lessons. Ur club idea is good. I hope u achieve what u want.

School is easy, as I said, nobody cares about an education, just seat time for all.

Like I said, my school also banned Chess.com, but I think we're still able to access it as long as we're not using the school's wifi

Now they have unbanned it for us, but when it was banned the whole website was shut down. Wifi didn't matter
