I used to ignore the comments. However I think of other players and how they may be impacted by negative comments. There needs to be some accountability.
Some comments directed at me include the following .
“Die of cancer”
“ I hate Americans”
“American filth”
” All speed and nothing else”
”No skill”
”All speed and nothing else” This one sounds familiar. In my case, I received the comment from none other than one of my favourite content creators, Nelson Li Lopez. It seems like even public figures aren't immune to this sort of behaviour.
He said this in a youtube video or in the actual chat box during one of your games ? that seems out of character as he is one of the better and less neurotic chess content providers.
One thing that does amaze me is that even at the very top level, the Grandmasters and super Grandmasters, all seem to suffer from chess rage, you'd think that the further up the food chain you go that the more the players would be more adept at being psychologically conditioned to deal with losses and tilt.
If my opponent ever commented to me that he "hates Americans." Then I would just assume that he meant that he hates South Americans. Because come on, nobody can ate Americans from the USA. Everybody knows that we are the greatest country on this planet. USA! USA! USA!
idk if you're being ironic or not but maybe, just maybe, your comment is the reason why ppl worldwide generally dislike americans (the less intelligent ones at least).
